【摘要】 诗歌是一种特殊的文学体裁，是形式美和精神美的完美结合，尤其是中国古典诗词则更是如此，它被认为是汉语言的精华所在。在中国古典诗词中，叠字的使用是一种十分常见的修辞手法，这在中国最早的诗歌总集——《诗经》中有突出的表现。据研究，这是由于《诗经》的创作时期是处于中国文学语言形成的初期，中国最初的诗歌形式便是以重叠反复的吟唱为主，就如同儿童在牙牙学语的初期用词是以叠字为主一样。众所周知，中国古典诗词的翻译本来就是一大难题，然而要翻译出这些具有特色鲜明的叠字则更是难上加难。叠字作为中国古典诗词的一个重要组成部分受到了广泛的关注。在快速发展的文化交流中，叠字的翻译业已得到了应有的重视。本文试图以一些脍炙人口的古代诗词中的叠字诗句为例，从翻译美学的角度探讨中国古典诗词中叠字的翻译方法。翻译美学是一个重要的翻译理论，它可以应用到很多领域的翻译中，尤其是诗歌的翻译中。概而言之，翻译美学就是从美学的角度作翻译。本文第一部分首先简要地回顾了国内外翻译理论研究的历史和现状，并对中外翻译理论的美学情结进行了考察。然后简要地阐述了与本文相关的几个翻译美学的重要概念。基于刘宓庆(1996)关于翻译的三个理论，结合笔者的考查，本文认为，翻译的实质应该是求真求美，因而诗歌翻译的标准是实现意义和美学层面上的相似，这就是翻译的实质——求真求美的体现。在本文第二部分中，笔者对中、英文诗歌中叠字的形式及其修辞功能进行了比较研究，发现中、英文虽属于不同语系，彼此之间差异甚大，但在其诗歌中都存在着类似的重叠反复的修辞手段，因而具有一定的可比性。鉴如此，从翻译美学的角度看，对于中国古诗词叠字的翻译，最好是能将其转换成各种形式的英语修辞重复。这便是本文第三部分的内容，是论文的主体。这部分主要是通过实例分析，从翻译美学视角探讨如何将不同类别的中国古诗词中的叠字翻译成各种形式的英语重叠。然而，汉语言博大精深，古诗词中的叠字仍有一些难于译成突出体现其重叠特征的英语。因而在第三章的分类讨论中，作者探讨了一些实难翻译成英语修辞重叠的叠字，如顶真叠字等。基于此，译者就得从神似的角度予以把握，因为翻译实质的基础便是求真。更多还原

【Abstract】 Poetry is a special genre of literature—a kind of perfect combination of both formal and spiritual beauty. It is said that Chinese classical poetry is the essence of Chinese language. And using reduplicated words is a notable figure of speech in it, which can obviously be seen in the earliest poetry anthology The Book of Poetry. Chinese early poems were mostly formed by repetitions and reduplicated words, because these poems were written in an early stage of the formation of Chinese literature language which was not mature at that time. This situation is like that when babies begin to leam to speak. They are always capable of using reduplicated words, such as "papa, mama" and so on.It is difficult to translate poems, especially those with reduplicated words. As an important component of Chinese classical poetry, reduplicated words draw a great deal of attention of linguistics. And with the rapid development of cultural exchanges, the translation relating to reduplicated words is of great importance. Relying on passions to Chinese classical poems, the author has done researches on translations relating to them. Therefore, based on examples in The Book of Poetry and other Chinese classical poems, this thesis focuses on how to translate RWCCP (reduplicated words in Chinese classical poetry) into English from the aesthetic perspective. The author wishes her thesis would make at least some contribution to translation studies and practices.Translation researches have witnessed a long history both at home and abroad. Owing to years of hard work, translation studies have been developed into a trans-disciplinary subject. Translation aesthetics theory is of great significance, for it is practical in many translation areas, especially in poetry translation. In Chapter 1, the author has done a research on translation theories both at home and abroad in retrospect, and analyzed the aesthetic complex of traditional Chinese translation norms. She also introduces several categories of translation aesthetics. Since most definitions of translation are simple descriptions, the author ventures to point out that the nature of translation is to seek truth and beauty for the purpose of making the aim of translation more direct and definite and of stimulating the translators’ aesthetic consciousness. From this perspective, and on the basis of Liu Miqing’s theory - three levels of translation, the author believes that criteria of poetry translation should achieve semantic and aesthetic value, in other words, to reach the semantic level and aesthetic level which demonstrates that the nature of translation is seeking beauty and truth. In Chapter 2, the author has made a comparative survey on both forms and rhetoric effects of reduplicated words in Chinese classical poetry and rhetorical repetitions in English poems. She also categorizes them from different viewpoints. Though there are great differences between Chinese and English, they have the similar figures of speech. So the author considers that RWCCP could be translated into forms of English rhetorical repetitions, which is the main content of the third .chapter, the main body of-this thesis. With. case studies in this chapter, the author has probed into several methods in translating RWCCP of different categories. However, occasionally it is still hard for translators to bring about the desired effect in the above-mentioned three ways. So there is another translation method to choose, namely translating RWCCP into English repetitions at the beginning or at the end of a verse. In doing so, the author thinks it could present part of the reduplicated characteristics, though the form is not as compact as pure reduplicated words.However, there are many reduplicated words which could not be translated into English rhetorical repetitions in that there are too many differences between the two languages and that Chinese is so complicated. Thus English versions can hardly realize the original formal effect and thus a major goal of translation, then, is to achieve the spiritual resemblance.更多还原
