翻译认知截显论:认知翻译学核心构念探讨

Translating as profiling:Introducing a corollary theoretical construct to Cognitive Translatology

本文尝试对体现翻译本质的原文与译文关系进行新的认知界定,并在此基础上提出翻译认知截显论,探讨截显成为认知翻译学核心构念的可行性。本文认为,这一核心构念的提出,一方面可以突破以往翻译研究中的一些困局,另一方面也可以在微观语言认知分析与宏观社会文化认知分析之间建立衔接机制,有利于形成更具可操作性和适用性的认知翻译分析体系。此外本文也讨论了截显与已有翻译理论构念的区别与联系。

This article attempts to redefine the relationship between the original text and the target text of translation using a cognitive approach,explores the feasibility of profiling as a corollary theoretical construct of Cognitive Translatology,and proposes a theory of Cognitive Profiling for translation studies.In terms of profiling,predicaments in previous translation studies can be viewed in a new light,and the link between linguistic and sociocultural cognition can be established at different levels,which is conducive to the formation of an operable and applicable framework of cognitive translation analysis.This article also discusses this new theoretical construct in the context of other theoretical concepts in translation studies.
