“Sophy Poetry & Translation Website”—From the Small Minority to the Public,
over the Mountains of International Excellent Poetry
By Sophy Chen
“Sophy Poetry & Translation Website” has been opened more than a year at the end of 2014, which greatly encouraged Sophy Chen’s original poetry writing and promoted her poetry translation.
“Sophy Poetry & Translation Website”, http://www.sophypoetry.com, is the first international poetry translation website of China, which is organized in Sophy Chen’s own name as a translator and poetess, in Chinese-English, English or French languages, and which is committed to translate and promote the excellent Chinese poetry and excellent international poetry.

“苏菲诗歌&翻译网”——
作者：苏菲（Sophy Chen）
“苏菲诗歌&翻译网”从2014年底开通至今已有一年多时间，给苏菲的诗歌原创和诗歌翻译带来极大的鼓励和推动。
“苏菲诗歌&翻译网”http://www.sophypoetry.com 是中国首家以翻译家、诗人的个人名义主办、汉英（法）对照的国际诗歌翻译网，致力于中国优秀诗歌的翻译与国际化推广，同时致力于国际优秀诗歌的翻译与传播。
网站除个别栏目的诗歌作品由其他翻译家翻译之外，所有英汉—汉英对照诗歌作品均由苏菲独立翻译而成。
“苏菲诗歌&翻译网”秉持“治学严谨、精益求精、形神兼备”的诗歌翻译理念，刊载苏菲本人独立翻译完成的双语对照诗歌作品，推动精品诗歌的国际化。
2014年10月8日首先开通汉英对照版网站，由苏菲（SOPHY CHEN）陈丽华，本人编辑上线；计划于近期，开通纯英文版网站和英语国际诗歌论坛，最后再开通法文版网站。之后将不定期推出苏菲诗歌翻译网刊。
“苏菲诗歌&翻译网”不是苏菲一个人的网站，而是苏菲以诗歌翻译者的一己之力，试图联合国内外最优秀的翻译家，为国内外广大诗歌界人士提供文本翻译和在线的无国界传播的一次有益尝试。
希望通过这一个站点，折射出当今国内诗歌翻译走向国际，国际诗歌和国外翻译家互融共通的趋势。
