【摘要】： 唐诗是中国传统文化宝库中的精品,是中国古典诗歌的巅峰。唐诗英译,在文化全球化的今天,对于中国传统文化的传播和全球文化交流是十分重要的。国内外很多杰出的翻译家涉足唐诗英译领域,并且取得了辉煌的成就。此前有关唐诗英译的研究大多数采用定性分析的方法,而且分析过程中主观因素占据主导位置。本研究选取我国当代著名翻译家许渊冲与二十世纪美国诗人、翻译家宾纳的译本为语料,建立了两个译本的平行语料库XYZPARA和BYNPARA。到目前为止,国内外运用双语平行语料库手段对唐诗英译的研究基本处于空白状态。本文尝试利用翻译研究以及语料库语言学的相关理论、定性与定量研究相结合的方法对两个唐诗英译本在词汇、句法和语篇层次上进行详尽的描述与分析。该研究表明: (1)总体上两个唐诗英译本均具有明晰化与简约化倾向。许渊冲的译本较之宾纳的译本在词汇、句法层次上更具有明晰化倾向;宾纳的译本在语篇层次上更具有显著的明晰化倾向。简约化倾向在许渊冲的译本中基本没有体现,而在宾纳的译本中有所体现。 (2)许渊冲的译本在语言运用上更贴近原文本,而宾纳的译本在语言运用上更加贴近目标语英语的使用习惯。 (3)许渊冲的译本成功地保留了原作的韵味,使读者真实地体会到唐诗本身以及中国文化;而宾纳的译本完满地传递了原作的意义,对西方读者理解唐诗具有一定的帮助作用。
[Abstract]:Tang poetry is the masterpiece in the treasure house of Chinese traditional culture and the peak of Chinese classical poetry. The translation of Tang poetry into English is very important to the spread of Chinese traditional culture and global cultural exchange in today's cultural globalization. Many outstanding translators at home and abroad have set foot in the field of Tang poetry translation, and have made brilliant achievements. Most of the previous studies on the translation of Tang poetry into English used qualitative analysis, and subjective factors dominated the analysis process. The present study selects the translations of Xu Yuanchong, a famous contemporary translator in China, and Binner, an American poet and translator of the 20th century, as the corpus, and establishes two parallel corpora, XYZPARA and BYNPARA.. Up to now, the research on the translation of Tang poetry into English by using bilingual parallel corpus is basically blank. This paper attempts to make a detailed description and analysis of the two English versions of Tang poetry at the lexical, syntactic and textual levels by combining qualitative and quantitative studies with the relevant theories of translation and corpus linguistics. The results show that: (1) the two English versions of Tang poetry have the tendency of clarity and brevity. The translation of Xu Yuanchong has a more clear tendency than that of Binner at the lexical and syntactic level, and the translation of Binner has a more obvious tendency of clarity at the textual level. The tendency of minimization is basically not reflected in Xu Yuanchong's version, but in Binner's version. (2) Xu Yuanchong's version is more close to the original text in language use, while Binner's version is more close to the English usage of the target language. (3) Xu Yuanchong's translation succeeded in retaining the charm of the original work, which made the readers truly understand the Tang poetry itself and the Chinese culture; Binner's translation perfectly conveys the meaning of the original and helps the western readers to understand Tang poetry.
