With globalisation and the proliferation of new forms of entertainment such as DVD and pay-perview TV, the demand for dubbing and subtitling has been growing exponentially. This book is a collection of selected papers presented at the "International Conference on Dubbing and Subtitling in a World Context" organized by the Department of Translation of The Chinese University of Hong Kong. In the book, scholars and professionals from Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Italy, Australia, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Hong Kong outline the landscape of the profession from a world perspective. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to have a deep understanding of the history, theory and practice of dubbing and subtitling.

This book is an anthology of the poems written by fourteen poets hailing from Albania, Egypt, Germany, Japan, Mexico, the United States, and the Great China regions of Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. The poets will assemble in Hong Kong in November 2009 in a gala celebration of poetry and recitation - International Poetry Nights in Hong Kong, the biggest and first such gathering in the territory's history. The poems, selected by the poets themselves, are published in their original languages as well as Chinese and English.

The present English-Chinese bilingual edition is the complete first book of poems written by Nobel Prize winner Gao Xingjian. His poems offer an array of snapshots over various themes where politics, dreams, and metaphysical concerns are mixed. With original art works by Gao, this collection advances his innovative experiments in poetry across cultural boundaries.

International Poetry Nights in Hong Kong (IPNHK) is an award-winning biennial poetry festival established by renowned contemporary Chinese poet Bei Dao. Since its debut in 2009 in Hong Kong, IPNHK has become the most influential series of international poetry events in the sinophone areas, delivered internationally acclaimed poets’ thoughts and ideas about poetry to contemporary China, and stimulated Chinese poets’ reflection upon their own conditions of reading world poetry. Following the enormous success of previous editions, IPNHK’s 2017 event is scheduled to happen between 22–26 November in Hong Kong, with the theme “Ancient Enmity”, and invites more than twenty poets and lyricists from different parts of the world to share and read their works, in the hope of encouraging exchange among poets and lyricists. Poets include Gabeba Baderoon (South Africa), Javier Bello (Chile), Chen Dongdong (China), Jérôme Game (France), Major Jackson (US), George Szirtes (UK), Anja Utler (Germany), Haris Vlavianos (Greece) and others. The IPNHK anthology includes selections of the most internationally acclaimed contemporary poetry by the invited poets, accompanied by unique Chinese and English translations in bilingual or trilingual formats.
