TheForeignizingTranslation班级：09级英师三班姓名：彭珍珍学号：20094033035摘要：异化翻译法是翻译策略中的一种重要方法，在翻译中发挥越来越重要的作用，越来越受翻译界的重视。这种以源语文化为导向的翻译法，使译文冲破目的语常规，保留原文中的异国情调，把外国文本中的语言文化差异注入目的语中，把读者送到外国去。这有利于促进文化学习与交流，同时，还能极大地丰富目的语的表达方式，有助于读者扩大视野，吸收新鲜养分，从而丰富本国文化。但是，异化翻译可能导致译文“不顺”，难以做到翻译中的“达”或“雅”，甚至可能使读者产生误解或者根本不理解译文的意思。面对异化翻译的优点和不足，本文着重谈论异化翻译法对文化交流所起的促进作用。而且认为，异化翻译法会促使不了解异国文化的读者更有兴趣去学习异国文化，而不是逃避差异。异化翻译对促进文化交流做出了不可磨灭的贡献。Keywords:异化翻译法（foreignizingtranslation）源语文化(sourcelanguageculture)文化差异(culturaldifference)文化交流(culturalcommunication)异国文化(foreignculture)源语文本（sourcetext）译文（targettext）(一)IntroductionForeignizingtranslationisatranslationstrategywhichdeliberatelybreaksthetargetlanguageconventionsbyretainingtheforeignnessoftheoriginal.ItisSL(sourcelanguage)culture-oriented.ThenameofforeignizingisfirstputforwardbyLawrenceVenuti,anAmericanscholar,buttherudimentofthisconceptisfirstseenin1813inthespeechmadebyFriedrichSchleiermacher,aGermanscholar.InthemanuscriptofthespeechcalledOntheDifferentMethodsofTranslation,Schleiermacherpresentedtwodifferentwaysoftranslation.Hesaid,“translatorseitherdotheirbestnottodisturbtheauthoroftheoriginalworksandletthereaderscomeclosetotheauthor,ornottotroublethereadersandmaketheauthorclosetothereaders.”(Schulte&Biguenet,1992:42).ActuallytheformerpartinhiswordsdescribesForeignizationvividly.Accordingtothedefinitionmadebythesescholars,wecanlearnthatthistranslationtheorystressesthetranslatedtextshouldbesourcelanguageculture-oriented.Forexample,ifwetranslatethefamousdramainourcountry《梁山伯与祝英台》intoButterflyLover,weusethestrategyofforeignizingintranslation.Ofcourse,foreigncountrieshaven’tthepeopleLiangshanboandzhuyingtai,buttheyhavethesimilarlovestories,justlike,RomeoandJuliet.Thecentreideaorprincipleofthisstrategyissourcelanguageculture-oriented,especiallyinthetranslationofthe“culture-specific-item”(CSI).OnlybydoingthiscanthetranslatedtextretaintheSLcultureandtransmittheoriginalculturetotheforeignreaders.However,asweknowthattranslationaimsatpromotingthetransmittingofinformationb
