Resurrection of Forms: Rethinking Literary Translation from a Poetic Perspective
by Wang Dongfeng (Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China) p. 6
Abstract: In the history of translation both in China and in the West, formal features of the ST have long been downplayed in favor of the so-called “free translation.” If unchecked, such a tendency could result in a destruction of many poetically loaded expressions in the original and thus cause a fatal loss of poetic values in translation. Applying the principles of poetics to a reconception of the translation-related values and significance of forms, this paper calls for a reversal of the anti-formalist trend in literary translation.
Key words: poetics; form; literary translation
On Defamiliarizing Translation
by Chen Lin (XiangtanUniversity, Xiangtan, China) p. 13
Abstract: Defamiliarizing translation is a means for the pursuit of newness and unfamiliarity in literary translation. By retaining distinctive features of literariness in theme, technique and imagery in the translated literature, and through the preservation of the foreign elements of the source text and the mixing of the foreign elements with the indigenous features of the target language, this approach renders a target text strange, enabling the target audience to re-perceive of the familiar anew. As a formal mechanism, defamiliarizing translation contributes to the realization of literariness in translation and helps to account for the often flamboyant and deviant translations by authors- or poets-cum-translators.
Key words: literary translation; defamiliarizing translation; alienization; hybridization; foreignness
China's Tradition of Religious Translation as a Mirror for Its Fiction Translation
by Fang Kairui(Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, Guangzhou, China) p. 21
Abstract: In its long history, China,s religious translation has developed its own unique models and strategies by redefining culture-specific purposes and recontextualizing target readership. Following a brief review of these models and strategies, this paper argues that in terms of textual simplification, value transference and readership modification, China,s religious translation ought to serve as an exemplary model for its fiction translation.
Key words: China; religious translation; model; strategy; fiction translation; Chinese
Paradigm Shift or Perspective Switch: A Response to Prof. Xie Tianzhen
by Lü Jun (Nanjing Normal University, Nanjing, China) & Hou Xiangqun (Nanjing University of Science & Technology Information, Nanjing, China) p. 41
Abstract: This paper is a reply to Prof. Xie Tianzhen,s paper “The Study of Translation per se versus Translation Studies.” Led by a survey which shows that the Chinese scholars of translation, unlike their western counterparts, remain at issue with one another over the status of the linguistic approach, the two authors argue that linguistics should always be the core in translation studies, since language is the carrier of all the messages, the cultural and the aesthetic ones included. They further maintain that the cultural messages conveyed in translation can be deciphered only through an internal study of relevant texts rather than an external study of extra-textual factors. And they contend in conclusion that to grasp the true meaning of the “cultural turn” in translation studies, one has to distinguish among three modes of development, namely, paradigm shift, problematic modeling and perspective switch. What has taken place in the cultural turn is the the last of this trio.
Key words: counter-criticism; cultural turn; linguistics; paradigmatic shift; perspective switch
Imagery Focalization and the Evocation of a Poetic World
by Zhu Chunshen(City University of Hong Kong, China) Translated by Cui Ying(City University of Hong Kong, China) p. 57
Abstract: This paper discusses how a poetic world is cunjured up in literary translation. Following a brief overview of sense and sense-making with reference to cohesion, coherence and intertextuality, it offers a word-by-word close analysis of a classical Chinese poem, Ye Yu Ji Bei by Li Shangyin, charting the text,s semantic coherence and mapping its metaphorical coherence in terms of ontological metaphors. Using the poem as a case example, the paper examines (1) the way to evoke a poetic world sustained by both semantic and metaphorical coherence, (2) the focalization of imagery through an interplay among individual images, and (3) the significance of a focal image for the profiling, and by extension the translation, of a poetic text.
Key words: Li Shangyin; poetry translation; coherence; imagery focalization; text analysis
A Textual and Strategic Analysis of Slogan Translation: With the C-E Rendering of Shanghai World Expo Slogans as an Exemplar
by Li Dechao (The Hongkong Polytechnic University, China) & Wang Kefei (Beijing Foreign Studies University, China) p. 65
Abstract: The functionalist view of translation pioneered by Katharina Reiss maintains that free translation, with its emphasis on retaining the effects rather than the form of the original, is the most suitable strategy for slogan translation. Yet more and more contemporary slogans are stylistically motivated to achieve both the appellative and the expressive function, the latter of which cannot be reproduced in the target text by using the free translation strategy alone. With the translation of the Shanghai World Expo,s slogans as a case in point, this article proposes a new translation typology featuring finer distinctions of translation strategies and argues that different translation strategies should be adopted for rendering different types of slogans.
Key words: slogan; translation; textual analysis; translation strategy
