On Cultural Elements in Literary Translation_英语专业毕业论文.docVIP

On Cultural Elements in Literary Translation Abstract Language is an integrated part of culture. As is known, there are lots of languages in the world. So there are lots of different cultures. In translation cultural elements usually pose a problem for translators. It is indispensable to attach importance to cultural elements in literary translation. The culture is very important for literary translation. The role of language within a culture, the influence of the culture on language are so pervasive that scarcely any text can be adequately understood without careful consideration of its cultural background. To sum up, languages do not operate in isolation but within and as part of cultures; cultures differ from each other in various ways and there is by no means a one-to-one relation of exact lexical equivalence between their languages in most cases. Translators have to transmit special cultural qualities from one language to another through a multi-pronged approach. From this perspective it is necessary for them to possess cross-cultural consciousness. Key words: translation, language, culture, cultural elements 摘 要 语言是文化的综合部分。我们都知道，世界上有许多种语言，所以自然有许多种不同文化。翻译过程中，文化通常是翻译程序的一个重要要素。它是翻译的基础，它能够改善文化体制，它从各个方面反映当今的社会现象。因此，翻译必须受到语言的限制，翻译的综合反映就是语言的精髓。语言对文化的影响渗透到各个方面，所以必须充分了解文化背景才能足够地理解本文。从这个透视中，他们拥有交叉文化的意识是必要的，他们必须从语言的要素去彻底把握翻译的结构以及它的理论基础。 总之，语言不能孤立存在，它是文化的一个部分。在一般情况下，它们的语言是均等的，但不是一对一的关系。所以，翻译者不得不用细微的方法，把一种语言转化为专门的文化质数。 关键词：翻译；语言；文化；文化要素 Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………i Contents……………………………………………………厖厖厖卛ii ct……Introduction 厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖?1 1. i ct……………………Language and Culture 厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖厖 1 1.1 The definition of language and culture厖厖厖厖厖厖? 1.2 The relation of language and culture厖厖厖厖厖厖? 2.
