汉译英散文佳作赏析：冯骥才《西式幽默》

浅析《围城》英译本中的幽默翻译张扬南京医科大学外国语学院，江苏南京210029[摘要]翻译本身就是一门很深的学问，有自己可以遵循的翻译原则，针对文本中特殊的一部分语言“幽默”来说，在翻译的时候也要遵循最佳关联性和顺应论等翻译原则，这些原则在翻译文本中的幽默语言时很有用。

《围城》英译本中的幽默翻译也遵循了这些原则，翻译出了原文的幽默效果，出现了很多绝妙的翻译之处。

但是幽默的本土性和不一致性给幽默的翻译带来了很大的挑战，致使翻译者在翻译作品时会对原著的幽默理解不准，使用的词汇也会非常的不恰当等，《围城》英译本中幽默的翻译也出现了很多的不足之处。

[关键词]《围城》；钱钟书；幽默翻译７８语文建设２０１６．１２y ūw én ji àn sh è关注教学语言文学文化纵横学术·本中的幽默翻译也遵循了这些原则，幽默的翻译很有原文的幽默效果，出现了很多绝妙的翻译之处。

《围城》中幽默的用法有很多种，例如小说中出现了很多种非常奇特的比喻、滑稽的对比、变异和自创的词汇，经典的典故等等。

对于这种蕴含很深中国文化的中国式幽默，翻译者在翻译的时候也表现出了很高的水准。

第一，对变异自创词汇的翻译。

在《围城》原文中有这样一段话，方鸿渐问辛楣在信上为什么叫他“同情兄”，辛楣转别人的话说同一个学校的人应该叫同学，同一老师的人应该叫同师兄弟，所以共同拥有同一个情人的应该叫同情兄。

译文中把“同情兄”翻译成了“so people who are in love with the same girl should be calledlovemates ”，在这一段话中“同情兄”是钱钟书新创的词汇，并且把它和“同事、同窗”等词汇相互对比，把拥有同一个情人首先，《围城》英译本中翻译者对中国语言的精髓理解不深。

在《围城》中有一句话说的是“无论如何，从此以后，他们俩的交情像热带植物那样飞快的生长。

”这段话的幽默感在于语场的错配，把人与人之间的情感升温的速度比作热带植物生长的速度，语言话题转移得太快、跨度太高，讽刺意味很强。

从文化翻译学视角鉴赏《西式幽默》的翻译翻译文化学派属于西方翻译理论学派的一个重要分支。

冯骥才《西式幽默》的短文对洋老师平时的行为以及一件具体的事——评选作文这两个方面来体现老师的“怪”，以此为线索对他的外貌和平时的行为表现以及面部表情进行描写。

鉴于中西思维差异，本文从文化翻译学视角鉴赏刘士聪先生对《西式幽默》的翻译。

标签：文化翻译学；中西思维差异；西式幽默1引言冯骥才《西式幽默》（Western Humor）生动揭示了中西幽默之异趣，同时引起我们对“幽默”的新思考：一位老实巴交的学生出于私利考虑，在英语作文中胡编乱造，无端美化学校食堂。

同学对此感到愤愤然，并非不知食堂之真相的洋教师，却认为作文取讽刺视角，幽默至极，因此将“说假话”的作文评为“最佳”，故事本身耐人寻味。

文化学视角研究关注译者的个性和主体作用，译者对文本情境情态做了的想象性增补。

汉语以人为中心的语言，一般认为只有人和动物才能活动，英语并不单纯将物体视为被动接受的对象，物质也是能够活动的能动的主体。

东方人是本体的，注重整体和谐，受《易经》哲学影响，强调从多归一的思想；而西方人是分析的，重视分析原则，强调由一到多的思想。

鉴于中西思维差异，本文将从文化翻译学视角鉴赏刘士聪先生对《西式幽默》的翻译。

2文化翻译学及中西思维差异文化翻译注重翻译与译语社会的政治、文化、意识形态的关系，关注翻译作为跨文化交际行为在译语社会中的巨大影响和作用。

与语言学翻译观相比，文化翻译观以译文为重心，强调译者的能动作用，重视文化差异对翻译的影响，以及翻译对文化的作用。

文化翻译观把关注的焦点转移到翻译的结果，把翻译的结果放在社会文化语境的大背景下加以考察，侧重文化交流与融合，并关注动态的文化交流与融合，译文较为灵活，译者的作用可以充分发挥。

文化翻译观以双语文化为取向，根据交流的需要，偏重译语或原语文化，并以文化的世界差异性为前提，尊重不同民族文化的差异性，积极进行交流与融合。

解读《围城》英译本中的语言幽默及翻译策略本文从网络收集而来，上传到平台为了帮到更多的人，如果您需要使用本文档，请点击下载按钮下载本文档（有偿下载），另外祝您生活愉快，工作顺利，万事如意！《围城》是中国著名小说家钱钟书的一部小说，主要是以一种诙谐幽默的语言描写中国传统知识分子一些畸形的价值观的长篇小说。

