摘要
在奈达的“动态对应”理论的关照下,论述了中国古诗的可译性。动态翻译注重接受者的反应,旨在使译文对接受者产生与原文对其接受者一样的反应。奈达承认诗歌翻译有其特殊性和复杂性。他认为关键是保持原著的“风格和精神”。简要介绍中国古诗英译的可译与不可译的矛盾;接着通过对一些中国古诗的研读,肯定了中国古诗的可译性并提出了解决方法如风格的移植、音韵的移植、文化的移植等。同时指出动态对应理论有其局限性,因此翻译中国古诗并无一定的方法或原则,关键是保持原诗的精神。
This article argues that chinese classic poetry are translatable in the light of Nida＇ s dynamic correspondence theory.Dynamic translation focuses on the receptor＇s response.Based on the“effect of dynamic equivalence”,it aims at producing the similar response in the receptors to that in the original receptors.As to poetry translation,Nida acknowledges its specialty and complexity.He states it＇s crucial to keep the original＇s“spirit and manner”.Guided by the principle,adjustments can be taken in the Chinese poetry translating.This article makes a brief mention of the controversy of untranslatability and translatability in translation of ancient Chinese poetry into English.Through a close reading of the English versions of some ancient Chinese poems,the author confirms the translatability of ancient Chinese poetry and makes an analysis of methods in dealing with such issues as style, rhyming and culture difference.It also stresses that dynamic correspondence theory has its limitations.So in translating Chinese classic poetry,all methods are necessary as long as it clings to the spirit of the original.
