读者反应论reader's response/responses of receptors
奈达早期的重要论点之一,在其《翻译科学初探》(1964)中提出。
他说:译文“接受者和译文信息之间的关系应该与原文接受者和原文信息之间的关系基本上相同”。
“翻译的重点不应当是语言的表现形式,而应当是读者对译文的反应”。
奈达从社会语言学和语言交际功能的观点出发,认为翻译必须以接受者为服务中心,要根据不同接受者的要求而对译文作相应调整。
奈达既是翻译理论家,也是翻译《圣经》的专家。
他认为《圣经》传达上帝的旨意,其语言对古代读者和听众来说是浅显易懂的,今天没有任何理由为追求语言的精美而阻碍平民直接聆听上帝的教诲。
他强调指出,任何信息如果起不到交际即思想交流的作用,就会变得毫无价值。
“要判断某个译作是否译得正确,也必须以译文的服务对象为衡量标准。
”也就是说,要判断译文质量的优劣,必须看读者对译文的反应如何,同时必须把这种反应和原作读者对原作的反应加以比较,看两种反应是否基本一致。
奈达的读者反应论20世纪80年代初进入我国译界,是有争议的。
思辨英语视阈下的读者反馈理论综述
思辨英语视阈下的读者反馈理论综述作者:姜婷仪来源:《赤峰学院学报·哲学社会科学版》2022年第01期摘要:英语教学作为各阶段教育的重要组成部分,肩负着深化教学改革,满足新时期国家和社会对人才培养需求的重大任务。
学生除了应当具备英语的综合应用能力之外,还应当具有一定的思辨能力。
在各教育阶段的英语教学过程中应用Louise Rosenblatt开创的读者反馈理论(reader response theory)教授阅读,可以将教学模式从传统的“以老师为中心”转变为“以学生为中心”,并通过图式理论和反馈日记的辅助作用,逐步培养学生的思辨能力。
国内外的教师和研究者应用读者反馈理论进行阅读教学的实践都证明,这一方法能够帮助学生逐步成为独立而有见地的阅读者,进而具有一定的思辨能力。
关键词:思辨能力;读者反馈理论;读者反馈研究中图分类号:H319.3 文献标识码:A 文章编号:1673-2596(2022)01-0084-06一、英语教学现状过去的很多年,我国传统的教育体系使不少英语老师习惯于在阅读课上详细讲解作者和相关历史事件等背景知识,以及生词、语法规则和文章结构等对于学生应试至关重要的内容。
另一方面,受儒家教育的影响,很多孩子从小就形成了固有的思维模式,以规定的结构进行思考和写作,而不敢轻易表达自己的观点。
这种传统的以教师为中心的课堂里,师生间的互动较少,不能很好地激发学生对于文章的开阔的和有创造性的思考[1],学生思维能力的发展有可能会受到极大的牵制,从而阻碍他们成为独立的思考者。
近年来,随着全球化竞争的推进,很多国家都将思辨能力列入了各级教育的培养任务中。
“思辨”一词,最早语出《礼记·中庸》:“博学之,审问之,慎思之,明辨之,笃行之”。
“慎思”与“明辨”强调周密的思考和明晰的分辨,即基于对信息的分析,而并非信息的简单叠加。
培养思辨能力,就要求我们通过对事物或问题的分析、推理、评估,最终解决问题,或形成决策和结论。
从读者反映论看文学翻译
从读者反映论看文学翻译作者:李彬靳翘楚来源:《大东方》2017年第06期摘要:运用相应适当的翻译策略,能让文学作品中的精彩得到最大限度的表现。
以读者反映论为理论指导,在翻译过程中将读者放在首位。
结合在翻译过程中出现的典型实例,分析翻译策略和技巧,并得出结论。
关键词:文学翻译;读者反映论;翻译Key words: literary translation;Reader-response Theory ; translationAbstract: In translation,we should pay attention to readers’ response and give first priority to readers. Combined with the typical cases in translation and guided by the Cultural Theory of Translation, the practice report mainly discusses how to choose translation strategies when dealing with the typical difficulties, and then a conclusion is drawn.古今中外产生过大量的著名文学作品,他们以高超的艺术手法、生动故事情节、鲜明的认为形象、广阔的社会信息和作者对社会的观察受到读者的喜爱。
一、读者反映论读者反映论(Reader-response Theory)源于文学理论中的读者反映批评理论(Reader-response Criticism),强调以读者对文学作品的反应为中心。
美国翻译名家奈达首先将读者反映论用于翻译,读者反映论是作为奈达动态对等理论(Dynamic equivalence)的解释提出来的,奈达(1964)认为:“翻译既然是一种交际,那么,不对信息接受者的作用进行全面的研究,对交际的任何分析都是不完整的。
接受理论和读者反应批评概要
文学文本 和 文学作品
文本是指作家创造的同读者发生关系之前的作品本身的自 在状态;作品是指与读者构成对象性关系的东西,它已经 突破了孤立的存在,融会了读者即审美主体的经验、情感 和艺术趣味的审美对象。 文本是以文字符号的形式储存着多种多样审美信息的硬载 体;作品则是在具有鉴赏力读者的阅读中,由作家和读者 共同创造的审美信息的软载体。 文本是一种永久性的存在,它独立于接受主体的感知之外, 其存在不依赖于接受主体的审美经验,其结构形态也不会 因事而发生变化;作品则依赖接受主体的积极介入,它只 存在于读者的审美观照和感受中,受接受主体的思想情感 和心理结构的左右支配,是一种相对的具体的存在。由文 本到作品的转变,是审美感知的结果。也就是说,作品是 被审美主体感知、规定和创造的文本。

接受美学
接受美学(Receptional Aesthetic)又称接受理论、 接受研究,接受方法,是西方文学研究中一 种新兴的方法论。因为它产生于联邦德国南 部康斯坦茨,又称康斯坦茨学派。
康斯坦茨学派: 1960年代, 5位德国学者聚集在德国南部新建的 康斯坦茨大学提出了接受美学。 代表人物: 汉斯·罗伯特·姚斯(Hans Robert Jauss)、 沃尔夫冈·伊瑟尔(Wolfgang Iser)。
READER RESPONSE THEORY
2. Defining a reader and a text: All ask the question, "What is a text?" Is it simply words on a page? Does the real text actually exist in the mind of the reader? Or does it exist through the interaction of text and reader? They also ask, "What is a reader?" Are there different kinds of readers? What makes readers different? Do difr kinds of readers?
01
Plato and Aristotle——The reader as Passive Agent. Looking at the effect of the literary work on the reader or
audience.
From Plato's time until the beginning of the romantic movement at the beginning of the 1800s, such a passive view of the reader predominated. Although many critics recogmized that a text did indeed have an effect on its readers, criticism concerned itself primarily with the text.
接受理论和读者反应批评
伊瑟尔是从研究“新批评”和叙事理论走向文学接受理论的,他的理论 兴趣主要在个别文本与读者的关系,注重对文本接受过程中读者能动作 用的细致考察,因而他的理论也被称为微观接受理论。 他将自己的接受美学研究称作作用美学或效应美学。
什么是“召唤结构”?
“召唤结构”(The Appeal Structure),即由意义的不确定性 与艺术空白构成的文本结构,对读 者的参与再创造,具有一种刺激与 召唤作用,令人震惊,令人百读不 厌、常读常新、回味无穷。 • 伊瑟尔接受了英伽登 的作品存在理论和伽达默尔 的视野 融合理论,加以改造和综合形成了“文本的召唤结构”这一 术语。召唤性是文学文本最根本的结构特征。 • 伊瑟尔强调“空白”是文本召唤读者阅读的结构机制,具有 多种表现形式。 • 伊瑟尔认为文本的“否定性”也是一种召唤读者阅读的结构 性机制,它唤起读者熟悉的主题和形式并对之加以否定。 • “空白”、“空缺”和“否定”构成文本的“否定性”,联 结作者创作意识和读者接受意识,促使读者在阅读中赋予不 确定以确定的含义。
康斯坦茨学派: 1960年代, 5位德国学者聚集在德国南部新建的 康斯坦茨大学提出了接受美学。 代表人物: 汉斯·罗伯特·姚斯(Hans Robert Jauss)、 沃尔夫冈·伊瑟尔(Wolfgang Iser)。
接受美学是以现象学和阐释学为理论基础的。接受美学与阐释学不 同的是,它不再只是关注对过去文本的理解,而是研究读者在整个 文学接受活动中的作用,因此它也是“一个全新的发展”。 ------ 马新国 ※ 接受美学是20世纪60年代后期兴起于联邦德国 的一个美学学派,由德国康茨坦斯大学文艺学教授 姚斯在1967年提出。 ※ 接受美学的核心是从受众出发,从接受出发。 强调读者或者阅读行为在阐释文本问题上的作用, 认为在文学阐释中,最重要的因素不是文本,而是 读者。 ※ 这种批评理论寻求阅读文学活动的理论化,探 讨其动力机制,界定阅读文学活动的因素,分析针 对具体文本的阅读活动的机理。

