传教士《论语》译本与基督教意识形态

Christian Ideology and Three Missionary Translations of the Lunyu

探讨基督教意识形态在三个传教士《论语》译本中的具体体现,研究意识形态对翻译的影响,均有必要作文本(翻译本身)与副文本(注释、序言、绪论等)的分疏。在翻译层面上,译者追求隐形而不可得,意识形态作为其诠释框架的重要组成部分,制约着译者对他者的理解,往往造成无意识的"误读"而非有意识的"操纵"。但在副文本中,译者则会正面现身,进行知识管理。

This paper investigates the ways in which Christian ideology reveals itself in three missionary translations of the Lunyu. It hopes to demonstrate the necessity of making a distinction between the text （the translation proper） and the paratexts （notes, prefaces, introductions, etc） in studying the relationship between ideology and translation： although translators tend to read their own ideology into the translation proper, they are more likely to be manipulated （by their ideology） than willfully manipulating （the text）; but in the paratexts they engage more readily in the ideological management of the translated knowledge.
