再论郑振铎对泰戈尔的译介

On Zheng Zhenduo's Translation of Tagore

郑振铎对泰戈尔及其诗歌的翻译介绍是20世纪20年代中外诗歌关系的重要内容,在翻译语言和意义之外,人们谈论最多的便是"郑译泰诗"对中国新诗创作的影响。但在中外交流频繁的语境下,我们还应该从世界文学的大格局中来认识"郑译泰诗"的基本面貌,在为中国新诗创作引入外来资源的同时,它也暗含着中西方文化地位的倾斜,以及中国现代翻译文学主体地位的局部丧失,折射出西方文化过滤之后的作品对中国翻译文学选材的制约。

Zheng Zhenduo’s translation of Tagore and his poems is an important part of the relationship between Chinese and foreign poetry in the 1920s. Besides the translation of language and the meaning, it is often discussed by some scharlors that "Zheng’s translation of Tagore’s Poems" has influenced much on the creation of modern Chinese poetry. However, in the context of frequent cultural exchange of China and foreign countries, we may understand the basic features of"Zheng’s translation of Tagore’s Poems"from the bigger prospective on world literature. While introducing foreign resources for the creation of modern Chinese poems, it also implies Western cultural status and the partial loss of Chinese modern translation literature.
