Towards a Multi-dimensional Construction of Translation Criticism
Serving as a crucial bridge between translation practice and theory,translation criticism plays a pivotal role in the development of translation studies.To ensure an integration of theory and practice,a well-constructed model of translation criticism should first of all be theoretically informed.Only when they are theoretically guided can the operations of translation criticism become rigorous and credible.Such a model must next be axiologically enhanced so as to properly restrain the translators'actions,assure the quality of translated works,build up readers'interest,and perform its own overall function of fostering cultural exchanges.Since each era tends to have its unique disposition,the model should also be emotively in tune with the temper of the times and the prevailing sentiments.And as a component of translation studies,this model of criticism must not just build itself on the conceptual assumptions of the discipline as a whole but strive to become interdisciplinary in its scope and perspective.
