A Study on the Dissemination of Chinese Philosophical Culture under Feminist Translation Theory—A Case Study of the English Translation of Tao Te Ching

在当代中国哲学思想文化传播研究的学术背景下,该文以新时代中国哲学文化对外传播为研究方向,以勒奎恩的《道德经》英译本为主要研究对象,通过与其参考译本:亚瑟·威利英译本及冯家福和简·英格里希合译英译本进行翻译平行比较,以西方女性主义翻译理论分析提炼勒奎恩译本的突出翻译策略,描述女性主义翻译策略在其译本当中的体现,进而结合中国哲学外译目标,对西方女性主义翻译策略的实践对中国哲学文化对外传播产生的影响进行探究,以探讨女性主义翻译理论的应用在西方语境下对中国哲学传播的促进作用,进而探讨中国哲学文化的外译策略。

In the context of contemporary scholarship on the dissemination of Chinese philosophical thought and culture,this study critically examines Ursula K.Le Guin's English rendition of Tao Te Ching.It conducts a comparative analysis juxtaposed with antecedent translations to delineate the distinctive features of Le Guin's approach.Employing a framework grounded in feminist translation theory,the paper scrutinizes the translation techniques adopted by Le Guin,elucidating how they resonate with feminist interpretative strategies.Furthermore,it investigates the broader communicative tactics for conveying Chinese philosophical and cultural tenets,integrating insights from both Chinese philosophical translation methodologies and feminist translation practices.The objective is to ascertain the extent to which feminist translation theory has facilitated the propagation of Chinese philosophical wisdom within Western discourse.
