利玛窦中文译著中文学重写现象研究

论文摘要

回首明末清初由耶酥会士发起并主导的中西交流活动,利玛窦无疑是极富传奇色彩的人物。其在华十八年间留下的二十余部中文译著亦成为学术热点。综观前人研究成果,利玛窦在中文译著创作过程中运用的文本处理方法本身往往被人忽略。本文以勒佛菲尔等人提出的操控理论为理论框架,以利玛窦的三部中文作品《交友论》,《二十五言》和《天主实义》为代表,探求分析其中文译著中普遍存在的“文学重写”行为及重写手段。从利玛窦的中文译著中我们可以看到中西文化政治系统的差异,赞助人的多重身份,译著性质及翻译模式对异文化译(作)者自主性的制约等种种因素相互作用,使利玛窦在文本创造时采用大量的增删,替换,移植,借用并重新诠释等文学重写手段。利玛窦中文译著中的文学重写行为亦演变为具有文化,宗教和政治三重内涵的操控产物。
