2016翻译硕士复习资料:英译中国现代散文选(11) (1)

2016翻译硕士复习资料:英译中国现代散文选(11) 朋友 巴金 这一次的旅行使我更了解一个名词的意义,这个名词就是:朋友。 七八天以前我曾对一个初次见面的朋友说:“在朋友们面前我只感到惭愧(1)。你们待我太好了,我简直没法报答你们。”这并不是谦虚的客气话,这是真的事实。说过这些话,我第二天就离开了那个朋友,并不知道以后还有没有机会再看见他。但是他给我的那一点点温暖至今还使我的心颤动(2)。 我的生命大概不会很长久罢。然而在短促的过去的回顾中却有一盏明灯,照彻了我的灵魂的黑暗,使我的生存有一点光彩。这盏灯就是就友情。我应该感谢它,因为靠了它我才能够活到现在;而且把旧家庭给我留下的阴影扫除了的也正是它。 世间有不少的人为了家庭抛弃朋友,至少也会在家庭和朋友之间划一个界限,把家庭看得比朋友重过若干倍。这似乎是很自然的事情。我也曾亲眼看见一些人结婚以后就离开朋友,离开事业。…… 朋友是暂时的,家庭是永久的。在好些人的行为里我发见了这个信条。这个信条在我实在是不可理解的。对于我,要是没有朋友,我现在会变成怎样可怜的东西,我自己也不知道(3)。 然而朋友们把我救了。他们给了我家庭所不能给的东西。他们的友爱,他们的帮助,他们的鼓励,几次把我从深渊的边沿救回来。他们对我表示了无限的慷慨(4)。 我的生活曾经是悲苦的,黑暗的。然而朋友们把多量的同情,多量的爱,多量的欢乐,多量的眼泪分了给我,这些东西都是生存所必需的。这些不要报答的慷慨的施舍,使我的生活里也有了温暖,有了幸福(5)。我默默地接受了它们。我并不曾说一句感激的话,我也没有做过一件报答的行为。但是朋友们却不把自私的形容词加到我的身上。对于我,他们太慷慨了(6)。 这一次我走了许多新地方,看见了许多新朋友。我的生活是忙碌的:忙着看,忙着听,忙着说,忙着走。但是我不曾遇到一点困难,朋友们给我准备好了一切,使我不会缺少什么。我每走到一个新地方,我就像回到我那个在上海被日本兵毁掉的旧居一样。 每一个朋友,不管他自己的生活是怎样苦,怎样简单,也要慷慨地分一些东西给我,虽然明知道我不能够报答他。有些朋友,连他们的名字我以前也不知道,他们却关心我的健康,处处打听我的“病况”,直到他们看见了我那被日光晒黑了的脸和膀子,他们才放心地微笑了,这种情形的确值得人掉泪。 有人相信我不写文章就不能够生活。两个月以前,一个同情我的上海朋友寄稿到《广州民国日报》的副刊,说了许多关于我的生活的话。他也说我一天不写文章第二天就没有饭吃(7)。这是不确实的。这次旅行就给我证明;即使我不再写一个字,朋友们也不肯让我冻馁。世间还有许多慷慨的人,他们并不把自己个人和家庭看得异常重要,超过一切。靠了他们我才能够活到现在,而且靠了他们我还要活下去。 朋友们给我的东西是太多、太多了(8)。我将怎样报答他们呢?但是我知道他

Parting Sorrows Zheng Zhenduo Farewell, China, my beloved homeland! Leaning over the high railing, I watched the ship tearing itself away slowly from the shore, leaving a widening expanse of water in between. Many relatives and friends of mine were waving their hats and white handkerchiefs amidst shouts of “Adieu,adieu!” firecrackers were crackling and apluttering, and sailors shouting goodbye to their buddies on the shore. I was seized with violent emotion, tears welling up in my eyes and blurring my eyeglasses. While the ship was steering ahead slowly, I saw on the way many warships in gray or white lying at anchor and fly flags other than our

