论翻译主体多元系统理论与思想

Theories and Thoughts on the Translation Subject Polysystem

翻译主体一直是国内外学者关注的焦点,但因时、因地、因人观点和重心各不相同,总的来说,从作者中心论、文本中心论、译者中心论、受众中心论到主体间性、主体集,翻译主体研究呈由单一趋向复合,由简单趋向复杂之势。各项研究、各种思想竞相开放,学术争论激烈而有说服力。以以色列著名学者伊塔玛·埃文·佐哈的多元系统理论为基点,设想建立翻译主体多元系统理论,力图在前人研究的基础上将翻译主体研究推向深入,希冀对此项研究略尽绵薄之力。

The subject of translation has always been the focus of attention of scholars both inland and abroad, but both the perspective and focus vary with times, regions, backgrounds and researchers. In general, the study of translation subject shows a tendency from emphasizing ＂author-centered theory＂ ＂text-centered theory＂, ＂translatorcentered theory＂ to ＂audience-centered theory＂ to the inter-subjectivity and the subjects-set, namely, from unity to complexity, from simplicity to complication. These studies and thoughts contend for attention and are accompanied with fierce yet convincing academic debates. This paper is intended to envisage the establishment of the polysystem of translation subjects on the base of the ＂polysystem theory＂ which was presented by the renowned Israeli scholar Itamar Even-Zohar. Drawing support from the previous studies, this paper will push the research of translation＇s subject forward and contribute to the further study in this field.
