前言

  古歷乙丑端午節(jié)前夕,正當(dāng)“楊花繞江啼曉鷹”,敝人出席由上海交通大學(xué)外國語學(xué)院與中國高等教育出版集團聯(lián)袂主辦的“詞典數(shù)字化與英語教育學(xué)術(shù)研討會”之際,華文發(fā)來電郵稱,他的新作《漢英翻譯與跨語認(rèn)知》業(yè)已付梓,將由南京大學(xué)出版社出版,并以序言見委。我不假思索,欣然應(yīng)命。我為本書作序,捉筆之先,即感思緒百端;臨到敲擊鍵盤之際,更覺千言萬語涌向指端,這并非我的“文思泉涌”,而是所感者與欲言者都不是一樁簡單浮淺之事。正因思緒太繁,文字反覺不濟。于是我決定:此序不一定像篇“序”,寫成雜感隨想,也未嘗不可。以下便粗述我因本書而發(fā)生的一些漫想,來一個“試遣愚衷”。  華文生于山東,長期受齊魯文化的熏染,有丈夫氣概,亦不乏儒雅之風(fēng)。華文1992年考入南京大學(xué)攻讀碩士學(xué)位,專修雙語詞典學(xué),畢業(yè)時即以題為《詞典作為文本的研究》的學(xué)位論文為人所注目,隨即留校任教,在從事日常的教學(xué)與科研工作的同時,博覽群書,勤于治學(xué),筆耕不輟,成果迭出。后于2000至2004年在職攻讀翻譯學(xué)研究方向的博士學(xué)位,所撰《漢詩英譯的主體審美論》的博士學(xué)位論文公開出版后,受到譯界學(xué)人的好評。華文平時話極少,只是靜靜地聽席間他人海聊神侃;偶爾插話,亦訥訥言之,如絕句般地精短。他文在心中,不在嘴上。

內(nèi)容概要

  《漢英翻譯與跨語認(rèn)知》的前九章主要集中在對漢英翻譯過程中語義和句法兩個層面的認(rèn)知轉(zhuǎn)化特征的研究和探討上?!稘h英翻譯與跨語認(rèn)知》第十章也是最后一章將兼顧語義、句法和語用三個層面,通過考察包括形容詞和副詞這些修飾語的語義指向(semantic orientation)和句法位置(syntactic position)的跨語認(rèn)知調(diào)整,透視修飾語因這些調(diào)整所連帶的語用功能(pragmatic function)的變化。在漢英翻譯過程中,漢語原文為了表達細(xì)膩的語義內(nèi)容和語用目的,往往會將修飾語與被修飾的成分進行句法錯置,即將其放置在并非它所語義指向的被修飾語附近,從而造成了語義指向和句法位置的錯位。而經(jīng)過漢英翻譯的認(rèn)知轉(zhuǎn)換之后常常會出現(xiàn)修飾語歸位的現(xiàn)象,即將修飾語回歸到它所語義指向的被修飾成分的位置。這種歸位的后果即是句法的跨語轉(zhuǎn)換現(xiàn)象,同時也會影響語義內(nèi)容表達的細(xì)膩性以及原文語用目的在譯文中的實現(xiàn)。

章節(jié)摘錄

  Here, the lady with white hair actually appears in two temporallydifferent spaces: the current reality space and the mental space in 1929.The roles the white hair lady assumes are identical in the two spaces buthave different values filled. The temporal space situated in 1929 isaccessed by the role it shares with the base space in reality.  With emphases on different aspects of the cognitive structureof concepts, the cognitive linguists have assigned different namesto mental space. Then we have such names as frame, schema,script, global pattern, pseudo-text, cognitive model, experientialgestalt, base, scene, etc. (Croft and Cruse 2004:8). This chaptercannot encompass them all into the research of the space blendingin C-E translation. Among them frame, domain, space, base, andscript are brought into the landscape. Frame stresses the spatialproximity within a scene. So in a RESTAURANT frame, we cansummon up into mind CUSTOMER, WAITER, ORDERING,EATING, BILL. These frame-related eoncepts have spatialimmediacy to each other. In comparison with frame, domain canincur the total sum of concepts pertaining to a domain or mutuallypertaining, no matter how far or near the concepts are spatiallyfrom each other. Even in the mapping of source domain onto targetdomain as occurs in the metaphorical conceptualization we can havetwo domains essentially unrelated. By contrast, space attachesemphasis onto the distinction between the venues whereconceptualization happens. Then it more often than not designatesthe mental space which is engendered by beliefs, wishes, andhypotheses. However, these mental spaces cannot come into beingindependently of the base space, which actually finds itself in thereal world despite the fact it still relies on the mental media. In thestudy of the space blending it is much intended to address theinteraction between the mental spaces and the base spaces.
