摘要

在传统翻译研究中，译者一直被认为是次于文本和作者的角色，因而未能得到充分的研究。20世纪70 年代，西方翻译理论界出现了文化转向，这直接促成了人们的研究方向从原语转到译入语，从语言转到文化。这时，人们对翻译过程有了新的认知，它不单单是一个译者转换语言的简单过程，更是一个译者在一定空间内发挥创造性的复杂过程。于是，译者的主体地位得到了本应有的重视,译者也经历了从默默无闻到为人知晓的漫长过程。

本文以《麦田里的守望者》的两个译本为例，概述了译者主体性的内涵，从译者对原文本的理解和表达两方面看两个译本中的译者主体性。希望通过本文的阐述，推动人们对译者的关注，深化人们对翻译本质的认知，以及进一步提高译者的积极性。

关键词：译者主体性；《麦田里的守望者》；译者理解；译者表达
