【摘要】 传统翻译研究注重作者和文本的地位,认为翻译就是译者力图再现作者和文本的“真实意图”。译者被置于从属的地位,译者的主观能动性被忽视。随着西方哲学的语言学转向和翻译研究的文化转向,译者主体性研究逐渐兴起,翻译研究从规范走向描写,从微观的内部研究扩展到宏观的外部研究。 当代翻译研究正从纯语言层面的探讨,拓展到从文化、社会、历史等多角度进行的研究。文艺学、语言学、哲学、社会学、文化学等各类学科的理论被应用到译学研究领域,构成了翻译学作为一门边缘学科的特色。在这一系列学科理论中,接受理论这一文学批评理论是极具生命力和创造力的。接受理论作为对“作者中心”范式和“文本中心”范式的反拨而登上历史舞台。该理论重视读者的地位,认为文学作品只有在被读者接受之后,才能最后完成。接受理论对读者的重视,与传统理论对读者的忽略形成鲜明的对比。本文作者尝试以接受理论为框架,从历史文化的宏观角度,以读者介入为切入点,来研究和分析文学翻译过程中的读者介入。 本文所说的读者包括两类:首先是作为读者的译者,其次是译者心目中的读者。接受理论中的“读者主体性”,在此体现为“译者主体性”和“译者与读者的主体间性”。本文认为,在翻译选材和翻译策略选择过程中,各翻译主体性和主体间性均得到充分体现。 本文运用的接受理论以姚斯和伊瑟尔为代表的康斯坦茨学派的理论为主,其重要概念包括“期待视野”和“召唤结构”。该理论在关注读者主体的同时,并未忽视其他主体,尤其是文本主体。 论文由六部分组成。一、引言。该部分简要介绍了选题的由来、理论框架、研究的范畴和目的以及步骤与方法。二、文献综述。该部分对代表人物及其观点的研究现状和不足作了概要介绍。三、接受理论与文学翻译。该部分阐释了接受理论视角下的文学翻译,廓清了文
【Abstract】 Much attention is paid to the status of the original text writer and the original text by traditional translation studies, which regard translation as the reproduction of "the real intention" of the original text writer and the original text through the translator’s endeavor. The translator is put in a subordinate position, its subjective initiative by and large ignored. With the linguistic turn in western philosophy and the cultural turn in western translation studies, the research on the translator’s subjectivity gradually emerges, and translation studies are undergoing the transformation from a prescriptive to a descriptive approach, from microscopic internal research to macroscopic external research.Contemporary translation studies are developing from the inquiry of a pure language level to the research in cultural and socio-historical perspective. The theories of various disciplines such as literature and art, linguistics, philosophy, sociology and cultural studies are applied to translation studies, constituting the characteristic of translation studies as an interdisciplinary subject. Among the series of disciplinary theories, reception theory as a theory of literary criticism is conspicuous. This theory emerges as a reaction to "the writer-oriented" paradigm and "the text-oriented" paradigm of the traditional critical approach and attaches importance to the status of the reader, maintaining that a literary work will not be finished until it is accepted by the reader. The attention paid to the reader by reception theory is in sharp contrast to the neglect of the reader in traditional translation theories. Taking reception theory as its theoretical framework, the author of this thesis attempts to investigate the reader intervention in literary translation against a historical and cultural background.The reader in this context consists of the translator as a reader of theoriginal text and the anticipated readers of the target text. "The reader’s subjectivity" in reception theory is embodied here in "the translator’s subjectivity" and "the inter-subjectivity between the translator and the reader". The thesis maintains that the translation subjectivity and inter-subjectivity are fully reflected in both the selection of original texts and the choice of the translation strategy.Reception theory as used in this thesis, is what is put forth by the Constance School represented by Hans Robert Jauss and Wolfgang Iser, its important concept including "horizon of expectations" and "appealing structure". While the subject of the reader is the concern of reception theory, other subjects, especially the subject of the text, are not neglected.The thesis consists of six parts. The first part, the Introduction introduces the background, theoretical framework, scope, purpose, procedure and methodology of the research. Chapter One gives a literature review of the subject under discussion. Chapter Two discusses the relationship between reception theory and literary translation. Chapter Three demonstrates the selection of original texts from the perspective of reception theory. Chapter Four analyzes the factors that intervene in the choice of translation strategy. The conclusion recapitulates the main ideas of the thesis by reasserting that the reader intervention in literary translation is an objective fact and that we can gain insight into a variety of phenomena in translation through it. Also, although the translator acts as the essential subject and manipulator in selecting original texts and choosing the translation strategy, he is under even broader and deeper manipulation of the social, historical and cultural factors of his translating activity.
