【摘要】： 林纾是中国近代史上一位杰出的翻译家,同时也是中国翻译史上最为独特的一位翻译家。他不懂任何一门外语,却通过笔录他人口述的方式翻译了11个国家98位作家180多种作品。他的译作被后人综称为“林译小说”,其中一部分在他所处的时代产生过很大的影响并获得了许多现代著名作家的赞誉。然而,“林译小说”尽管风行一时并广为阅读,在以原文为中心的翻译观盛行的时期,受到了不少的指责和批评。以原文为中心的传统翻译观认为原文是衡量译作的绝对标准,强调译作对原文的忠实对等。而“林译小说”因其删节,增添或改写之处众多被指为“误译随处可见”,“不忠实于原作”。描述性翻译研究学派认为翻译是多元系统中的一个子系统,是译者在规范约束下对原文的操控或改写。每一次操控或改写都是译者所做的决定,每一个先在的决定都影响随后的决定,因而翻译是一个译者不断做决定的过程。翻译不是唯一的,不存在‘理想的’或‘真实的’翻译”。因此,描述性翻译研究学派认为翻译研究的目的不是判断翻译的对错,确定翻译是否符合我们理想中的翻译,而是在接受译者的翻译为翻译的基础上,分析为什么译者会做出这样的决定,是哪些因素的影响导致了译者做出这样的决定。本文采用描述性翻译研究学派中佐哈尔的系统观,图里,切斯特曼和赫尔曼斯的规范观以及利弗尔的操控观为理论依据,主要通过对“林译小说”及其“误译”进行观察,凭借译论者和批评者的阐述,以及林纾本人的评论来探索和分析“林译小说”和“误译”现象以及其产生的原因,从而得出“林译小说”中大多数的“误译”并非误译而是林纾对原文的有意操控或改写的结论。为全面公正评价林纾提供佐证,同时也为客观评价其他译者及其译作提供一个范例。
[Abstract]:Lin Shu is an outstanding translator in modern Chinese history and the most unique translator in the history of Chinese translation. He does not understand any foreign language. However, he translated more than 180 works of 98 writers in 11 countries by means of dictation. His translations were called "translated novels" by later generations. Some of them have had a great influence in his time and won the acclaim of many famous modern writers. However, the translated novels of Lin is popular and widely read. During the period of the prevailing text-centered translation view, it has been criticized and criticized. The traditional text-centered translation view holds that the original text is the absolute standard of translation. It is emphasized that the translated works are faithful to the original text. However, Lin's novels are often referred to as "false translation everywhere" and "unfaithful to the original work" because of their abridged, added or rewritten features. Descriptive translation studies think that translation is a subsystem of multiple systems and is the manipulation or rewriting of the source text by the translator under the constraints of norms. Each manipulation or rewriting is a decision made by the translator. Every prior decision influences subsequent decisions, so translation is a process in which the translator makes decisions. Translation is not the only one, and there is no "ideal" or "true" translation. The school of descriptive translation studies holds that the purpose of translation studies is not to judge the right and wrong of translation and to determine whether or not translation conforms to our ideal translation, but on the basis of accepting the translator's translation as translation. Analyze why the translator makes such a decision, and what factors influence the translator to make such a decision. This thesis is based on the system view of Zohar, Chesterman and Hermans's normative view, and Livre's view of manipulation in descriptive translation studies. Mainly through the "Lin translation novel" and its "wrong translation" observation, relying on the translation theorists and critics of the exposition. As well as Lin Shu's comments to explore and analyze the phenomenon of "translated novels" and "false translation" and the causes of their emergence. Therefore, it is concluded that most of the "mistranslation" in the novel is not a mistranslation, but a deliberate manipulation or rewriting of the original text by Lin Shu, which provides evidence for an overall and fair evaluation of Lin Shu. It also provides an example for the objective evaluation of other translators and their translations.
