从译者主体性浅析鲁迅不通顺翻译的风格_英语论文

A Study of Lu Xun’s Rigid Translation Style from the Perspective of Translator’s Subjectivity

摘 要

20世纪上半叶，鲁迅作为中国杰出的作家和翻译家，在翻译过程中为了引进源语文本的词汇和语法结构，创造出独特的不通顺翻译风格。这种不通顺翻译极大地体现了鲁迅对源语文化的包容和接受，实现了其文化主张，并最大限度地彰显了译者主体性。

译者是翻译的主体，也是译作及其文化构建的重要参与者，本文从译者主体性的三个方面，即能动性、受动性、为我性分别对鲁迅的不通顺翻译风格进行探讨。鲁迅的能动性主要体现在他的间接翻译策略及其翻译中的再创造，他对译入语有目的的再创造正是其不通顺翻译风格形成的最重要原因。不通顺翻译风格的受动性，即该翻译风格的限制性，主要体现在鲁迅译本的艰涩难懂及其较低的读者接受率。本文的为我性分析将重点放在鲁迅选择该翻译风格的原因上，并指出鲁迅先生的翻译风格对汉语语言文化产生了深远的影响。

Abstract

Lu Xun, one of the most outstanding writers and translators in the first half of the 20th century, created his unique rigid translation style with the purpose of introducing vocabularies and grammars of the source language into Chinese. This translation style, marked with his special characteristics and demonstrating his subjectivity, reveals his acceptance of original language and its culture and his advocacy in translation. 

This thesis, based on the fact that translators are the creator of the cultures of translation works, analyzes translator’s subjectivity in Lu Xun’s rigid translation style from three aspects, namely subjective initiative, restricts and purposefulness. Indirect translation and re-creation in the process of translation, with the latter directing to the rigid style, are the main elements that reveal Lu Xun’s subjective initiative. Restricts and limitations in his rigid translation style could be summarized as the incomprehensibility of his translation works and his purposefulness, regarding his translation as a purposeful activity, provides an insight to his cultural intention by using rigid translation.