读者反映理论
Real Reader⏹The “real readers”, or members of a particular reading public, are historicallyreal people. To reconstruct these readers, one needs to know, among other things, the norms (both literary and social) of their time, their emotions and attitudes aroused by the work, and the critical judgments they passed on it.⏹Here Iser must have in mind the work of his colleague H.R. Jauss, whose“aesthetics of reception” deals chiefly with the “history of responses”. Hypothetical Reader⏹Unlike the real historical reader, the hypothetical reader owes its existence tothe critic when the latter creates it as the receiver of the potential effect of a particular work.⏹There are two types of the hypothetical reader (as shown in the diagram), butwhat concerns Iser more is the first type, the ideal reader, because the second type, the contemporary reader, though often casually mentioned by critics, is difficult to specify.⏹Unlike the real reader and the contemporary reader, the ideal reader is a“fictional being” tha t crops up now and then in discussions of contemporary theory, often with different references and implications. P.J. Rabinowitz, for instance, defines it as theoretical models (such as G. Prince‟s “narratee”, W.Gibson‟s “mock reader”, and even Iser‟s “implied reader”) that help to show the ideal operation or processing of the text.The Psychologically Describable Reader⏹The reader in this category refers to one “whose psychology has been openedup by the findings of psychoanalysis” (Iser, 1987, pp.27-28). The typical psychoanalytical reader is found in the work of N. Holland, who defines his psychoanalytical reading of texts as “transactive criticism”, and his reader as the “transactive reader”, namely, one who “works explicitly from his transaction of th e text”The Reader as Heuristic Models⏹This category is important for the present discussion because Iser‟s “impliedreader” is, to a great extent, one such model along with many others.⏹We will begin our discussion of Iser‟s reading theory by first reca lling some ofthe “limitations” of the concepts of the reader discussed just now, in order to see how Iser tries to avoid, or rather, to overcome them in his model of the reader.The problem with the “real reader”, as we have seen, is that the reconstruc tion of the horizon of expectations depends heavily on the availability of historical data. The “ideal reader”, on the other hand, is believed to presuppose the total consumption of the work and therefore demolishes the very basis of its potential effects on the reader. As for Holland and Fish who try to locate meaning in the reader‟s mind (the unconscious for Holland and the internalized competences for Fish), the link seems loose between the literary experience they are talking about and the process ofcommunication that takes place to shape this very experience.Against these “limitations” Iser‟s concept of the reader stands as a good contrast. He says:⏹If, then, we are to try and understand the effects caused and the responseselicited by literary works, we must allow for the reader‟s presence without in any way predetermining his character or his historical situation. We may call him, for want of a better term, the implied reader. He embodies all those predispositions necessary for a literary work to exercise its effect -- predispositions laid down, not by an empirical outside reality, but by the text itself. Consequently, the implied reader as a concept has his roots firmly planted in the structure of the text; he is a construct and is in no way to be identified with any real reader. (179)The passage quoted above is a concentrated expression of Iser‟s basic ideas concerning the construction of his model and his reactions to the other models. It shows⏹i) the implied reader, as a theoretical construct, could avoid the practicaldifficulties faced by the concept of the “real reader”,⏹ii) though it does not stand for any actual reader, the concept itself implies hispresence and his operation in the process of literary communication,⏹iii) the implied reader carries within itself the “predispositions” that ensure theliterary work both to