近代翻译对中国文化现代性生成的影响研究

Influence Studies of Modern Translations on the Modernity of Chinese Culture

翻译作为一种跨文化,跨语际的活动,在特定的社会历史语境下,对本土文化的建构将产生直接的影响。自晚清以来,中国社会开始了向现代社会的过渡,一直到五四新文化运动标志着中国现代性雏形的基本完成。其间,翻译通过引入西方自然,社会科学以及欧化的语言文字,清理了传统中国文化中的封建性质,对中国现代化的思想意识,政治形态文学话语以及语言白话的生成都起着十分重要的作用。

As a cross-cultural and interlingual practice, translations exert direct influence on the indigenous construction of the alien culture in a certain social and historical context. From the Late Qing Dynasty to the May Fourth Period, China completed its rudiment of modernity. During this period, translations introduce Western natural and social sciences as well as the western-style language, wiping away the feudal essence embedded in traditional Chinese culture and thus perform a significant role in the formation of modernized political architecture, Chinese vernacular and literature as well.
