西ห้องสมุดไป่ตู้译论简介
西塞罗： “我不是作为解释员而是作为演说家进行翻译的，不是字当句对，而是保留语言的总的风格和力量。”泰特勒的 “翻译三原则”： 1) 译文应完全传达原作的思想； 2）译文的风格与笔调应与原作属于同一性质； 3）译文应具有原作的流畅性。 费道罗夫的等值翻译思想： 1）与原文作用相符（表达方面的等值）； 2) 译者所选用的语言材料的等值（语言和文体的等值）奈达的翻译思想： 所谓翻译，是指用一种语言中的语言符号解释另一种语言中的语言符号；是指从语义和文体风格上采用最接近而又最自然的同义语再现原文的信息。 他主张把翻译的重点放在译文读者的反应上。他认为判断译作是否翻译得正确，必须以译文的服务对象为衡量标准。 “衡量翻译质量的标准，不仅仅在于所译的词语能否被理解，句子是否合乎语法规范，而在于整个译文使读者产生什么样的反应。”英国翻译理论家：纽马克（Peter Newmark)
