【摘要】：本文拟从阐释学(hermeneutics)的角度探讨在文学翻译中译者主体性的发挥问题。译者主体性是指译者在翻译这一动态过程中发挥的一种主观能动性。翻译过程中译者的主体性主要体现在如下几个方面:选择原文、决定翻译策略、能动的理解、能动的表达并寻求与原文达到平衡。本研究以阐释学为理论依据,研究译者在翻译活动中的角色,以及译者如何在翻译过程中保持个人主体性的客观与中立,使其最大限度地服务于翻译实践。广义上的阐释学定义可以表述为“一门对于意义的理解和解释的理论或哲学”。阐释学对于翻译研究的关照主要表现在:理解是历史的,对文本的理解应当从历史性出发;文本意义具有开放性,允许多元阐释的存在,因此文学作品的重译具有必要性;理解者和文本都具有各自的视界,理解应将两种视界交融在一起,达到“视界融合”;译者应努力接近原作者的初始视界,从而领悟作者的本意。乔治·斯坦纳(George Steiner)在著作《通天塔之后——语言与翻译面面观》中运用阐释学理论,提出了基于阐释学分析的四个翻译步骤:信赖(trust)、侵入(aggression)、吸收(incorporation)和补偿(restitution)。所谓“信赖”就是译者充分认识原文的价值,相信原文是有意义的;而在理解原文的意义时,译者的主观因素不可避免地“侵入”到原文中去,从而使得理解烙上了译者的影子;“侵入”的目的便是“吸收”,即把前一步骤中取得的成果移植转化到译文中去;“吸收”过程中有过也有不足,因此“补偿”十分必要,以弥补翻译过程中出现的失衡。本研究选取英国作家狄更斯的小说《雾都孤儿》及其中译本为例,运用斯坦纳的四个翻译步骤结合阐释学理论对其进行对比和分析。通过对荣如德、何文安两位译者在不同时期的译本以及原著的分析,本研究总结出以下三点发现: 1.阐释学关照下的翻译应理解成为译者能动的阐释原文的过程,译者主体性
[Abstract]:From the perspective of hermeneutics, this paper attempts to explore the exertion of the translator's subjectivity in literary translation. The translator's subjectivity is a kind of subjective initiative which the translator exerts in the dynamic process of translation. In the process of translation, the translator's subjectivity is mainly embodied in the following aspects: choosing the source text, deciding the translation strategy, understanding the initiative, expressing the initiative and seeking a balance with the original. Based on hermeneutics, the present study studies the role of the translator in translation activities and how the translator maintains the objectivity and neutrality of individual subjectivity in the process of translation so as to serve translation practice to the maximum extent. A broad definition of hermeneutics can be expressed as "a theory or philosophy of meaning understanding and interpretation." Hermeneutics is mainly concerned with translation studies: understanding is historical, the understanding of text should be based on history, the meaning of text is open, the existence of multiple interpretations is allowed, so the retranslation of literary works is necessary. Both the reader and the text have their own horizons. Understanding should merge the two horizons to achieve the "horizon fusion", and the translator should try to approach the original author's initial horizon so as to understand the author's intention. Using hermeneutics theory, George Steiner puts forward four translation steps based on hermeneutical analysis: trust, intrusion, incorporation and compensation. The so-called "trust" means that the translator fully understands the value of the original text and believes that the original text is meaningful, while in understanding the meaning of the original text, the translator's subjective factors inevitably "intrude" into the original text. Therefore, the purpose of "invasion" is to "absorb", that is, to transplant the achievements made in the previous step into the translation, and there are also deficiencies in the process of "absorption", so "compensation" is very necessary. In order to make up for the imbalance in the process of translation. This study takes Dickens' novel Orphan of Whew City and its Chinese translation as an example to compare and analyze it with Steiner's four translation steps and hermeneutics theory. Based on the analysis of the translations and the original works of Rong Rude and he Wenan in different periods, the present study concludes the following three findings: 1. Translation under hermeneutics should be understood as the process of the translator's initiative in interpreting the original text and the translator's subjectivity.
