中英叙事诗衔接显化对比研究

A Contrastive Study on Cohesion Explicitation Between Translated Chinese Narrative Poetry and English Narrative Poetry

本研究基于30篇中译叙事诗及英语叙事诗,借助Coh-metrix在线文本分析工具,对25项指标进行检测,分析中译叙事诗与英语叙事诗衔接显化方面是否具有显著差异性以及差异成因,以期为其他中国诗歌翻译者提供借鉴。研究发现中英叙事诗在连词衔接显化、相邻词干重叠、相邻实词重叠及名词重叠方面有统计学上的显著差异,译者可更加关注衔接显化,使其更加贴近英语语言习惯,促进中国文化传播。
