Reduplicated Word’s Employment in Chinese Children’s Literature Translation –Wormwood Flowers Eaten by the Deerlet_英语论文

摘要

优秀的儿童文学作品贴近儿童心理，能够真实反映中国儿童的生活状况和成长状态，这类的文学作品成为了中国文学作品译出时的重点对象。在这些优秀的儿童文学作品中自然少不了叠词，因为叠词注重节奏美、语言流畅，通俗易懂，不仅易于儿童接受与理解，而且提升了孩子们的阅读兴趣。所以，在为我国优秀文学作品“走出去”而感到高兴的同时，也要考虑到译出作品中叠词是如何翻译的，国外作家的译本能否传达原文本的语言魅力及作者的思想。本文就从中国译出的优秀儿童文学作品《小鹿吃过的荻花》分析入手，重点从原文本和译本中叠词进行对比研究，看译本中对叠词的翻译是否保留了原本中的叠词生动活泼、朗朗上口等一系列特征。希望本研究得出的结论可以帮助小读者们享受多元文化,更深切地认知和感受这个五彩缤纷的世界。同时，也希望本研究得出的结论可以给儿童文学翻译工作者带来积极的帮助和实际的指导意义。