produce the desired effects on the reader and to elicit relevant responses from him, and⏹iv) what constitutes a major difference between Iser and Holland or Fish isthat the predispositions necessary for the production of effects and responses are determined not by personal desires or competences, but by the very structure of the text itself.Iser‟s concept of the implied reader may be better apprehended through an examination of its structure. From the above brief account it is clear that this structure should be able to account for both the “predispositions” prestructured by the text and the actualizations performed by the reader. For the former, Iser proposes the concept of “the reader‟s role as textual structure”, and for the latter, “the reader‟s role as structured acts”.Each author, in his composition of a fictional work, selects useful materials to create a world of his own inventions, which in on e way or another represents the author‟s view of the real world. But few authors would present their views too explicitly or directly if they want their works to achieve any effect on the reader. Generally, the author‟s view is expressed through the variou s perspectives in the text, which perform two functions, namely, to “outline the author‟s view and also provide access to what the reader is meant to visualize” (180)Thus the textual structure of the implied reader, as we have seen, is composed of or prestructured by three basic components: the textual perspectives, their convergentplace, and the vantage point of the reader. The last two components, i.e., the convergent place of the textual perspectives and the vantage point of the reader, however, only remain potential in the textual structure and have to be actualized by the reader. This actualization is made possible by the other component of the implied reader, i.e., the structured acts.We may take A Dream of Red Mansions for an illustration of the concept of the implied reader. At the beginning of Chapter One, the viewpoints from the narrator‟s perspective tell that the whole story is but the dreams and illusions of the author, therefore the reader‟s vantage point decides that the story is purely f ictional.But this is immediately followed by the statement (another textual viewpoint) that the story is a record of the girls the author has known well, and that the dreams and illusions actually represent the real intention of the novel. So the reader changes his vantage point and believes that the story is real.Then the origin of the story (another textual viewpoint) from the perspective of the Reverend V oid once again puts the reader in an uncertain position as to the credulity of the story, but th is uncertainty is soon cleared up, this time from the stone‟s perspective, when the reader is told that the story is based on true facts without any modification.But this is not all, the reader‟s vantage point may undergo another shift to the contrary when he comes to the Illusory Land of Great V oid (太虚幻境) revealed through the perspective of the plot, especially when he reads the couplet “假作真时真亦假;无为有处有还无” “When false is taken for true, true becomes false; If non-being turns into being, being becomes non-being. ”The perspectives and viewpoints prescribed by the text provide instructions for the reader to build up mental images. The continuous replacement of these images results in shifts of the reader‟s vantage point, reflecting his changing attitudes in the process of reading. Finally, the textual viewpoints and the reader‟s vantage point meet at the convergent place, where the meaning potential of the work is actualized by the reader‟s structured acts.After these shifts of vantage point, most readers would finally agree, as indicated by the author‟s viewpoints, that the pages of the novel are not full of fantastic talks (“满纸荒唐言”), nor would they call the author mad (“都云作者痴”), but that they should read the story carefully and try to understand the au thor‟s message (“解其中味”)This is what we might call the final convergent place of the textual viewpoints and the reader‟s vantage points, or the meaning reached by the reader about the credulity of the story, after his interaction with the text under the guidance of the textual perspectives.From the above description of the implied reader, we may make several general observations about the concept:⏹1) Iser‟s theoretical construct of the implied reader is not an actual reader, noris it an abstraction of it. For any concept of the reader which centers chiefly on the reader to the neglect of other elements in the process of reading is unlikely to give an account of literary communication.