《几何原本》译“点”之“伤”

Negotiable Translations of “Points” in “Euclid's Elements”

欧几里得原本的译、注本及相关研究甚多,但深入中文译本内容本身探究徐光启翻译会通理论的不多。文章运用共时与历时态下语内、语际的语义分析方法,剖析《几何原本》中文文本"点"的翻译理念及定义思想,重现其翻译会通思想和翻译局限。

Though there are a lot of studies on the translations,annotations and other related topics,those about the Chinese contents of XU Guangqi＇ s version are rare. With synchronic and diachronic approach to semantic analysis（inner-and-inter-language） , the translation theory of “points” in the Chinese version of “Euclid Elements” is analyzed,attempting to show his idea of integration and reveal the limitations as well.
