摘要:

本文以“文本 - 行为 - 社会”三位一体的译者行为评价系统为理论视角,以赛珍珠《水浒传》英译本为研究对象,结合其他平行译本进行对比分析,在“文本维”“行为维”“社会维”及其对应的3个评价视域层面对赛珍珠的译者行为展开研究。研究发现,赛珍珠的翻译行为受其特有的跨文化惯习影响,其翻译目的与译文接受者和接受环境密切相关,同时,意识形态的矛盾又造就了赛珍珠复杂的文化立场,最终使得其翻译行为呈现出不一致性。在跨文化惯习、翻译目的、意识形态等多重因素的共同作用下,赛珍珠形成了“求真性务实”的翻译风格。赛珍珠独特的翻译风格和翻译策略对当下中国形象的塑造和中国文学、中国文化的对外传播具有积极的借鉴意义。

Abstract:

The “text-behavior-society” trinity evaluation system of translator behavior is applied in this paper to examine Pearl S. Buck’s translator behavior through her work All Men Are Brothers based on comparative studies with parallel versions based on textual, behavioral, and social dimensions. Influenced by her distinctive cross-cultural habitus, Pearl S. Buck’s translator behavior was further guided by her translation purposes, which were closely related to the target readership and to the reception environment. In addition, three pairs of ideological paradoxes contributed to her complex cultural positioning, which ultimately resulted in a certain degree of inconsistency in her translator behavior. Due to the combined influence of these multiple factors, Buck developed a translation style that was marked by truth-seeking pragmatism. The unique style and strategies of her translation provide valuable insights for the dissemination of Chinese images and culture.