⏹2) The implied reader is thus best understood as a phenomenological constructof the actual reader with two roles both as textual structure and as structured acts. These two roles are interrelated and interdependent in that the textual structure provides framework of perspectives for the structured acts to work within, while the latter implements the former to determine a vantage point and to arrive at the convergent place.Y et, the two roles are also in a sense separate, because only a separation allows of the possibility of a relationship between them and makes possible their mutual interaction and final combination in the concept of the implied reader. Just as the idea of the literary work is the result of the interaction between the text and the reader, the two are “separate” though by no means “autonomous” objects.T. Eagleton, believes that “Iser is aware of the social dimension of reading, but chooses to concentrate largely on its …aesthetic‟ aspects”, therefore his reader does not have a foothold in history (Eagleton, 1985, p.83).S.R. Suleiman has made a similar observation when she says that Iser‟s reader “is not a specific, historically situated individual but a transhistorical mind whose activities are ... everywhere the same”. She gives credit to Iser‟s effort at introducing a historical dimension to the description of the reading process by the use of the repertoire, but complains that his readers are still “implied”, not actual (Suleiman in Suleiman & Crosman, 1980, pp.25-26).Iser tries to keep in his phenomenological reader both its virtual presence in terms of “textual repertoire” or “structured acts” and brackets its historical presence. This treatment of the historicity of the reader in a way resembles the textualization of history and the idea of “praxis” (i.e., theoretical but not social practice) fa vored by the post-structuralists (cf. Zhu Gang. 2001, pp.173-175).Other Heuristic Models of the Reader: H.R. Jauss: The Historical ReaderJauss has devised a particular reader, labeled by Jauss himself as “the historical reader”:⏹The role of this historical reader should presuppose that one is experienced inone‟s associations with lyrics, but that one can initially suspend one‟s literary historical or linguistic competence, and put in its place the capacity occasionally to wonder during the course of the reading, and to express this wonder in the form of questions. (Jauss, 1989, p.144)⏹First, this historical reader is one who deals with the effect of a literary workand the reader‟s response to it, and helps to reveal the nature of literary reading as an eventful and process-like experience in more or less the same way as Iser‟s implied reader shows. But the historical reader only wonders during the course of reading. Though this is a clear indication of the reader playing a role and responding to the effects of the text, it does not, in fact, say much about the intricate relationship between the reader and the text.Secondly, contrary to the ideal reader who is free to use his perfect historical knowledge and literary competence, the historical reader suspends both of these in order to have “the capacity occasionally to wonder”. This is understandable, for a reader with perfect knowledge and competence would only provide answers, rather than pose questions to bring about an aesthetic experience.Stanley Fish is perhaps the best known and most polemic American reader-response critic of all . Many of his early ideas (the dramatic nature of reading, the temporal unfolding of meaning, the active role played by the reader in the reading process, etc.) come closest to those of Iser‟s, yet one great difference between them, among others, is reflected in the concept of the role of the reader in their respective heuristic models.For Fish, this reader is someone who projects, expects and corrects his responses all the way as he moves