【摘要】 典籍英译是推动中国文化海外传播与构建对外话语体系的核心载体和关键路径。然而,当前中国典籍对外译介中存在“传而难播”现象。以《墨子》英译为个案,本文将《诸子典籍英译图书评介汇编》所收12篇核心评介文献作为主要分析对象,梳理其主要译本及英译脉络,结合海外图书馆馆藏数据,剖析影响译本传播效果的因素。研究发现,译者学术声誉、译本选材、出版机构、推广策略及书刊评介对译本的传播效果产生深刻影响。具体而言,葛瑞汉的专题译本因深入阐释墨家逻辑与科学思想而形成独特影响力;张彦的全译本凭借文本完整性与阅读普适性拓展了受众范围;王志民与王安国的合译本则在墨家伦理与政治思想的学术化解读方面具有重要意义。本研究通过分析译介主体、传播策略与评价机制以期完善诸子典籍的国际传播路径,并为中国对外话语体系的学理建构与实践推进提供参照。

【Abstract】 The English translation of classical Chinese texts is a core vehicle and key pathway for promoting Chinese culture overseas and constructing an external discourse system. However,there exists a phenomenon of “transmission without wide dissemination”in the current translation of Chinese classical texts. Taking the English translation of Mozi as a case study,this paper uses the 12 core review articles collected in the Reviews on English Translations of Chinese Classics from Pre-Qin Schools of Thought as the primary analysis focus,outlining the main translations and their translation history. By combining data from overseas library collections,the paper analyzes the factors that influence the effectiveness of translation dissemination. The study finds that the translator’s academic reputation,the selection of translation material,the publishing institutions,promotional strategies and book reviews all profoundly impact the dissemination of translated works. Specifically,Graham’s specialized translation has had a unique impact due to its in-depth explanation of Mohist logic and scientific thought. Johnston’s complete translation has expanded its audience range with its text integrity and readability. And the collaborative translation by Knoblock and Riegel holds significant academic value in the interpretation of Mohist ethics and political thought. By analyzing the translation subjects,dissemination strategies and evaluation mechanisms,this paper aims to improve the international dissemination path of the philosophical classics and provide references for the theoretical construction and practical advancement of China’s external discourse system.