这部小说在推出以后就引起了世界的关注，被翻译为英语、日语、德育等等近十种语言。

《围城》小说的英译本主要有Jeanne Kelly和Nathan 一起翻译形成的，在西方文学界得到了极高的评价，给予很高的称赞，在准确表达了原有著作特有的幽默风格下，又一定程度之上表达了中国几千年文化的底蕴。

一、《围城》作者及作品简介钱钟书1910年生于中国江苏无锡，是中国现代著名的作家和文学家，曾经任职翻译《毛泽东选集》英文小组中的一员，晚年时是中国科学院的副院长。

钱钟书在文学中的文学批评领域取得了不错的成就，他的支持者把他的文学创作命名为“钱学”。

钱钟书的父亲是著名的国学家钱基博，从小接受了良好的家庭教育，在父亲的深刻影响和监督下，从小就奠定了良好的国学基础。

随后在1929年考进了清华大学的外国语语文系，1937年毕业获得学士学位，在清华大学毕业以后，然后去到法国在巴黎大学进修法语文学，在1938年回到母校，清华大学破格任命他为教授，因为他是在九月与十月之间回到中国。

当时中国已经并入到西南大学，因此他从香港转到昆明去任教，后来在父亲的强烈要求之下，他回到湖南蓝田国立师范学院担任英文系主任，直到1941年他回到上海准备休息几天，但是由于当时爆发了太平洋战争，他因此被困在上海无法回到湖南，直到抗日战争胜利以后，他才得以回到湖南继续教书。

就在这被困在上海的几年时间里，他看似像是流落到一个无人帮助的境地的孤岛上，这也给予他极大的创作时间，他迎来了他创作的巅峰时期。

在抗日战争胜利以及解放战争胜利以后它主要进行翻译和中国文学相关方面的研究，出版了《宋诗选注》、《旧闻四篇》、《七缀集》以及《管锥编》等学术著作。

英语专业教材中幽默讽刺赏析-文档英语专业教材中幽默讽刺赏析综合英语课程是高等学校英语专业基础阶段的专业核心课程，它以文章学习为基础，夯实英专学生的语音、词汇、语法基本功，培养学生的听说读写译综合技能，扩大学生的知识面，提高学生的文章分析批判能力。

我校英语专业综合英语课程长期以来使用了由杨立民教授任总主编外语教学与研究出版社出版的《现代大学英语精读（1-4册）（第一、二版）》。

此套教材为“十一五”国家规划教材，题材广泛，体裁多样，文字语言精准生动，学生除了学习基础知识以外，还能慢慢品味文章的思想美、修辞美、结构美、逻辑美、音韵美。

在学习文章的过程中，英专学生除了理解字面意思以外，还要进一步理解作者通过幽默、讽刺、反话、夸张等文字手段表达的深层感情，而这一点是不太容易的。

本文以此套教材中的经典内容为例，分析鉴赏幽默、讽刺所体现的文章含蓄意义，并与字面意义做比较，希望为英语学习者提供一定帮助。

一、幽默与讽刺的概念及关系幽默，形容有趣或可笑而意味深长。

它是外来词，1924年林语堂按照英文Humour音译而来。

英语、法语中的humour一?~来自古希腊医学，当时人们相信抑郁是由于体内“黑胆汁”过盛所致，而解决方法正是开怀大笑。

英语中Humour一词演化成有趣的意思，也可写作humor，而法文中的humour（或写为Humeur），是指心情，而不存有幽默之意。

讽刺，用比喻、夸张等手法对人或事进行揭露、批评或嘲笑。

英语中经常用satire， mock， irony， sarcasm等来指代讽刺，但这些词汇也可以细分。

过去，人们认为幽默和讽刺不能混为一谈，幽默偏重于搞笑、有趣，而讽刺偏重于批评和挖苦。

但随着社会语言的发展，幽默和讽刺的关系越来越相互融合，很难完全区别开来。

现在。

我们习惯把幽默看成是大的范畴，而讽刺是它的手段之一。

比如，实现幽默的修辞手法有irony （反讽），satire （讽刺），sarcasm （讥讽），pun （双关）等。

翻译研究本栏目责任编辑：梁书试析《爱丽丝漫游奇境记》中的幽默翻译庄佩（海南外国语职业学院，海南文昌571321）摘要：人们普遍认为幽默是不可翻译的，或者至少是很难翻译的，特别是对于英汉两种不同的语言来说，两种语言里所包含的幽默在相互转换的过程中多少都会发生缺失。

该文将从幽默的定义入手，探讨幽默的表达方式，重点对《爱丽丝漫游奇境记》中的幽默的不同中文版本进行了比较分析，由此得出结论：成功的幽默翻译在很大程度上要看能不能生动地表现其幽默效果。

2432019年15期总第455期ENGLISH ON CAMPUS浅析《傲慢与偏见》幽默讽刺的手法和幽默翻译文/李世萍 陶亚宁幽默是一种特殊的语言现象，其社会功能主要是能引人发笑，产生乐趣，因此许多作家常常使用幽默来调节作品的气氛，以达到特定的语言效果。

