【译文】

During Y ao’s domination in ancient times, there was a time when ten suns parched the crops and plants on earth at the same time. As a result, people suffered to starve for shortage of food. There appeared many monsters that harmed the lives of the people such as Yayu and Zaochi, man-eater ogres, Jiuying, the monster of water and fire, Dafeng, a savage roc, a devastator of houses and buildings, Fengxi, a hog monster and Xiushe, a snake monster. Y ao, who was said to be a leader in ancient times, ordered Shun to help the folks who were in extreme misery. Shun executed Zaochi in the suburb of Zhuhua Lake in the south, killed Jiuying in the Xiongshui Lake in the north, seized Dafeng in the marsh of Qingqiu lake and fetched down nine suns in the sky, slaughtered monster Y ayu on earth and chopped off Xiushe, the snake monster in Dongting Lake and captured Fengxi in Sanglin. Shun is welcomed by all people. Therefore, people enthroned Y ao as their emperor.

古典诗歌翻译的审美再现 以杜甫《登高》的英译分析为例

古典诗歌翻译的审美再现——以杜甫《登高》的英译分析为例摘要：从翻译美学的角度看，翻译的目的是语际的审美再现。翻译审美再现遵循从感知、理解、转化和再现的过程，成功的关键在于审美主体能否将已经过其加工的审美体验艺术地物态化于译作中，为原语找到最佳的艺术表现形式。从对杜甫《登高》的两种译文的分析，可以见出古典诗歌翻译的审美再现。 关键词：翻译；审关再现；古典诗歌；审美主体；审美客体 引言 从翻译美学的角度看，翻译的目的是语际的审美再现(aesthetic representation)。翻译是一个对翻译客体(sL)的审美信息进行感知、理解、转化和再现的艺术体验过程。翻译艺术再现的本质是将对原语文本(SL)内省的理解内涵转化为外显的直观形式(TL)，也就是为原语找到最佳的艺术表现形式。对译而言，翻译审美成功的再现在于主体将已经过其加工的审美体验艺术地物态化(materialization)于译作中?(p218)。这种审美体验来自于审美主体(译者)对审美客体(sL)各审美要素的正确解读、理解，并且在不背离原语文本核心审美信息的前提下，发挥自己的审美主观能动性，艺术地、创造性地通过翻译，实现语际的审美再现。杜甫的《登高》被视为中国传统七言律诗的巅峰之作和经典代表，声韵和谐、意象绝美、意境深远，典型地体现了中国古典诗歌的美学要素。本文拟从对《登高》的两种英译文本的比较和分析，探讨如何在翻译中实现语际的审美再现。 一、翻译客体的审美解读：《登高》原作分析 (一)翻译客体形式美的解读 翻译客体的审美构成，涵盖原语文本(sL)所有的(goodness)①，这种美分为两个系统：形式系统和非形式系统?‘089’。形式系统主要包括音、韵、词、句、 章、节等语言形式要素以及sL所呈现的外化物象，即意象的铺陈。中国格律诗的形式美之关键要素，一是声韵律，二是对仗。这两点在《登高》中有着非常突出的表现。请看原诗： 风急天高猿啸哀，渚清沙白鸟飞回。 无边落木萧萧下，不尽长江滚滚来。

In the trees a wind has startled the birds, And insects cower from cold in the grass; But wayfarers at least have wine And nothing to fear -- till the morning bell.