from one word to the next in his linear processing of a text. In formulating his theory of reading, Fish draws on the theory of Chomskian transformational-generative grammar.Fish builds up his model of the reader, which he calls the “informed reader”, characterized by three notable competences: i) competence in the language of the text; ii) semantic competence; and iii) literary competence. The combination of these three competences, as Fish assures us, would unfailingly make any actual reader an “informed” one, and enable him to realize the potential and probable responses a text might elicit. The “informed reader”, therefore, is an abstraction of the idealized actual reader.Iser has observed in his critique of Fish‟s theory t hat the informed reader must “observe his own reactions during the process of actualization, in order to control them” (Iser, 1987, p.32). What Iser is saying here is that Fish‟s reader himself functions as a controlling element in the reading process, as the responses are regulated and organized by the three competences internalized in the informed reader and thus preexist the actual processing of the text.This difference about the controlling element in reading is ultimately again an epistemological question. Here it is enough to point out that such a difference already anticipates the Iser-Fish debate that took place a few years later, and that with the controlling power invested entirely in the reader, the Iserian process of dyadic二元的interaction between the reader and the text necessarily becomes non-existent. Holland maintains that a person reveals his unique personality in the various things hedoes and the various ideas he expresses. Behind these “behavioral transformations”, however, lies an “invariant”, the “unchanging core of personality”, which he calls the “primary identity”, or “identity theme”, a term he borrowed from the modern psychologist Heinz Lichtenstein, and upon which he builds his theory of transactive criticism.For Holland, literary interpretation is inseparable from the question of identity. It is in fact a function of identity, for differences in interpretation can be accounted for in terms of the differences in personality, both being “variations upon an identity theme” (Holland in Tompkins, 1984, p.123). But what is more important is Holland‟s discovery that the “overarching principle” of the function of identity is that “identity re-creates itself.”That is to say, the reader, while reading, makes use of the text to replicate his own characteristic patterns of desires, anxieties, expectations, etc.. This, as Holland seems to argue, is the purpose of reading a literary work, and it is also what his “transactive reader” actually does in the act of reading.In the reading process in which identity recreation is carried out, what the transactive reader does is to find in the text the match for his expectations (e.g., similar wishes and fears), and then to respond by defending against them with his characteristic strategies, either to gratify the wishes, or to defeat the fears.Once the deep wishes and fears are defensively adapted, the reader will be able to derive from the text “fantasies of the particular kind that yield him pleasure” and, therefore, begin to enjoy the text by transforming the guilt and anxiety aroused by the fantasies into “a total experience of aesthetic, moral, intellectual or social coherence and significance.”The brief description given above concerning the recreation of identity through what Holland calls the DEFT (defence-expectation-fantasy-transformation) mechanism serves to show that the “transactive reader” is neither the real reader nor the ideal reader, but an abstraction of any actual reader who reads psychoanalytically, or rather, who is read psychoanalytically by the text he is reading.The concept of the transactive reader has undoubtedly extended our investigation of the reader into the deeper realms of his unconscious, but as a key element in a theory of reading, it is inadequate for a satisfactory explanation of the complex process of literary reading. To use Culler‟s words, Holland “fails to study reading as a process with its own operations and goals” (Culler in Suleiman & Crosman, 1980, p.55).J. Culler: The Ideal ReaderM.

