| Abstract | This paper delves into the literary translations featured in the late Qing magazine, Chinese and Foreign Stories, in Guangzhou and Hong Kong from 1906 to 1908. The magazine was a significant publication in both Lingnan popular literature and Hong Kong literature studies. During the aforementioned period, the magazine underwent three name changes and published a total of 11 English stories. Prior studies have primarily focused on the Chinese translations. This paper, on the other hand, identifies the English sources of seven stories, providing a more precise comparison and understanding of the Chinese translations in the magazine. Most of these stories are detective fiction. Therefore, the paper also explores the reception and appreciation of Western detective fiction in the Lingnan area, thus broadening our comprehension of the extent of the reception of Victorian literature by the late Qing literati. |
