【摘要】： 《庄子》是道家的经典力作，中国最著名的古典名著之一，也是庄子学派关于伦理、哲学、政治、人生、学术的论文汇编，蕴含着博大精深的哲学观点和丰富多彩的文化内容。所以，让更多的人了解《庄子》，了解作者庄子，熟悉中国的古典文化，是中国走向世界的途径之一。而译好《庄子》，洞悉贯穿其中的哲学理念，传递字里行间的文化信息，是决定英译本成功与否的重要基础。翻译研究领域的“文化转向”是近年翻译讨论的一个热门话题，与文化因素相对应的翻译策略就成为这一研究的焦点。本文侧重于对《庄子》文化信息转换翻译及翻译策略的研究，也穿插了对某些哲学概念翻译的分析，之所以选取文中的三个英译本，是因为三译本的作者分别为外国译者葛瑞汉、脚踏东西方文化的本土译者林语堂和深谙本国文化的汪榕培，对文化信息传递的比较很具代表意义。《庄子》章节多，内容广，这里只详细讨论其内篇，，因为普遍认为其为庄子本人所作，文中所引中文字句主要依据汪榕培的英汉版本。本文共有五章：第一章评说了文化翻译理论的历史及意义。概述翻译研究的理论，简要回顾了中西方文化翻译理论的发展过程，引出译者在文化翻译中所扮演的角色。第二章论述了历来人们争论不休的“直译、意译”，“归化、异化”，并简要回顾其发展历程。依其为理论依据，通过具体事例对这两种策略进行了分析。第三章对作者庄子及其作品《庄子》进行了简要介绍；概述了三个译本及其译者的相关内容。第四章从内篇标题的翻译入手，从贯穿文本始终的哲学词汇，到内篇所涉及文化信息，某些经典语句的翻译，以及庄子别具特色的叠字、顶真的翻译进行了深入细致的分析说明。在此基础之上，对三译本在文化信息传递过程中的优劣长短进行了比较，间或引述了其他精彩译点，并对如何传译进行了一定的讨论和总结。最后得出结论：译者应尽量正确理解原文以选择合适的翻译策略。
[Abstract]:Zhuangzi is a classic masterpiece of Taoism, one of the most famous classical masterpieces in China. It is also a compilation of papers on ethics, philosophy, politics, life, and scholarship of Zhuangzi School. It contains extensive and profound philosophical views and rich and colorful cultural content. So, let more people understand Zhuangzi, Zhuangzi, familiar with the classical culture of China. It is one of the ways for China to go to the world, and a good translation of Zhuangzi, insight into the philosophy that runs through it, and the transmission of cultural information between the lines are the important basis for determining the success of the English translation. The "cultural turn" in the field of translation studies has been a hot topic in recent years. Translation strategies corresponding to cultural factors have become the focus of this study. This thesis focuses on the translation of cultural information and translation strategies, as well as the analysis of the translation of some philosophical concepts. The reason for choosing the three English versions of the text is that the authors of the three versions are the foreign translators, GE Ruihan, the native translators of the East and the West, Lin Yutang, and Wang Rongpei, who has a good knowledge of the local culture. The comparison of cultural information transmission is of great significance. Zhuangzi has many chapters and extensive contents. Here it is discussed in detail only because it is generally considered to be made by Zhuangzi himself. The Chinese characters quoted in this paper are mainly based on Wang Rongpei's English-Chinese version. There are five chapters in this paper: The first chapter reviews the history and significance of cultural translation theory, summarizes the theory of translation studies, briefly reviews the development of cultural translation theory between China and the West, and leads to the role played by the translator in cultural translation. The second chapter discusses the "literal translation, free translation", "domestication, alienation", which have always been debated. According to its theoretical basis, the two strategies are analyzed through concrete examples. Chapter three gives a brief introduction to Zhuangzi and his works, and summarizes the three versions and the relevant contents of their translators. Chapter 4th begins with the translation of the title of the inner text, from the philosophical vocabulary throughout the text to the cultural information involved in the text, the translation of some classical sentences, and Zhuangzi's distinctive repetition of words. On the basis of this, the author compares the merits and demerits of the three versions in the process of cultural information transmission, sometimes citing other excellent translation points. Finally, the author concludes that the translator should try his best to understand the original text correctly in order to choose the appropriate translation strategy.
