跨文化翻译中的文化缺省现象与文化补偿策略

2007年2月黑龙江教育学院学报Feb.2007第26卷第2期Journal of Heilongjiang C ollege of Education V ol.26N o.2跨文化翻译中的文化缺省现象与文化补偿策略李家春,崔常亮(黑龙江大学外语部,哈尔滨150080)摘 要:跨文化视阈下,由于汉英两种文化历史传统和现实发展的差异,英语文本的可译性受到较大限制。
原文中的文化缺省问题,干扰了跨文化信息传递,是翻译需要解决的重要问题。
译者需要审慎地对待原文的文化信息,采取适当的策略对文化缺省信息进行文化补偿,从而再现原文的艺术效果和美学价值,促进跨文化交流和异质文化的建构。
关键词:跨文化翻译;文化缺省;文化补偿 中图分类号:H059 文献标志码:A 文章编号:1001-7836(2007)02-0117-03 收稿日期:2006-11-04作者简介:李家春(1980-),女,黑龙江哈尔滨人,助教,从事翻译和跨文化交际研究;崔常亮(1979-),男,黑龙江哈尔滨人,助教,从事法律英语和翻译研究。
1 跨文化翻译和文化缺省现象翻译的目的是进行跨文化间的信息传递,既是一种跨文化交际活动,又是一种建构异质文化的过程。
跨文化翻译过程中,译者在理解与诠释异族文化特有的语言和文化现象时经常按照自己的文化习惯进行认知推理,难以正确把握原文作者的交际意图和文中的文化缺省现象,无法达到社会语用功效。
文化缺省是指作者在与其意向读者交流时对双方共有的相关文化背景知识的省略,是翻译需要解决的重要问题。
作者通常会在文中省略与原语读者共有的文化信息,缺省信息可以被特定的文化语境激活于读者的脑海中,使读者得到连贯的语义理解。
而译文读者遇到此类缺省时就会出现意义真空,难以调动语言之外的各种因素来参与话语理解并形成连贯的语义。
原语作者与读者之间的默契便在译者与译文读者之间失落,因此译者要具备双语和双文化能力,适当进行文化补偿,准确传达深层文化内涵。

ACTIVITY: CASE ANALYSIS
Case analysis:
• This case can reflect assuming similarity instead of difference. • When communicating with people from another culture, one is likely to regard and treat other people as “his people” and to assume there must be only one way of doing things: that is “his way”. • In this case, the Danish woman assumes that her behavior of leaving the baby alone, which is common in Denmark, is also appropriate in New York. Here, she assumes what is suitable in her own culture is also indisputable in another culture. That is why the small conflict happens.
• A Danish woman in New York parks her baby stroller outside Starbucks and goes inside to have a coffee. • The police is called and they take the baby into custody and file criminal charges against the mother. • How do you interpret the situation?
