1.What is culture?
Tytler: Culture is the complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, law, morals, customs, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man, as a member of society. Peter Newmark: culture is the way of life and its manifestations that are peculiar to a community that uses a particular language as its means of expression.

2. 逻辑与感悟
英语注重运用各种有形的联结手段达到语法形式 的完整,其表现形式严密地受逻辑形式支配,句 子组织严密,层次井然扣接,以形显义; 汉语在表现形式上受意念引导,看上去概念、判 断、推理不严,句子松散,以神统形,要靠读者 自己去推理和感悟。 举例: 让世界了解中国,让中国走向世界。 Let the other people of the rest of the world know China. Let China make close contact with the rest of the world.

1. 直率与含蓄
西方人喜外露,中国人喜含蓄。英语经常表态在 前,叙事在后;汉语经常相反。英汉对译时,信 息中心常需做前后调整。 例如:I am very happy to receive your message of greetings. 译文:接到你的贺信,我十分高兴。 The two sides found it beneficial to have this opportunity to present to one another their views on a variety of issues. 译文:现在有机会互相介绍彼此对各种问题的观 点,对此,双方认为是有利的。

2. Relationship between language, culture and translating
Culture involves every aspect of life. Words only have meaning in terms of culture. Cultural awareness is very important. Language is a part of culture and can reflect /transmit culture. Biculturalism is more important than bilingualism.

3. 褒贬与曲直
英汉语都存在着对一个事物的褒贬态度,但问题 是,许多场合中,褒贬的含义并不能从字面或词 汇本身中看出来,往往要通过上下文来决定,翻 译时要尽量正确理解原文,表现真实的含义。 A:英语中有些词本身就有褒贬,汉译时相应译出。 He was a man of high renown. 译文:他是位有名望的人。(褒) His notoriety as a rake did not come until his death. 译文:他作为流氓的恶名是他死后才传开来的。 (贬)

C. 英汉思维比较与翻译
概述: 傅雷:东方人与西方人之思想方式有基本分歧, 我人重综合,重归纳,重暗示,重含蓄;西方人 则重分析,细微曲折,挖掘唯恐不尽,描写唯恐 不周… 语言与思维存在密不可分的联系。中西方思维模 式的差异,影响到语言的基本结构、用词选句。

3. 褒贬与曲直
B: 英语中有些词义是中立的,翻译时应根据上 下文做褒贬取舍。 He was a man of integrity, but unfortunately he had a certain reputation. I believe the reputation was not deserved. 译文:他是一个正直诚实的人,但不幸有某种坏 坏 名声。我相信他这个坏名声 坏名声是不该有的。(贬) 名声 坏名声 Practice: She was vexed by the persistent ringing of the phone.
