Question: Can I republish in RIE a paper which is a translation of a foreign language publication (e.g., Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, etc.)?
Answer: This isn’t really a problem so long as it’s handled properly. Here is the correct procedure. First, the author(s) should obtain a signed permission from the original publisher/journal, after which point they then become the copyright holder of the translated (English) version. Second, they can then sign the Exclusive License Form with Blackwell and publish their article in RIE after going through the editorial process. Third, authors should include a reference to the original article in their translated paper.

A page from Women's Reading published in 1885 during Meiji period (1868-1912). Lesson 28 describes how Mencius' (372 - 289 BC) mother had to move three times in order to give good education to her child. First, they moved near cemetery and Mencius' play was an imitation of funeral ceremonies. Next, they moved to a market place and Mencius was playing with children, imitating merchants. Finally, they moved to a school neighborhood, and Mencius was imitating students learning in the school. |
