【摘要】：在翻译文学和影视作品的标题时,译者常常将作品所涉及的内容或情节额外地映射到标题中去,以使译文标题更加明晰化。对标题的这一译法常常被业界视为恰当的处理,因其可以使目的语受众见之则知、知之益明,在一定程度上似乎亦有利于译作获得商业利益。然而源语作者并没有为了迎合源语受众而在标题中过度透露正文内容,因此译者的此种映射处理违背了源语作者的本意,此外,它还可能削弱原文标题本身具备的形式美感或意境,且限制目的语受众的想象空间,从而未能传递原作引领大众素养向前迈进的效用,也未能履行译者肩负的引领文化演进与发展的历史责任。作为知识分子的翻译者,应当从不抛弃原文本就具有的文艺形式开始,把原作标题留给读者的想象空间移植过来,以更好领会外来文化的异质。
[Abstract]:In translating the titles of literary, film and television works, the translator often maps the content or plot involved in the works to the title in order to make the title of the translation more explicit. This translation of the title is often regarded as the appropriate treatment by the industry, because it can make the target language audience know and benefit from it, and to some extent it seems to be conducive to the commercial benefits of the translation. However, the author of the source language does not disclose the text too much in the title in order to cater to the audience of the source language, so the translator's mapping is contrary to the original intention of the source language author. It may also weaken the aesthetic sense of form or artistic conception of the original title itself and limit the imagination of the target audience, thus failing to convey the effect of the original work leading the mass literacy forward. Also failed to fulfill the translator's historical responsibility to lead the evolution and development of culture. As an intellectual translator, we should begin with not abandoning the literary and artistic forms of the original text, and transplant the original title to the reader's imagination space in order to better understand the heterogeneity of foreign culture.
