对罗伯特·弗罗斯特《未选择的路》译本的文体学浅析

Analysis of two Chinese versions of Robert Frost's The Road Not Taken from the perspective of literary stylistics

《未选择的路》是美国诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的著名诗篇之一。该诗描写作者伫于林间,面对林中岔路进行选择的一系列心理活动,表面上似乎是在写自然界的道路,但实质上作者借此象征的却是人生之路的抉择。基于对《未选择的路》两篇名家译文的分析,借助文学文体学的理论作为分析框架,从语音、词汇、句法以及衔接层面对原诗及方平、顾子欣二人的译文进行对比分析,评析译文对原诗文体风格的再现,探讨文学文体学对诗歌翻译研究和实践的价值和指导意义。

The Road Not Taken is one of the American poet Robert Frost＇s famous poems. The poem depicts the series of psychological activities the author had in choosing between the two roads in the wood. Literally it was about the roads in the forest. Actually, the author took the roads as a symbol of the roads of life. This paper, based on the analysis of the poem The Road Not Taken and two famous Chinese versions of it translated by Fang Ping and Gu Zixin, and with the aid of literary stylistics theory as the analytical framework, carries out a comparative analysis of the two versions, in order to analyze the reproduction of the two versions of the original style, and thus, investigates the value and guiding significance of literary stylistics in poetry translation.
