The translation and publication of the Chinese editions of the Collected Works of Marx and Engels constitute a fundamental undertaking for the dissemination and interpretation of Marx and Engels’ writings in China. The first presentation consists of three parts. The first part will introduce the compilation, translation, and publication of the first and second Chinese editions of the Collected Works of Marx and Engels. The second part will take the School of Philosophy at Nanjing University as an example to share insights into academic exchanges and cooperation between Chinese scholars in Marx and Engels studies and their international counterparts. The third part will focus on specific issues arising in the translation process. Taking the Chinese translations of Verdinglichung, Entfremdung, Vergegenständlichung, and Sache and Ding as examples, it will examine various translation controversies and analyze how different translation choices lead to differences in interpretation.
The MEGA Research Group at Nanjing University is an important research group in the field of Marx studies in China. The second presentation will focus on the group’s research methods, its members, and their representative scholarly contributions. The first part will address the group’s research methods. Drawing on modern technological approaches, the group has developed a digital collection and research platform for the preservation and study of original Marx and Engels materials in China. It will also introduce the group’s methods of textual scholarship. The second part will introduce the group’s researchers and their representative scholarly contributions. The group has focused on such texts as the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844, the Economic Manuscripts of 1857–1858, the Note books of Technological Science, the Kreuznach Notebooks, and the London Notebooks. It’s research on these materials has produced distinctive scholarly achievements in China.
