Abstract:

As the advocator of the “Translator Behavior Study” and the “Translator Behavior Criticism” theory, the author discusses the significance of the Translator Behavior Study and the conscience of school, the basic contents and the approaches, responses from the academic circles to the Translator Behavior Criticism, and the prospects for the Translator Behavior Study and the Translator Behavior Criticism. This article holds the view that the Translator Behavior Study is sustainable and the Translator Behavior Criticism theory needs to be improved to contribute more to Translation Criticism. The relationship between “Translator Behavior Study” and “Translator Behavior Criticism” is that of the research field and its theoretical tool. As a theoretical perspective is required to make Translator Behavior Study more descriptive and accountable, the theory of Translator Behavior Criticism theory comes into being. Obviously, clarifying their relationship is helpful for the forthcoming researchers to broaden their horizons and deepen their research in this field.

Keywords: Translator Behavior Study; Translator Behavior Criticism; tendency; Translation Criticism; Sociology of Translation

摘要:

作为“译者行为研究”和“译者行为批评”的倡导者,作者讨论了译者行为研究的意义与译者行为批评的学派意识、译者行为研究的基本内容和研究路径、学界对于译者行为批评理论的反响,并对译者行为研究和译者行为批评发展进行了展望。本文认为,译者行为研究具有可持续性,而译者行为批评理论也需要不断完善,以便为翻译批评作出更大的贡献。“译者行为研究”与“译者行为批评”是研究领域与研究工具之间的关系。为了使描写和研究做到全面、客观和科学,就需要将其置于科学的理论视域内,用一定的理论工具加以描写和解释,因此译者行为批评应运而生。分清二者之间的关系,将有助于后来的学者拓宽研究的视野,使该领域的研究走向深入。
