Report on the First Summer School published by East Journal of Translation.

The RCT held its first Summer School on Chinese Translation History on 21–25 June 2009 in Guangzhou, in collaboration with Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. The event was a tremendous success, attracting over 40 participants from China, Taiwan, Macau and Hong Kong. Held over a period of one week, the programme for the Summer School included intensive lectures on key topics delivered by prominent scholars in the translation discipline, workshops and thorough discussions amongst participants.
