故都的秋—汉译英对比赏析郁达夫原作062班优秀报告点评:该实践报告特点有四:一是能以主题与主题倾向为理论依据,对两种译文选词择义的进行了有理据的分析和评说。突出了散文情景交融的文学性及其在英译中的艺术再现和艺术表现,两位同学紧紧抓住了翻译过程中译者应主观能动地表现作者的特定情感特质这一主线,使得评析中心突出。体现出刘勰所论的“情之经,理之纬”(《》-情采篇)的文学立本之源思想在翻译中的表现。二是有析、有论、有评,不少地方体现出两位同学自己的价值判断,对名家译文有赞有批,既肯定优点,也指出不足,且评析令人信服,问题概括得当。三是能综合两位名家长处,提出自己的改进译文,既体现出理论思维,又落实到具体实践。四是报告PPTScores:97赏析取材
本文以郁达夫的《故都的秋》(AutumninPeiping)一文的第一至第四段为例,并以张培基和王椒升的译文为蓝本(张培基的译文下称译文1,王椒升的译文下称译文2),通过对名家译作的对比赏析来探讨汉译英翻译作品的翻译技巧。作者介绍
郁达夫
(1896.12.7—1945.8.29)
原名郁文,字达夫,浙江富阳人,中国现代著名小说家、散文家、诗人。
郁达夫在文学创作上主张“文学作品,都是作家的自叙传”,因此,他常常把个人的生活经历作为小说和散文的创作的素材,在作品中毫不掩饰地勾勒出自己的思想感情、个性和人生际遇。
《故都的秋》创作背景
从1921年9月至1933年3月,郁达夫曾用相当大的精力参加左翼文艺活动和进行创作.
由于国民党白色恐怖的威胁等原因,郁达夫从1933年4月由上海迁居杭州,1936年2月离杭赴福州,在杭州居住了近三年.
在这段时间里,他思想苦闷,创作枯竭,过的是一种闲散安逸的生活."在家吃点精制的菜,喝点芳醇的酒,睡睡午觉,看看闲书,不愿意将行动和平时有所移易;总之是懒得动."(引自郁达夫《住所的话》)
《故都的秋》创作背景
在这二三年间,郁达夫的确花了很多时间到处游山玩水,在一定程度上也是为了排遣现实带给他的苦闷和离群索居的寂寞.在游山玩水的过程中,写了许多游记,这是他在这段时间创作的主要收获,为我国现代游记的发展做出了不可磨灭的贡献.在杭州其间,郁达夫提倡静的文学,写的也多是"静如止水似的遁世文学".1934年7月,郁达夫"不远千里"从杭州经青岛去北平,再次饱尝了故都的秋"味",并写下了优美的散文《故都的秋》.秋天,无论在什么地方的秋天,总是好的;可是啊,北国的秋,却特别地来得清,来得静,来得悲凉。译文1:
Autumn,whereveritis,alwayshassomethingtorecommenditself.InNorthChina,however,itisparticularlylimpid,sereneandmelancholy.译文2:Autumnisalwayspleasantnomatterwhereitis.ButautumnintheNorthisespeciallyclear,especiallyserene,especiallypatheticinitscoolness.主题倾向:前半句作者通过述说秋“总是好的”表达出自己对秋的喜好,后半句话锋一转,用“清”“静”“悲凉”这三个词来诠释自己对北方的秋的特殊情感。此时翻译的选词应结合当时作者所处的白色恐怖四处横行的特定年代来考虑,应与社会文化语境相符。秋之“好”:1、hassomethingtorecommend有可取之处;给出一些建议2、pleasantSomethingthatispleasantisnice,enjoyable,orattractive句子结构的完整性和协调性——1较好秋天,无论在什么地方的秋天,总是好的;可是啊,北国的秋,却特别地来得清,来得静,来得悲凉。译文1:
Autumn,whereveritis,alwayshassomethingtorecommenditself.InNorthChina,however,itisparticularlylimpid,sereneandmelancholy.译文2:Autumnisalwayspleasantnomatterwhereitis.ButautumnintheNorthisespeciallyclear,especiallyserene,especiallypatheticinitscoolness.《柯林斯高级英语学习词典第五版》limpid:
veryclearandtransparent
clear:
adj.
清楚的,明确的,澄清的此处结合作者当时苦闷的心情,“清”应理解成北方秋天带给作者本人的安逸心情,使作者的愁绪变得透明清澈起来,故limpid较好。清、静、悲凉秋天,无论在什么地方的秋天,总是好的;可是啊,北国的秋,却特别地来得清,来得静,来得悲凉。译文1:
Autumn,whereveritis,alwayshassomethingtorecommenditself.InNorthChina,however,itisparticularlylimpid,sereneandmelancholy.译文2:Autumnisalwayspleasantnomatterwhereitis.ButautumnintheNorthisespeciallyclear,especiallyserene,especiallypatheticinitscoolness.此处作者说北之秋来得悲凉,暗藏着自己内心深处的思乡愁绪,用melancholy更为恰当。《柯林斯高级英语学习词典第五版》melancholy:anintensefeelingofsadnesswhichlastsforalongtimeandwhichstronglyaffectsyourbehaviourandattitudes.
pathetic:Ifyoudescribeapersonoranimalaspathetic,youmeanthattheyaresadandweakorhelpless,andtheymakeyoufeelverysorryforthem清、静、悲凉译文1的版本较好!
我的不远千里,要从杭州赶上青岛,更要从青岛赶上北平来的理由,也不过想饱尝一尝这“秋”,这故都的秋味。

