Three Approaches to Investigating the Effect of Translation Criticism
The effect of translation criticism refers to the influences translation criticism activities exert.Its research aims essentially to discover the value of translation criticism.While translation scholars in general have shown a keen interest in studying the values of translation,not much attention has as yet been turned to investigating the effect of translation criticism.To address the discrepancy,this paper subjects some real-life cases of translation criticism to a close examination and,on the basis of this study,proposes three approaches to investigating the effect of translation criticism,namely,the textually-oriented approach,the policy-focused approach and the culturally-informed approach.The paper argues that taking these approaches to studying the effect of translation criticism could help to disclose the positive significance of criticism in improving translation quality,optimizing translation theory and facilitating the development of translation discipline in general.It also throws light on the general role played by criticism in enriching social and cultural life and thus heightens people's awareness of the value of critical practices in the realm of translation.
