从同位关系的识别和翻译谈起

How to Distinguish and Translate Appositives and Other Modifiers

文章援引了摘自俄国大诗人A·普希金的长篇小说《E·O》中的译例 ,说明准确地识别和翻译同位语和其它修饰语在文学翻译中的重要性。如果译者搞不清这些关系 ,就会严重歪曲原著的思想内容。作者列举了四个译例来支持自己的命题。在结束语中作者提醒译家们要学习和借鉴前译 ,取长补短 ,开展批评和自我批评 ,推动翻译界自由争论的风气。因为只有这样 ,我们的翻译事业才会兴旺发达。

Quoting some examples from the Chinese versions of A·Pushking's novel Evgeny Onegin, the author of the article elucidates show important it is to distinguish and translate appositives and other modifiers correctly in literature translation. If the translator is not able to do this, he will misrepresent the original. The author hopes all the translators will learn from others' strong points to offset their own weaknesses, and pay attention to criticism and selfcriticism. Only in this way can the translators' circles see a lively and free contention atmosphere, in which our translators' undertakings will be able to develop healthily.
