While translation studies primarily focuses on the verbal texts or the translated texts in excavating the mediated traces of the translation players, recent paratextual researches in translation studies have pinpointed the key roles fo the paratexts, particularly in mainfesting the purposeful intervention of the translation players in appropriating the reception of the translation in the target culture (Watts 2000:29-45). This paper aims to argue that aside from textual analysis of the translated text, the paratexts are thought to contain vital clues for the researchers to infer or understand the translational phenomena absent or implicit in the translated text. The paper will place an emphasis on how paratextual materials or paratexts were used in the translation series, Modern Chinese Literature from Taiwan published by Columbia University Press in USA.
