《洛阳伽蓝记》中古代城市形态要素类 地名英译策略研究王伊同个案考察 地名英译策略研究 王伊同个案考察 金倩姚伟 陇东学院外国语学院 摘要： 《洛阳伽蓝记》记载了丰富的城市形态要素类地名，涵盖庙社、宫室、府曹、道 路、学校、里坊、园林、城门、水源等重要古代城市形态要素类别。这些地名历 史文化内涵丰富而独特，在英语及西方文化中很少对应，因而成为翻译难点。西 班牙学者艾克西拉的“文化专有词”翻译策略适用于城市形态要素类地名翻译 研究，可用来考察美籍华裔学者王伊同在《洛阳伽蓝记》中采用的地名翻译策略。 通过数据统计分析可知，王伊同总体上采用了文化保留性翻译策略，且针对洛 阳城内不同的城市形态要素适时调整翻译方法。王伊同的翻译策略有助于西方读 者藉由城市形态要素的引导，更全面深入地了解中国古代的历史和文化。 关键词： 《洛阳伽蓝记》；城市形态要素类地名;文化专有词;翻译策略; 作者简介：金倩(1986—),女，甘肃庆阳人，讲师，硕士，主要从事屮国古代 典籍的翻译与研究。 收稿日期：2017-09-07 基金：陇东学院青年科技创新项目《翻译社会学视阈下〈洛阳伽蓝记〉英译研究》 (XYSK1701) On the Translation of Elements of Urban Forms in A Record of Buddhist Monasteries in Lo-yang A Case Study on Wang Yitungs Translation JIN Qian YAO Wei College of Foreign Languages, Longdong University; Abstract： Luoyang Qielan Ji contains a large number of elements of urban forms place names, ranging from temples, palaces, government offices, schools, roads, wards, gardens city gates to source of water, which presents great chai 1enge to the translator with its unique cultural characteristic. Javier Franeo Aixclas taxonomy of tremslation stratcgics for treating culture specific words will be employed to examine the translation strategies adopted by Wang Yitung in translating these elements of urban forms. It is found that Wang Yitung tends to adopt cultural conservation strategies whi1e occasionally, according to different elements, adjusting translation methods. Ilis adoption of tremslation stratcgics, which won overall praise in the field of sinology with careful annotation and reliable sources, can not only enlighten the translation of names about Chinese historical sites, but also provide a better understanding of the development of Chinese ancient cities and culture in a deeper level.
