2.5　Research into Subtitling in China

The previous section emphasized the development of AVT study in the West across a 40-year period,during which time Western scholars built up a relevant theoretical system and obtained practical experience.The objects and perspectives of AVT study in the West have,in turn,diversified and become multidisciplinary.Within Europe,scholars in France,Germany,Italy and Spain focus more on Dubbing,while those in Belgium,Finland,Denmark,Greece and other northern European countries place more emphasis on the study of subtitling.Therefore,it is reasonable to state that scholars in the West,especially those from European countries,have achieved a great deal in AVT study and consequently lead the field globally; whereas the study of AVT started much later in China because TV sets and films were introduced to this country more recently than in the West.This has meant that the study of AVT in China remains insufficient.In the next section,the researcher provides an overview of the study of AVT in China.(https://www.daowen.com)
