【摘要】 法律翻译受到两种语言不同的国家文化和法律系统的制约,不能看作是从原语到目的语的简单转码,而是在两种法律体系之间进行转换(Sarcevic,1997:13),其中就涉及到包括法庭文件、公司章程、案例报告、出生证、合同等不同种类的法律文本。法律翻译有着相当长的历史渊源,对于人类文明的发展也起到了不可磨灭的促进作用。因此法律翻译研究不仅在学术界受到重视,甚至在政治、经济和社会等也拥有举足轻重的地位。这篇论文是基于实践而写成的《公司章程》翻译项目报告,以目的论为指导,通过对原文的分析和对翻译过程的剖析,验证了翻译理论对于翻译实践的指导意义。第一章描述了翻译项目的背景和客户的要求,并从内容、特点和香港和内陆法律体系的不同点出发分析了项目性质。介绍了该报告的目的、意义和局限性,并讨论了报告写作手法和法律翻译的相关文献。第二章中介绍了该报告的目的、意义和局限性,并讨论了报告写作手法和法律翻译的相关文献。第三章大致总结了翻译工作开始前的准备工作,包括翻译工具的使用、翻译理论的确定以及翻译进度的安排。第四章从法律翻译原则的角度出发详细阐述了翻译过程,并以《公司章程》的原文为材料,分析了计算机辅助翻译在法律翻译中的应用,大胆推测了计算机辅助翻译在未来翻译行业中的广泛应用。第五章是典型问题分析,通过典型例子的分析总结了法律文件中情态动词、常用表达和长难句的分析和可行的翻译方法。最后,文章总结了翻译过程中的学习心得,为法律翻译实践提出了一些可行的建议,并大胆展望了计算机辅助翻译的应用前景。更多还原

【Abstract】 Legal translation is bound by the culture and system of each language; it is not merely transcoding between the source language (SL) and the target language (TL), but also "translation from one legal system into another-from the source legal system into the target legal system"(Sarcevic,1997:13). It involves all the legal texts that are used in various legal settings, whether it is a court, a national or international organization, a law book, a legal report, a birth certificate, a contract, etc.Legal translation, with a long history, plays a critical role in the development of human civilization. Nowadays, legal translation exerts even greater influence on our life with the increasing international cooperation. The significance of legal translation lies not only in the academic area, but also in the political, economic and social areas. Legal translation needs both much practice and the guidance of translation theories.The present report is dedicated to the translation of the articles of association for an international company. With the text of "Memorandum and Articles of Association of XXX Capital Limited" as the main investigative data, this report attempts to scrutinize translational strategies and translational processes within the prerequisite methodological framework of "Skopos Theory".The Skopos Theory provides a function-oriented theoretical framework for translation studies, according to which, four important rules are brought forward, i.e., the Skopos rule, the coherence rule, the fidelity rule and the loyalty rule. In this theoretical framework, the translator plays a crucial role in the translation process.This report, which endeavors to describe the translation of Memorandum and Articles of Association of XXX Limited in a comprehensive and systematic way, attempts to demonstrate the influence of translation theories on translation practice.Chapter One describes the background of the translation project and the requirements of the commissioner. This chapter analyzes the nature of the translation from aspects of the content, features and the difference in legal systems.Chapter Two, which briefly introduces the present report with statement of the problem, defines the purpose and significance of the present report. Description of methodology and literature review lays the foundation for the analysis of the source text.Chapter Three outlines the pre-translation work, i.e. the selection of translation tools, the adoption of translation strategy and the making of translation schedule.Chapter Four explains the language decoding and encoding process from the angles of the translation principles followed during the whole process. In this chapter, the author makes an attempt to demonstrate the applicability of CAT in legal translation.Chapter Five is the illustration of major problems facing the author in the project. This chapter explains in detail the translation of the modal verb "shall", four commonly used conjunctions, and the processing of long and complex sentences.The Conclusion part makes a summary of major content of the report and points out practical solutions for different translation difficulties.This report will appear more practical than theoretical in that it endeavors to depict a translation project with plenty of practical details to demonstrate that translational decisions (general translational orientations on the one hand, and more specific translational strategies on the other) ultimately depends on the nature and the type of source text, and that the translator may resort to translation techniques to overcome difficulties during translation process.更多还原
