“一体两翼”之儿童本位翻译——周作人儿童文学翻译思想体系研究

A Study on Zhou Zuoren’s Thoughts on Translation ofChildren’s Literature

周作人的儿童文学翻译质量上乘,数量庞大,在中国儿童文学史上占有重要地位,其颇具特质的儿童文学翻译思想是其翻译实践及其影响形成的内在动因,值得深入探讨。本文发现,周作人的儿童文学翻译思想以其首创的儿童本位理念为体,在儿童文学翻译实践中,具体表现为“以儿童趣味为本位”的选材标准和“受到儿童的爱顾”的翻译标准,由此构成“一体两翼”的儿童文学翻译思想体系。在此翻译思想的指导下,周作人的儿童文学翻译不仅对中国现代儿童文学的产生与发展发挥了巨大的推动作用,对改变当时国人的教育观念,实践并传播其儿童本位的儿童观和儿童文学观,起到了重要的历史作用,而且对当下的儿童文学翻译也具有很大的借鉴价值。

Zhou Zuoren,an important figure in the history of Chinese children’s literature,devoted himself to the translation of children’s literature.This paper has found out that the child-oriented idea is the guiding thought for Zhou’s translation of children’s literature,which is concretized as the“children’s interest-oriented”criterion of source text selection and the translation criterion of“being loved by children”,thus forming a“one body two wings”translation thought system.Under the guidance of this translation thought,Zhou’s translation of children’s literature not only played a significant role in promoting the emergence and development of modern Chinese children’s literature through practicing and spreading the child-oriented view,but also has great reference for the current translation of children’s literature.