它分为双关语，迂回说法，讽刺、俏皮话、悖论，夸张，矛盾，提喻，转折和误解。

它将幽默元素融入写作中，与其他写作方法相比这种方法更能使读者参与思考，与作者产生共鸣。

在《傲慢与偏见》中，简·奥斯丁正是运用了这种写作方法使小说更加标新立异，吸引了更多的读者。

一、幽默讽刺的手法具有讽刺意味的修辞方法是欧洲文学传统的一种修辞方法。

一些文学评论家习惯使用这个词来表示任何斜反射，任何矛盾的性格，和不可预见的寓言，任何反常的迹象。

所谓讽刺是指有目的地利用嘲弄来暴露个人或整个社会的愚蠢，腐败或不适当的行为。

简·奥斯丁继承了欧洲文学传统的讽刺，在《傲慢与偏见》中多次使用了这种写作手法。

例如: “My dear Mr. Bennet，” said his lady to him one day， “have you heard that Neitherfield Park is let at last?” Mr. Bennet replied that he had not. “But it is，” returned she; “for Mrs. Long has just been here， and she told me all about it.’ Mr. Bennet madeno answer. “Do not you want to know who has taken it?”cried his wife impatiently. “You want to tell me; and I have no objection to hearing it.’ This is invitation enough. 其中”You want to tell me， and I have no objection to hearing it” 就是一种讽刺的言语。

本文以他的散文《猪之死》和《再回湖上》为例解析他作品中的幽默，探讨产生幽默的四种手段：措辞游戏，反语，出乎意料，夸张；并初步探析了幽默的翻译。

埃尔文·布鲁克斯·怀特（Elwyn Brooks White）（1899—1985）生于纽约，在高中时代就开始写作创作，成为校园报纸的编辑，曾在康奈尔大学就读，为《康奈尔太阳日报》写稿，先后担任美联社与《西雅图时报》的记者，并在《纽约晚邮报》和《纽约先驱报》发表文章和诗歌，是《哈珀斯杂志》专栏作家。

1926年成为20世纪龙头杂志《纽约客》编辑和主要撰稿人。

他是美国当代著名散文家、文学文体学家，20世纪最伟大的美国随笔作家，主要代表作包括：《E.B.怀特的诗与小品》、《文体的要素》、《这就是纽约》、《角落里的第二棵树》、《我罗盘的方向》和《野菖蒲》等。

他还为孩子们写了三本著名的童话《夏洛的网》、《小老鼠斯图亚特》和《吹小号的天鹅》，这三本书都已成为世界畅销的经典故事。

英美文学的译文的赏评方式首先，何为翻译批评？在《中国翻译词典》中，翻译批评被定义为：“参照一定的标准，对翻译过程及其译作质量与价值进行全面的评价。

”笔者认为，所谓的全面评价可以从以下四个方面入手。

首先，翻译本身是一个综合多的对象的过程，它至少包括写作者、翻译者以及译语读者这三个方面，因此，从逻辑上来看，由于文字所蕴含的艺术魅力是源于文本自身的，这就要求必须从文本出发来品味。

翻译批评首先应该从阅读原作入手，从中了解原作者的目的和原作的表达功能；作为语言文化的研究者，在阅读原著的基础上，从中捕捉西方文学的特别元素，了解英美经典文学的基本架构，并总结西方文学阅读的经验，熟知欣赏、评价西方文学作品的基本方法。

为文学批评与赏析奠定良好的基础。

其次，分析比较不同译者的译本，从译作内容层面研究译者的翻译目的、译作体现的翻译方法和原则以及针对特定时代背景下的读者对象的接受程度。

然后，对于译作本身，除了刚刚提及的内容层面，还可以从结构层面上对译作语言本身进行分析，语言是文学内容及情感主题的载体，译作作者只有通过对语言的精心筹划与安排才能塑造出生动形象而符合原作的人物艺术形象，才能讲述出经典永恒的故事情节。

因此，译作作者的语言风格是翻译批评的一个重要研究对象。

对此，笔者认为，至少应该从两个角度进行分析。

1．从修辞的角度文学作品中的修辞手段非常丰富并且不胜枚举，有明喻、暗喻、转喻、提喻、拟人、排比、反语、夸张、委婉语、反讽、对比、押头韵、斜韵等。

在比较不同译作时，应该有意识地分析这些修辞手段的运用，对照原作的语言修辞风格，分析译作使用修辞表达功能的优劣。

这一方面有助于我们深入了解不同语言的生动形象、含蓄幽默以及新颖多彩之处，另一方面，也能最直观最大限度地了解到原作作者的独特风格，从而加深对作品本身价值的掌握。

例如，简•奥斯汀的经典之作《傲慢与偏见》（PrideandPrejudice），小说字里行间俯拾皆是的都是她幽默与讽刺的智慧对白，就拿其标题来说，就运用了压头韵的手法，从语言表达层面上，这迎合了大众文学易读且又极富趣味性的要求。
