切斯特曼翻译伦理视角下《你当像鸟飞往你的山》汉译翻译策略研究

A Study on Chinese Translation Strategies of Educated: A Memoir from the Perspective of Chesterman’s Translation Ethics

摘要: 本研究以切斯特曼的五大翻译伦理模式为分析框架，系统考察任爱红译本在再现、服务、交际、规范及承诺五个维度下的翻译策略选择，揭示各伦理维度之间的侧重差异及其动态制衡关系。研究发现，自传体文学兼具审美性与纪实性，译者在忠实再现原作文本风貌的同时需兼顾目标读者的接受习惯，而伦理视角正可解释译者“为何做出这些选择”的深层动因，为既有女性主义与接受美学取向的研究提供有益补充。任爱红译本的翻译实践表明，在多重伦理准则之间构建动态平衡是自传体文学翻译成功的关键。本研究作为宏观框架下的基础性分析，仍存在案例数量有限、伦理冲突与协调机制探讨尚浅等局限，未来可扩大语料范围，引入多译本对比与读者接受调查等实证方法，以进一步深化对翻译伦理影响策略选择的理解。

Abstract: This study employs Chesterman’s five ethical models of translation as its analytical framework to systematically examine the strategic choices made in Ren Aihong’s translation across five dimensions: representation, service, communication, normativity, and commitment. It aims to elucidate the differing emphases among these ethical dimensions and their dynamic interrelationships. The research finds that autobiographical literature possesses both aesthetic and documentary qualities; consequently, translators must not only faithfully reproduce the stylistic features of the source text but also consider the reception habits of target readers. From an ethical perspective, this approach can help explain the translator’s underlying motivations and answer the question of “why the translator made such strategic choices”, thereby providing valuable supplementary insights to existing research grounded in feminist theory and reception aesthetics. The translational practice of Ren Aihong’s work demonstrates that establishing a dynamic balance among multiple ethical criteria is pivotal to the success of translating autobiographical literature. As a foundational analysis conducted within a macro-level framework, this study still faces certain limitations, including a relatively limited number of case studies and insufficient exploration of ethical conflicts and their resolution mechanisms. Future research could expand the corpus of texts, incorporate comparative analyses of multiple translations, and employ empirical methods such as reader reception surveys, thereby further deepening the understanding of how translation ethics influence strategic decision-making.
