从接受美学角度看《阿Q正传》英译本

论文摘要

《阿Q正传》是一部非常有学术价值和研究价值的文学作品。作为现代文学经典作品之一,它有着丰富的内涵和意蕴,可以从多种不同的研究角度切入。《阿Q正传》中对时代背景的反映、情节描写、人物形象刻画,特别是阿Q精神的核心—精神胜利法和对国民劣根性的揭示都有认真研究和重新审视的学术意义。应该说,这是一部引人深省、发人深思的文学作品,因此也引起了世界各国学者的注意,并陆续被翻译成了各国文字,受到了世界各国广大读者的热烈欢迎和作家的高度评价。其中,《阿Q正传》的英译版本至少有7种。这些英译本在传播鲁迅的这一不朽的著作,发挥了巨大的作用,也在不同角度、不同的时代向不同的读者展示了《阿Q正传》永恒的魅力。有鉴于此,作者对《阿Q正传》的英文翻译产生了浓厚的研究兴趣,并试图从接受美学的视角对这一部中国文学的代表作的英译版本进行比较研究。在风起云涌的20世纪文学研究中,接受美学(又称接受理论)作为一种新型范式和新兴方法论,将文学批评理论的关注焦点由重作者、重作品转向重文本—读者关系。根据接受美学的理论,读者的反应是评价一部作品好坏的标准,作者在作过程中应考虑到读者的社会经验、审美倾向、接受能力,即读者的“期待视野”。此外,一部作品并不是把所有的信息都呈现在读者面前,它有许多意义未确定点和意义空白,这些未确定点和意义空白是连接作品的创新意识和读者的接受意识的桥梁,它们需要读者根据自己的理解进行解读。同样,在翻译过程中,译者作为原文的读者和译文的作者,也必须注意译文读者的接受和反应,尽量使自己对原文的理解和诠释能够契合译文读者的“期待视野”,从而最大限度地达到作者、译者和读者的视野融合。在本文中,作者选取了《阿Q正传》在不同时期、不同译者的四个英译本,运用接受理论中“期待视野”、“未确定性”和“视野融合”等概念对它们进行比较分析。分析表明:四个译者由于文化和时代背景的差异拥有不同的“期待视野”,而四个译本的读者也有各自的“期待视野”和接受能力。鉴于这两方面的考虑,四个各有所长的译者对文本的未确定点作出了不同的具体化,形成了不同的翻译,而最终,这四个译本的译者和读者的视野融合的程度也不尽相同。本文从接受美学的视角,对《阿Q正传》四个英译本进行了比较分析,目的不在于讨论评定这四个英译本的优劣,而在于探讨《阿Q正传》众多不同译本的形成原因和接受情况。作者认为,像《阿Q正传》这样的意蕴深长的文学经典,其永恒的魅力经得起也值得无穷的阐释和解读。而且,一个译本不可能同时契合不同历史阶段不同读者的“期待视野”。只有通过多个译本多次的发掘和诠释,我们才能不断接近完成对它的认识,不断传承它的伟大精神。