《英译现代散文选》读书报告

《英译现代散文选》读书报告 正如张培基先生所说,“散文最真实,最笃诚,不雕饰,不做作,因而是一种最易令人感到亲切的文体”,散文“形散神不散”,句式灵活多变、逻辑性不强。因其“率真”的特点,在翻译成英文过程中不仅要考虑恰当词的选择,而且要照顾的中文字里行间所表达的意义,乃至篇章的布局和风格。在翻译成英文前,正确的理解中文所要表达的意思至关重要。这样才能做到“忠实于原作的内容,保持原作的风格”,在次基础上,还要考虑表达是否通顺,能否被读者接受。翻译不仅仅是语言的对等,文化内涵上也要对等,让读者读起来就像读原作一样的感觉。通读张培基先生的《英译现代散文选》(一)能深刻体会到“忠实、通顺”这四字翻译标准。 一、在短语和词的处理上 李大钊的《艰难的国运与雄健的国民》一文,意在说明历史发展的必然规律,表达了中国革命者的乐观精神。其题目翻译为“National Crisis Vs Heroic Nation”,national 和nation 押头韵,有一种音韵美,读起来朗朗上口,铿锵有力,让读者感受到革命势不可挡的气魄。翻译没按字面直译,而是对汉语的精神的提炼,做到了忠实于原文,可谓是升华与再创造。文章中“要知在艰难的国运中建造国家,亦是人生最有趣味的事”,译文“The greatest joy of life, mind you, is to build up our country during its most difficult days. 此句中“在艰难的国运中”强调时间——这段艰难的日子。故不能按照译题目的思路来翻译此处。 在“艰难险阻的境界”、“曲折回环,极其险峻”、“有时是崎岖险路”、“一段崎岖险阻的道路”中,都表达了危险的意思,但是翻译成英文究竟该用哪个“形容危险”的词,是和汉语表意的侧重点分不开的。第一段中的“艰难险阻的境界”侧重说明这段道路有困难和阻碍,故将“险”省去不译。“曲折回环,极其险峻”是在说水流曲折与猛劲的险,而perilous强调即刻临头的危险,用perilous形容更能体现水流之猛,画面感很强。“有时是崎岖险路”是指征人所走过的路中的一种情况,hazardous可以形容造成损失或严重伤害的时机或场合,故这里比dangerous 更恰当。最后一个为了避免重复译为dangerous 也是必要的。在充分理解文章的基础上,做到了忠实于原文,选择恰当的英语词汇,也符合英语表达习惯。做到这些都是基于对中文和英文的深刻理解。 对于一些汉语中特有的词汇,如《差不多先生传》中“差不多先生”译为“Mr. About-the-Same”可谓是一种再创造。“钱铺”译为money shop而不是private bank,确切的表达了原文的意思。《背影》中的“茶房”,汉语中指旅馆轮船等内的服务员,根据语境的不同,翻译的也不一样。文中出现两处“茶房”分别译为了a hotel waiter和train attendants. 汉语表意灵活多变,因此同样的词或短语在不同的位置,侧重表意不同,功能不同,其翻译所选的词也不同。

2016翻译硕士复习资料:英译中国现代散文选(2)

2016翻译硕士复习资料:英译中国现代散文选(2) 螃蟹 老螃蟹觉得不安了,觉得全身太硬了(1),自己知道要蜕壳(2)了。 他跑来跑去的寻。他想寻一个窟穴,躲了身子,将石子堵了穴口,隐隐的蜕壳。他知道外面蜕壳(3)是危险的。身子还软(4),要被别的螃蟹吃去的。这并非空害怕,他实在亲眼见过。 他慌慌张张的走。 旁边的螃蟹(5)问他说:“老兄,你何以这般慌?” 他说:“我要蜕壳了。” “就在这里蜕不是很好么?我还要帮你呢。” “那可太怕人了。” “你不怕窟穴里的别的东西,却怕我们同种么?” “我不是怕同种。” “那是怕什么呢?” “就怕你要吃掉我(6)。” The Crab An old crab grew restless. Finding himself stiff all over, he knew it was time for him to moult his shell. He dashed here and there in search of a cave to hide. He was going to block up the mouth of cave so that he could moult in secret. He knew it would be very dangerous to shed his shell in the open because, with his new shell still being soft, he might be eaten up by other crabs. This fear was not groundless for he himself had really seen it happen to other moulting crabs. The old crab kept moving about in a hurry. A nearby crab asked, “Hey, brother, what’s the rush?” “I am going to moult,” answered the old crab. “Wouldn’t it be all right to moult right here? I could help you out with it.” “How horrible that would be!” “You mean while you’ll not scared of other things in the cave you’re scared of your own kind?” “No, I’m not scared of my own kind.” “Then what are you scared of?” “Nothing but being eaten up by you.” 注释: 《螃蟹》是近年发现的鲁迅佚文。文章发表于1919年8月间,时值五四运动方兴未艾,作者通过寓言故事,提醒人们新生事物往往有被旧事物消灭于萌芽状态的危险。 (1)“觉得全身太硬了”译为Finding himself stiff al over,其中all over 意即“全身”或“浑身”,作状语短语用。如逐字译为finding his whole body stiff并无不可,但语言稍欠地道。