我的不远千里,要从杭州赶上青岛,更要从青岛赶上北平来的理由,也不过想饱尝一尝这“秋”,这故都的秋味。

madelightoftravelingalongdistance其中madelightof更能表现作者即将回到故土时的欢愉心情(较好)2、
wenttothetroubleofjourneyingathousandlitrouble一词太过消极,作者本意并没有视旅途之长为trouble的意思

译文1:Unlikefamousflowerswhicharemostattractivewhenhalfopening,orgoodwinewhichismosttemptingwhenoneishalfdrunk,autumn,however,isbestappreciatedinitsentirety.译文2:Autumnisnotafamousflower,noradeliciouswine.Itisinappropriatewhileenjoyingthepleasuresofautumntoexpectsomethinginastateofhalf-openorhalf-tipsy.半开→名花半醉→美酒明确指代关系拆译法《剑桥高级学习词典》tipsy:slightlydrunkdrunk:unabletospeakoractintheusualwaybecauseofhavinghadtoomuchalcoholhalfdrunk酒意半酣的状态,tipsy则不需要用half主题倾向:“名花”总是具有一种高贵典雅的气质和姿态,其开放时总是处于一种很柔和很内敛的状态;“美酒”,则是甘醇幽香,品到半醉便是恰到好处。名花美酒指代的是南国的秋。而北方的秋是开放在原野的野花,开放时是那样的泼辣和肆无忌惮;它是白干老酒,烈辣十足,要端起大碗,一饮而尽才痛快。因此,要想饱尝这野花白干酒似的秋,必须处于一种“全开全醉”的状态,这样才能领略真正的秋。而北国的秋,那才是秋味十足的秋。
北国的槐树,也是一种能使人联想起秋来的点缀。译文1:

主题倾向:“细腻”、“清闲”表明故都的秋带给作者的舒适之感,而因为白色恐怖的原因,作者不得不背井离乡,此情此境,让人触景伤情,因此作者潜意识中感到“落寂”扫街的在树影下一阵扫后,灰土上留下来的一条条扫帚的丝纹,看起来既觉得细腻,又觉得清闲,潜意识下并且还觉得有点儿落寞,译文1:Afterastreetcleanerhasdonethesweepingundertheshadeofthetrees,youwilldiscovercountlesslinesleftbyhisbroominthedust,whichlooksofineandquietthatsomehowafeelingofforlornnesswillbegintocreepuponyou.译文2:

译文1:ThesporadicfeeblechirpingofcicadasisespeciallycharacteristicofautumnintheNorth.译文2:Thechirpingofcicadasinautumn,feebleandlingering,isanotherspecialtyofNorthChina.所谓“特产”是指“某地或某国特有的或特别著名的产品”,用英语表达则是speciallocalproduct;speciality;specialty。但是,“特产”在这里是暗语,其内涵意义不是“产品”,理解作“特色”较为恰当。译文2把“特产”译成了specialty,是由于理解不当而出现的误译。
