目的论视角下的影视字幕翻译 ——以情景喜剧《成长的烦恼》为例

论文摘要

随着科技的发展及传媒的多元化,特别是影碟机、网络等多种传播媒体的普及,来自外国的影视作品以前所未有的速度进入我们的生活。在闲暇时间欣赏外国的影视作品,不仅是日常生活中不可或缺的休闲娱乐方式,也是跨文化交流的重要手段。然而,如此大量涌入的影视作品,仅靠国内几个译制片厂费时费力的传统翻译配音手段,无疑远远无法满足观众的需求。因此,配以字幕翻译的“原汁原味”的影视作品开始受到人们的青睐,并日趋流行。近些年来,对影视字幕翻译的研究虽然取得了一定的研究成果,但指导这一翻译行为的理论仍有待完善。本文尝试从功能主义目的论的角度出发,以情景喜剧《成长的烦恼》(第一季)中的英文字幕汉译作为个案进行研究。根据功能主义目的论,翻译目的决定翻译过程。影视字幕翻译的主要目的是在时间和空间因素的制约下,有效地向观众传达相关信息,使其能够更好地欣赏影视作品。为了实现这一目的,译者必须在具体实践中遵循相关的翻译原则并采取特定的翻译策略,而这些原则和策略则正是本文所关注的焦点。希望通过研究,作者能对影视字幕翻译水平的提高贡献微薄之力,并吸引更多的学者关注影视字幕翻译这一新兴的翻译领域。
