Abstract

By means of the documentary analysis method, the paper reviewed domestic and foreign multimodal translation studies systemically. It found that film translation had received the most attention, followed by translation of illustrated texts, advertisement translation and literary translation. Apart from the four topics, multimodal translation studies in other fields were rare. Based on the research status of multimodal translation, the authors believe that present researches still need to be deepen and new areas are worthy of exploration. It is anticipated that scholars responsible for future multimodal translation studies could define “multimodal translation” and its research content, expand its research subject into other fields, and strengthen its theoretical construction, with a view to broadening and deepening multimodal translation studies.
