Up from Zero
This book recounts the history of Protestant missionaries in Northern China. It is written by Anna Seward Pruitt who to honor the example of a beloved cousin that died in China, Anna Seward went to China as a missionary in the late 1880's. She stayed there until the mid 1930's with her husband Cicero Washington Pruitt became among the longest serving Protestant missionaries there.
Translation and Cultural Change
History tells us that translation plays a part in the development of all cultures. Historical cases also show us repeatedly that translated works which had real social and cultural impact often bear little resemblance to the idealized concept of a 'good translation'.

This book is dedicated to exploring some of the factors in the interplay of culture and translation, with an emphasis on translation activities outside the Anglo-European tradition, particularly in China and Japan.
