及物性视域下的《茶经》英译本比较研究

A Comparative Study of English Translations of Cha Jing from the Perspective of Transitivity

摘要: 本文从语用学视角出发，基于韩礼德的系统功能语言学理论，特别是及物性系统，对卡彭特译本与姜怡、姜欣译本进行了异同比较。本研究通过构建两个译本的小型语料库，结合定量与定性分析方法，系统考察译文中的及物性过程。具体来讲，从及物性特点、文本风格、读者倾向性以及文化传达度等多维度进行探讨，对两部译本展开全面且客观的对比研究。本文旨在通过理论与实践相结合的方式，为《茶经》英译本的研究提供新视角，进一步丰富翻译研究的理论框架和实践路径。

Abstract: This paper adopts a pragmatic perspective and is grounded in Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics theory, particularly the transitivity system, to conduct a comparative analysis of Carpenter’s translation and Yi Jiang & Xin Jiang’s translation. Through the construction of small corpora for both translations and the integration of quantitative and qualitative analytical methods, this study systematically examines the transitivity processes in the translated texts. Specifically, it explores multiple dimensions, including transitivity features, textual style, reader orientation, and cultural transmission, to conduct a comprehensive and objective comparative study of the two translations. This paper aims to provide a new perspective for the study of English translations of Cha Jing (The Classic of Tea) through the combination of theory and practice, further enriching the theoretical framework and practical pathways of translation studies.
