对译者影响力的文献计量分析——以第四次翻译高潮中的三位文学译者为例

A Bibliometric Analysis of Translators’ Influence: Foucsing on Three Literary Translators During the 4th Translation Boom

本文应用文献计量学中的引文分析法及h指数，以中国第四次翻译高潮中的三位文学译者为例，结合定性分析研究译者的影响力。研究发现：译者的影响力与其所处的时代背景有着密切关系；被引频次与所发表文献的类型之间的关联要远远大于它与发文量之间的关联；在文学翻译领域，兼顾翻译理论研究和翻译实践的译者比只从事翻译实践的译者具有更大的影响力。把文献计量指标引入到译者影响力研究是对译者实证研究方法的拓展。

This paper tries to study translators＇ influence with three literary translators during China＇s fourth translation boom as its focus. The study emploed the means of bibliometric method of citation analysis and h-index complemented by a qualitative analysis. The main findings include：（ 1 ）a translator＇s influence is closely related with the social background he/she lives in; （2） whether a translator will be cited has more to do with the type of the works than with the number of publications; （ 3 ） in the field of literary translation, translators engaged both in translation and translation studies are more influential than translators in translation. It is hoped that this paper will throw some light on empirical studies of translators.
