【摘要】 随着中国对外交流的日益频繁，翻译迎来了崭新的发展机遇和挑战。中国特色政治话语的翻译，因其严肃性、权威性以及经常扮演的对外传达中国立场和观点的重要角色，势必受到一系列因素的限制与约束。由于政治话语翻译经常带有明显的政治性，且受到各种因素的影响，本文尝试通过分析权力、话语与知识之间的关系，探索影响中国特色政治话语翻译的权力关系，并通过大量例证，最终解释这些权力因素是如何影响中国特色政治话语翻译活动中的翻译策略选择的。本文主要采用的描述的研究方法。本文的两个研究问题是从福柯的权力话语理论角度看，中国特色政治话语翻译中究竟体现哪些权力关系，以及在这些权力关系的限制下，译者采取了怎样的翻译策略，取得的效果如何。福柯的权力话语理论系统阐述了权力、话语与知识三者之间的关系。福柯认为，权力无所不在，渗透于人类活动的各个领域；话语是权力的表现，所有的权力都是通过话语的形式得以实现的；权力实际上就是话语的权力，通常在知识的传递过程与话语的控制活动中表现出来。权力不仅包括政治权力，还包括几乎其它一切影响力，如经济、文化等都是权力的重要组成部分。本文的核心章节第四章探讨了权力关系影响中国特色政治话语翻译策略的选择方式。论文从权力话语理论出发，对翻译过程中经常采用的音译加解释、直译、改编、意译等典型的策略进行了解释，并分析了权力关系对中国特色政治话语这一特定文本类型的翻译策略选择所施加的各种影响。作者认为，权力关系对中国特色政治话语翻译策略选择有重要影响，译者时时刻刻有意识或无意识地处于各种权力关系的制约之下，这种有意识或无意识的制约活动最终将对译者的翻译策略选择产生影响。如果译者在翻译中国特色政治话语的过程中能够以权力关系为指导，将能更好地履行翻译职责，达到预期翻译目的。更多还原

【Abstract】 Accompanied by surging international exchanges, translation has witnessed newopportunities and challenges. Featuring seriousness and authoritativeness, the translation ofChinese political discourse, which plays an important role in transmitting China’s views to theworld, is inevitably restricted by a number of factors. The thesis attempts to explore howpower relationship influences translation strategies in translating Chinese political discoursefrom the perspective of Michel Foucault’s Power Discourse Theory. There are two researchquestions in the thesis. The first one is what kind of power relationship exists in translatingChinese political discourse from French philosopher’s Power Discourse Theory. And thesecond one is what translations strategies are adopted by translators in the light of these powerrelationship.Foucault’s Power Discourse theory gives a systematic description of the relationshipbetween the three most important concepts of the theory: power, discourse and knowledge. InFoucault’s theory, power is present in all fields that human exist; Discourse is the presentationof power, and all power realizes itself through discourse; Power, in essence, is the power ofdiscourse, which functions in knowledge transmission and discourse control. power does notonly refer to political power, but all other influences. Economy and culture are also integralparts of “power”.Chapter4, the key chapter of the thesis, attempts to explore how power relationshipaffects strategy selection in the process of translating political discourse with distinctiveChinese features. Some examples of typical translation strategies, such as transliteration plusexplanation, literal translation, adaptation and free translation are presented, and then thethesis gives some explanations as to why these strategies are adopted from Foucault’s PowerDiscourse Theory and analyzes the influences posed by power relationship. The authorbelieves that power relationship poses significant influence on strategy selection in translatingChinese political discourse, and translators are always restricted by power relationshipconsciously or unconsciously. A translator dealing with Chinese political discourse whoalways bears power relationship in mind may fulfill his/her job better.更多还原
