术语“手工艺年代”的详细信息

英译术语:

craft age

汉语语境:

随着廉价的外国机制商品大量涌入，在手工艺年代叱咤风云的中国传统工艺已在竞争中处于劣势。辛亥革命后，宫廷工场由萧条惨淡到彻底解体。失去禁锢的良工巧匠在民间组织起商会、工场或作坊，重操旧业，使曾经是封闭的宫廷工艺生产迅速社会化、商品化。尽管手工产品难以和机制产品抗衡，传统工艺在民国早期一度还有所发展。

英语语境:

With the influx of cheap machine-made foreign goods, the all-powerful traditional Chinese crafts during the craft age were at a disadvantage in the competition. After the Revolution of 1911, the palace workshop was completely disintegrated by the depression. Many skilled craftsmen, freed from the confinement, set up workshops and made crafts again, which made it possible to quickly socialize and commercialize the court crafts production. Although it was difficult for hand-made crafts to compete with machine-made products, traditional technology in the early stage of the Republic of China was developed to some degree.
