국내외 뮤지컬 번역 연구 현황 및 향후 연구 방향

초록

Hong, Jungmin (Dongguk University, Seoul) This study aims to examine the trend of research on musical theatre translation in South Korea and overseas, and to suggest the main focus of future research. This attempt will ultimately help the research on musical theatre translation build on the industrial and academic momentum and therefore position itself as an independent sub-discipline within Translation Studies. Literature review suggests that musical theatre translation has been under-researched in terms of quantity, but the topics, methods and theoretical backgrounds has laid the basic foundation for further research both at home and abroad. Limitations and suggestions in the previous studies show that future research should focus on the specificity of the musical theatre genre, the characteristics of each country or culture’s musical theatre industry and meta-research.