真正把读者反应原则纳入到翻译标准中的第一 人则是奈达。 他认为,翻译的服务对象是读者或言语接受者, 要评价译文质量如何优劣,必须看读者对译文 的反应如何,同时必须把这种反应和原文读者 对原文可能产生的反应进行比较,看两者反应 是否基本一致。他强调说:“不对信息接受者的 作用进行全面的研究,对文际的任何分析都是 不完整的 。“奈达的读者反应论”则努力迎合 读者的要求,适应读者的接受程度,它不指望 读者对原文的文化背景有深入了解,而倾向利 用读者文化知识来理解译文。

以上两种译文均为名家所译。不可否 认两者都是正确的译文。对于一般读 者从阅读欣赏的角度认为译文二为好。 而学习原语的学习者可能会认为译文 一好一些,因为它保持了原文的语言 形式和单个词义从中便于理解原文的 句法、词法和句义。
• 读者反应论认为,读者是一个不断变化着的接受群体,重 译可以满足不断变化的读者的需要、反映他们的期待视 野、缩短现时读者与已有译本的审美距离。读者反应的 变化往往会引起翻译理论和翻译技巧的变化。 • 读者反应论认为,译者可以合理选择读者(即目标读者) , 翻译理论和翻译实践应充分关注目标读者的期待视野、 审美偏爱和审美能力。否则,这一理论就会失去它的指 导价值,这样的实践最终也是失败的实践。 • 读者反应论并不排除直译。相反,只要目的语提供了可 能性,它提倡这种方法的合理应用,因为人类有着共同的 经验世界可能还有普遍的信息处理策略。翻开翻译的历 史,我们同样也发现直译对丰富译语语言、传播文化信 息起到了积极作用。直译和意译(异化和归化) 体现了对 读者反应的不同态度。从这个意义上说,正确把握读者 反应,并使之与翻译方法有机结合起来关系到翻译的得 失。.

“读者反应论”在公示语翻译中的应用
摘要:奈达的“读者反应论”主旨是评价译本的优劣要看读者的反应是否与源语读者的反应大致相同,因而翻译应以译文读者为中心。目前中国的公示语翻译研究对读者缺乏足够的关注,存在着亦步亦趋,不顾及读者文化习惯;以为当然,不了解读者的文化差异;以我为主,不理会读者感受等问题。文章认为只有把接受者的感受作为决定公示语翻译的传播效果标准,只有认真探讨英语公示语的功能意义和语言文化内涵,才能准确而充分地发挥英语公示语应有的作用。关键词:读者反应论功能对等公示语翻译Abstract: Eugene Nida’s theory of receptor’s response highlights target receptor’s response, which is supposed to be substanti
读者反应理论
读者反应理论
读者反应理论(Reader-Response Theory),是二十世纪七十年代末起流行起来的一种书面文本解读理论,它强调个体读者读者在阅读过程中受自身背景,思想观念,文化心理等影响,对文本产生不同的思考、体验,从而对读者的阅读产生不同的反应。
读者反应理论的出现,有利于建立和认识读者,更加重视读者的地位和现实意义。
读者反应理论并不是单一的理论,它包括整体反应理论,结构反应理论,文化反应理论,文本反应理论等多种学理,给文本解读和文本翻译方面提出了很多更新的解决方法。
在高等教育行业,读者反应理论可以有效地推动教学质量的改善,解决各类课题,提升师生的思考能力、临场反应能力。
学校可以采取多种措施,针对一般课程的教学同时给学生提供多元化的学科学习方法,激发学生的思考热情,加强对不同思维方式的讨论,并根据学生的背景、思想观念等,设计出更加让学生产生共鸣的教学模式,从而让学生能够更加实用地理解教学内容,拓展个人的思维深度和思考宽度,进而使整个教育体系的素质得到提升。
总之,读者反应理论是一种时代性的理论,它对于文本释义和文本翻译方面产生了革命性影响,在高等教学行业也发挥了重要作用,推动着教育体系持续改善着不断发展。

Phenomenology
• It was first put forward by German philosopher Edmund Husserl in 1930s.
