摘要
根据言语行为理论,语言交际的基本单位不是语句,而是言语行为,说话者说话时可能同时实施3种行为,即言内行为、言外行为和言后行为."法家"这一典籍核心术语在被翻译成legalist时,所产生的言语行为极为负面,与被翻译成standardizer时所产生的言语行为差别较大,所构建的话语功能也不同."法家"的英译说明,译者应充分重视典籍核心术语翻译的独特话语构建功能,从文本所负载的思想意义整体跨文化构建来考量,着眼全局,慎重选择.
Abstract
According to the speech act theory,the basic unit of verbal communication is not the statement,but the speech act.A spea-ker might be performing three acts simultaneously,namely,locutionary act,illocutionary act and perlocutionary act.When Fa-jia,a core term in ancient Chinese works,is translated into"legalist",a very negative speech act is produced,while a different speech act is produced when Fajia is translated into"standardizer",thus the different discourse function.The translation of Fajia illustrates that when translating a core term in ancient Chinese works,the translator is supposed to attach much importance to the unique discourse function,taking the cross-cultural construction of the textual meaning as a whole and making a prudent choice.
