"Faithful to the Original"

"Faithful to the Original" refers to the effort to accurately preserve and convey the original meaning, tone, and intent of a work—such as a text, artwork, or performance—when transforming or translating it into a different form or language. It emphasizes maintaining the integrity of the original source without unnecessary modification or interpretation that could alter its essence. This approach is valued for respecting the creator’s original vision and ensuring that the audience experiences the work as closely as possible to how it was initially intended.
