论跨文化语境中翻译研究的文化转向

The Cultural Turn in Translation Studies:An Intercultural Context

传统的翻译研究一直以语言分析和文本对照为主要任务,但跨文化语境中翻译和文化的互动关系说明翻译研究不仅应在语言层面上进行,而且要在文化层面上展开。作为国内外翻译学界当前的热门话题,翻译研究的文化转向是翻译理论研究发展的趋势,它突破并拓展了翻译理论研究领域,是建构翻译学的重要组成部分。

The paper first reviews the nature of translation and the interacted relationship between culture and translation. Then it discusses the development of translation studies, pointing out that the cultural turn in translation studies, which is a tendency, a breakthrough, and a hot topic as well in the field, extends the frontier of translation theory and thus contributes theoretically a lot to the construction of translation studies.