• The aim of phenomenology is to go “back to the things themselves,” and to “ lay bare the very structures of consciousness itself.
Aesthetics of Reception or Reception Theory
3/23/2020
It examines the reader’s role in literature ,claiming that there would be no literary work at all without participation of readers.
The readers in reader criticism is different from the previous readers. The reader has a special identity. He is endowed with certain characteristics and performs special functions, for instance ,and he also serves to reveal the nature of reading process and reading experience.
hermeneutics
Modern hermeneutics encompass everything in the interpretative process including verbal and non-verbal forms of communication as well as prior aspects that affect communication , such as presupposition.
Reader-response Theory
1. 2 Who? Wolfgang Iser Reading involves in interaction between elements of the text and the act of reading itself. The text is a potential structure actualised by the reader. Do not study either the text or the reader in isolation, but look at how the reader completes the text. The text has blanks / gaps, which the reader must complete. Stanley Fish Any individual reader is necessarily part of a community of readers, and the individual reader’s response is determined by the conventions of reading that he has been educated into within a certain sociohistorical context.
2.
Theoretical Assumptions:
Literature is a performative art and each reading is a performance, analogous to playing/singing a musical work, etc. Literature exists only when it is read. The literary text possesses no fixed and final meaning or value; there is no one "correct" meaning. Literary meaning and value are "transactional," "dialogic," created by the interaction of the reader and the text.
伊瑟尔读者反应理论
伊瑟尔读者反应理论【内容提要】伊瑟尔后期转向了文学人类学研究,认为自我的呈现与超越是人的基本需要,而文学虚构正是人类呈现并超越自身的一种方式,这是文学何以存在、人类何以需要阅读文学的深刻根源。
伊瑟尔的文学虚构理论提出了一系列独创性的概念,如越界、表演与文本游戏等,包含着与重视文学对经验现实的再现关系的模仿论以及看重语言能指与所指分离的结构主义、后结构主义文论的批判性对话关系,也是伊瑟尔补足并打破他既往的拒绝接受美学研究,在后现代语境下对文学的性质与功能所作的一个富于鼓舞意义的思索。
虽然人们一般都将文学视为一种虚构,但对何为虚构,它包含哪些要素或步骤,又具有什么样的功能,却众说纷纭,莫衷一是。
大致说来,西方对文学虚构的探讨有两种类型:一是模仿论的观点。
它按照文学与经验现实的关系去认知文学虚构,文学被指出就是对现实的一种恶搞。
这样一来,虚构问题被放在一种认识论的框架中,文学做为虚构与生活或历史形成投影,虚构话语正视某种现实,文学就是对现实的置换,是一种反观各种社会组织和社会关系的手段。
模仿论源远流长,影响深远。
持这种观点的人,从古希腊的德谟克利特、亚里士多德,到近代的车尔尼雪夫斯基,以及当代的卢卡契、奥尔巴赫等,延绵不绝;二就是语言论的观点,它基本上就是20世纪初蓬勃发展的结构主义语言学及语言哲学在文学虚构研究中的应用领域。
这种观点将虚构视作文学语言的一种特定的抒发效果,一种语言的能指与所指之间的偏离现象,代表性见解有理查兹(i.a.richards)的“伪陈述”(pseudo-statement)① 、塞尔(j.searle)的“寄生性”(parasitic discourse)话语② 等。
到后结构主义那里,文学虚构的范围被无穷予以不断扩大,沦为与社会历史毫无关系的语言能指的民主自由游戏,“人们已不仅仅把文学中的事件当做虚构,这些事件在获得定义时所表达出来的‘意旨’或‘对世界的观点’,也被当做虚构。
读者反应批评(Reader-Response Criticism)
Rhetorical Criticism-- One of the earliest forms of language study and literary criticism. The study of how language (written and spoken) shapes or affects readers/audience. Looks at techniques for moving or persuading an audience or reader. 2. Romanticism (Wordsworth)-- Emphasis on the Author. The author is the locus of meaning and interpretation. The text is an extension or expression of the author's thoughts and feelings.
作品
艺术家
欣赏者
注重作品(文本)本身的批评是客观说 (objective approach), 注重艺术家(作者)的批评是表现说 (expressive approach), 注重世界(语境)的批评是模仿说(mimetic approach), 注重欣赏者(读者)的批评是实用说 (pragmatic approach)。
Through the transactional process the reader and the text produce a new creation or poem. The text is now defined as an EVENT (or Literary Experience) that takes place and is created during the process of reading and interpretation. A new poem or literary work is created each time a reader interacts with a text.
