  For example, Alfred Huang cited his friend Bill Smith’s words in the acknowledgements of his new translation: “For the past fifty years Richard Wilhelm’s translation of the I Ching has been the standard. I hope your book will be the standard for the next fifty years.” (Alfred Huang, The Complete I Ching, Vermont: Versa Press, inc.,1998, p.viii) Edward L. Shaughnessy said regrettably at the end of his preface to the translation of the recently discovered manuscripts of the Yijing: “In 1913, when Richard Wilhelm began his now celebrated translation of the Changes, he and his mentor, Lao Naixuan, could approach the text with the confidence that it not only encapsulated all the world but that it was moreover intelligible. Now, a hundred years later, we are still learning just how little we really know about the Changes and the world that produced it.” (Edward Shaughnessy, Unearthing the Changes, New York: Columbia University Press, 2014, p.xx).

  The term “qiaoyi transmitters” is taken from the study of semiotics but focuses more on the meaning and spirit instead of the form of a text. In this sense it is slightly different from “translators” or “interpreters” in translation studies. “Qiaoyi patronage” is borrowed from Andre Lefevere, which stresses the ideological, the economic and the status components of the “patronage”, and highlights the importance of ideology. (Andre Lefevere, Translation, Rewriting and the Manipulation of Literary Fame, Shanghai: Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press, 2003, pp.16-17. “Qiaoyi environment” is adapted from the “initial circumstances” and “conditions of acceptance” used by Edward Said in discussing traveling theory, with more concentration on the receivers’ side. (Edward Said, “Traveling Theory” in The World, the Text and the Critic, Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1983, pp. 226-227).
