iv??摘要??
中国文学走出去翻译在其中的作用不可小劇。受到中国文学外译热潮和《H??
体》荣获雨果奖的启发,笔者聚焦于中国科幻小说的英译,选取了具有代表性的??
《兰体》为研究对象,探讨影响整个翻译过程中的因素,主要包括文本的选择、??
译者的确立、译者受到的操级和对译文的处巧,1^]1及译文的最终出版与接受。文??
章首先介绍了相关背景,阐述科幻小说在中国的发展历程,指明当下中国科幻小??
说的对外译介的幡起,并对代表作品《兰体》及英译的相关文献进行梳理,概述??
前人的研究并进行总结和评鉴,得出本文的研究视角。本研充旨在勒菲弗尔关于??
操纵翻译的理论观的指导下展开个案《H体》英译的描述性研究,宏观探讨整个??
翻译过程的影响因素,微观上具体分析译者对译文的处理,揭示其采取的翻译方??
法和策略。??
作为操纵理论的代表人物之一,勒菲弗尔超越语言层面,将翻译置于广阔的??
文化背景中,认为翻译从始至终都会受到文学系统内外两方面的影响,指出操纵??
翻译的因素。本文主要围绕兰大操纵因素一赞助人,意识形态和诗学观展开研??
究:(1)从译介模式出发,分析操纵《H体》英译的赞助人系统,指明具体的赞??
助人,队及这些赞助人对翻译过程的影响。(2)在意识形态下探充具体的影响因??
素,主要讨论科幻知识,中国政治和西方女性主义思想H大约束对译者的影咱,??
通过实例论证分析译者受到的操纵和其对译文的处理。(3)诗学观方面则主要从??
篇章结构,传统文化负载词和人物形象塑造兰个维度出发探讨译者对译文的处理??
及具体采取的翻译方法和翻译策略。??
通过分析个案的整个翻译过程,研究发现:(1)译者在翻译过程中受到原作??
作者,文学代理机构和出版社的影响,体现在知名的原文作者影响翻译文本的选??
择,图书进出曰公司对科幻小说《H体》翻译的发起和译者的确定,英文出版社??
操纵译文的出版与接受。(2)意识形态的操纵具体体现在科幻知识促使译者忠实??
于原文又在科幻和专业知识方面力求精确:中国政治要求译者既体现原文的政治??
特点和内涵,又保证译文清晰易懂:女性主义思想要求译者对相关原文进行适当??
调整,避免思想冲突,适应西方女性思潮。(3)诗学层面则分析了译者对篇章结??
构,文化负载词语和人物塑造的具体处理。译者调整篇章结构,合并小节,将原??
V??文分成呈大章,并将关于文化大革命的叙述作为小说的背景。对于传统文化负载??
词语,译者寻求相对应的英语表达W及采用固定用法来帮助读者理解。人物塑造??
上,译者尽量贴合目标语的表达,生动地再现了原文塑造的人物形象。在《=体》??
的翻译实践中,译者似乎很大程度上受到了科幻小说翻译"科幻性""文学性"??
和"通俗性"兰大标准的影响。在科幻知识方面尽量忠实原文,符合科幻性的标??
准:对中国文化和人物形象塑造适当添加脚注,W归化为主,兼顾异化。用増补、??
省略等翻译策略使译文通俗易懂,保留原文中的文化特色,但也尽量贴合国外读??
者的习惯,达到文学性和通俗性。??
总的来说,本研究H大操纵因素指导下影响分析了科幻小说《H体》翻译的??
具体因素。赞助人系统主要在宏观方面操纵的文本选择,译者的确立和译文的出??
版与接受。意识形态和诗学观对翻译的操级尤为突出,主要体现在对译文的微观??
处理上。译者受到意识形态下特定要素的限定和主流诗学观的影响,采取一定的??
翻译方法和策略,妥善处理译文。目前,对中国科幻小说翻译的研究目前尚且不??
多,本文作为其中之一,期望可W从源文的和译者的确立,文学中介及国外出版??
社的选择,W及科幻小说特定内容的处理对后来中国科幻小说的译介和研巧提供??
一定的借鉴,推动中国科幻小说走出去。??