从读者反应理论看大学英语自主阅读能力的构建
从读者反应理论看大学英语自主阅读能力的构建周海明【摘要】现代阅读教学实践表明,学生掌握一定的当代西方文论知识对阅读英美文学作品颇有益处.在评述大学英语阅读教学的传统模式的基础上,建议教师借鉴沃尔夫冈·伊瑟和斯坦利·费希等人提出的读者反应批评理论,采用文本分析的方法对教材所选作品进行讲解分析,培养学生新的阅读习惯和思维模式,进而系统构建非英语专业学习者的自主性阅读能力.【期刊名称】《盐城工学院学报(社会科学版)》【年(卷),期】2011(024)002【总页数】4页(P81-84)【关键词】读者反应理论;自主性阅读能力;学生中心模式;大学英语教学【作者】周海明【作者单位】盐城师范学院外国语学院,江苏盐城224002【正文语种】中文【中图分类】H319.3一、问题的提出三十年来,我国大学英语教学在课程结构、培养目标、测试体系等方面取得了长足的发展,为我国人才培养和社会经济发展做出了巨大的贡献。
但是,大学英语教学还存在着一些问题与不足,比如,教学模式还不能很好地适应学习者英语综合运用能力的培养[1]。
就阅读教学而言,大学生的英语阅读水平普遍较低,自主性阅读能力的培养成为大学英语教学与研究的一个焦点与难点。
在分析大学英语阅读教学现状的基础之上,本文拟结合沃尔夫冈·伊瑟和斯坦利·费希等人提出的读者反应理论(Reader-Response Theory),从教学模式、教学技巧、学习策略、教师备课、评价机制等五个方面探讨如何有效地培养学生新的阅读习惯和思维模式,进而系统地构建非英语专业学习者的自主性阅读能力。
二、大学英语阅读教学的传统模式及其理论渊源目前,“教师中心”的教学模式并未得到全面改善,不少大学英语教师在讲授阅读时依旧主要围绕语言点展开,阅读课变成了纯粹的语法分析课或单词讲解课,对学生参与的要求不高。
这种模式没有将知识传授、能力培养和素质提高有机地融为一体,极易使课堂气氛变得沉闷,学生只是被动地听,没有机会参与思考与讨论,致使学生对英语阅读课的兴趣减弱。
[原创]读者反应研究对我国幼儿文学教育的启示(定稿)

读者反应研究对读者、阅读和文本进行重新认识,并深入探究读者与文本间的双向交流活动。
这种研究取向对我国幼儿文学的阅读研究与教育具有重要的借鉴意义。
[关键词]读者反应研究;文学阅读;读者;幼儿文学教育读者反应理论(reader-response theory)是兴起于20世纪70年代的文学批评理论,它改变了文学研究的基本范式,从文本和作者研究转向读者和阅读研究,深入探讨读者的文学能力,审美反应能力,致力于深入挖掘阅读活动中读者与文本的双向交流活动。
读者反应理论不仅仅是理念层面的革新,更为文学阅读研究和阅读教学提供了新的视角和方法。
本文综合地介绍读者反应的研究成果,以期为我国的幼儿文学阅读研究与教育打开一个新的视界。
一、接受反应批评:读者中心论范式的确立以胡塞尔、海德格尔、加达默尔的现象学和本体论解释学为理论基础,20世纪60年代接受美学(reception-aesthetics)在德国创立,其代表人物是汉斯·罗伯特·姚斯、沃尔夫冈·伊瑟尔。
20世纪70年代,接受美学在美国产生重大反响,并与本土的理论家合流形成了读者反应批评理论(reader-response criticism),其代表人物有路易斯·罗森布莱特(Louise M. Rosenblatt)、诺曼·霍兰德(Norman Holland)、阿兰·普维斯(Alan Purves)、理查德·布奇(Richard Beach)、戴维·布莱奇(David Bleich)和查理斯·库珀(Charles R. Cooper)等。
接受美学和读者反应批评两者共同构成了读者中心的批评范式。
读者中心的批评范式实现了从作者、文本到读者的转变,第一次从本体论的高度提出了历来为人们所忽视的读者和阅读接受问题。
