Chen Chongren is an assistant professor in the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures at National Taiwan University. He graduated from the Department of English at National Chengchi University and the Graduate Institute of Foreign Languages and Literatures at National Taiwan University. Publicly available information about him is limited: details of his life, dates of birth and death, and nationality are not clearly documented, and his confirmed role is chiefly that of a translator and teaching researcher in the field of foreign literature. Among his known works, he has translated Borges's This Craft of Verse and related writings; two of his works are included in the collection, both classified under foreign literature, with This Craft of Verse as a representative title. His translation interests center on Latin American literature that combines speculative thought with poetic expression, and his translations attend to the argumentative thread and linguistic texture of the originals, offering Chinese-language readers a readable reference for understanding Borges's poetics.
