摘要

随着世界各地加快发展，国与国之间的交流也日益密切，文化交流也日渐增多。使用不同语言的人也有着不同的社会与文化背景，而文化交流离不开语言的交流，因为语言是文化的载体，是文化的集中。与此同时，文化是语言的内蕴，语言的可解必然意味着文化的可译。因此翻译是不同文化之间理解与交流的必要步骤。我国跟西方世界早在西汉时期就与外国开始了贸易交易，速进了我国在翻译上的研究和发展。最近，随着新疆经济社会的发展，当地维吾尔族与英语言语者的交流日益增多，对于英、维跨文化研究的要求也日益迫切，而由于地理位置、思维习惯、社会环境、历史文化等不同的文化差异等原因，英维跨文化发展还存在较大的困难，进而给文学翻译带来一定的阻碍和影响。而这也是英语学习者难以克服的，尤其是二语为汉语的维吾尔语言学者。作者通过研究语言文学翻译在英译汉、英译维中文化交流，分析文化交流在文学翻译中的影响，以此进一步为英译维文学作品找出借鉴的方法，来推进新疆英译汉文学作品发展和英维文化交流的繁荣。
