The Analysis and Discussion of Students’ Needs and Translation Strategies on Chinese Classics:

An Interview with Professor Eric L. Hutton

GUO Gaopan1, Eric L. Hutton2

(1. School of English Studies, Shanghai International Studies University, Shanghai 201620, China;

2. Department of Philosophy, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA)

Abstract: The translation and interpretation of Chinese classics provide us an effective way for their overseas communication. While a large amount of Chinese classics have been translated by sinologists, it is convincible to listen to their opinions on Chinese classics’ translation theory, practice and overseas reception. Professor Eric L. Hutton, from the Department of Philosophy of University of Utah, has long been dedicated to translating and teaching Chinese philosophy classics. His research interests include works of philosophers such as Confucius, Xunzi and Hanfeizi. I was honored to have an interview with professor Hutton. He reflected upon his professional experience and his translation of Xunzi as textbook, underlining the reception of Chinese classics among American college students, the translation strategies and compilation principles of  Classical Studies textbooks. It is hoped that this interview would shed some light on the translation of Chinese classics, the development of overseas Chinese philosophy textbooks, and the study of students’ needs and cognitive orientation.

Keywords: Chinese classics translation; Xunzi; Eric L. Hutton; college students textbook

A Study on Canonical Tag Questions in Translation Based on Reception Theory:
Taking English Versions of Hongloumeng as Examples
ZHOU Zhen, WANG Jinjin
(School of Foreign Languages and Cultures, Ningxia University, Yinchuan 750021, China)
Abstract: Based on reception theory, this paper compares canonical tag questions in English versions of Hongloumeng by Chinese translator Yang Xianyi and British sinologist David Hawkes with the assistance of Chinese-English Parallel Corpus of Hongloumeng. The results are as follows: 1) the form of canonical tag questions in both versions conforms to the aesthetic conception of target readers; 2) the frequency and speech functions of canonical tag questions in Hawkes’ version satisfy better target readers’ aesthetic expectation. It has also been found that the differences in translators’ cultural background and translation strategies are the major causes of the discrepancies in the use of canonical tag questions.

动词语境意义变异的类公转型特征及其显著性层级差异

邬菊艳

(上海理工大学 外语学院, 上海 200093)

【摘要】对于语境中的词义变异现象,学界常冠以“不可捉摸”“变化无常”之名,但这貌似无常的背后,是否依然有章可循?本文基于动词与名词互为语境视角,通过考察动词的语义依赖和语义密度两大属性,揭示动词语境意义变异的规律性特征。研究发现有三:一是词义共振原理是动词语境意义变异的机制和动力;二是动词语义因定义缺省,对名词具有依赖性,语境中的动词往往围绕名词进行意义构建,这种词义构建的变异模式体现出行星围绕太阳的类公转型特征;三是动词自身语义密度的高低与类公转型特征的显著性层级成反相关关系。

Revolution-like Features of Verbal Situated Meaning Variation and its Salience Hierarchical Differences

WU Juyan

(College of Foreign Languages, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai 200093, China)

Abstract: Word meaning variation in contexts is widely considered elusive or changeable. However, going behind such seemingly irregular phenomena, do there exist regularities that can be followed? From verb and noun inter-­contextualization perspective, the regular features of situated meaning variation exhibited by verbs are revealed in this paper through the observation of verbal semantic dependency and density. Three essential findings are presented as follows: 1) the principle of word meaning resonance is the working mechanism and impetus for meaning transformation of verbs in contexts; 2) verbal semantic content with their definition being default is dependent on nouns. Contextual verbs strive to be compatible with nouns in meaning construction, which displays features of the revolution ­like movement by a star around the sun; 3) the degree of semantic density is correlated inversely with the salience hierarchy of revolution-­like features.

Keywords: verbal situated meaning variation; word meaning resonance; revolution-like type; semantic dependency; semantic density

A Comparative Corpus-based Study of Lexical Bundles in Journal Articles Written by Chinese and International Science Scholars
LOU Baocui, WANG Mimi
(Faculty of International Studies, Henan Normal University, Xinxiang 453007, China)
Abstract: By adopting the corpus­-based approach, this study compares the structural types and functional categories of four­-word lexical bundles in journal articles written by Chinese and international science scholars. The results show that, compared with international scholars, Chinese scholars useless four-­word lexical bundles; structurally, Chinese scholars use more VP-­based bundles, less PP­-based and NP-­based bundles; functionally, Chinese scholars overuse the structural bundles, underuse the framing, description and stance bundles, and employ a limited variety of bundles. It has also been found that Chinese and international scholars use lexical bundles differently in expressing the same textual function. The results of this study can be used for reference in academic writing and teaching.

Emotion Regulation in College English Teachers’ Professional Development: Goals and Strategies

XU Jinfen

(School of Foreign Languages, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430074, China)

Abstract: Teaching is an emotional practice, involving a lot of emotional experiences. However, for a long time, the professional development of College English teachers has paid more attention to teachers’ professional knowledge and skills, ignoring the impact of teachers’ emotions and emotion regulation on teaching. This paper first explains the important role of teachers’ emotion regulation in foreign language teaching by introducing emotion and its related research, then discusses the emotion regulation goals from three aspects: instrumental and hedonic goals, intrinsic and extrinsic goals, goals of decreasing and increasing emotions, and finally, based on Gross’s process model of emotion regulation, introduces the five emotion regulation strategies, i.e. situation selection, situation modification, attentional deployment, cognitive change and response modulation.

学习成为教学研究者:英语教师身份认同变化个案的复杂动态系统分析

杜小双 张莲

(北京外国语大学 英语学院, 北京 100089)

【摘要】本文报告一项英语教师建构教学研究者身份认同的过程和变化案例研究,聚焦变化过程的复杂动态性。结果表明:1)案例教师研究者身份认同变化表现在其自我形象、自我效能感、工作动机、工作投入、工作满意度、任务感知六个方面出现波动,体现了身份认同变化的混沌性和非线性特征;2)部分教师学习活动成为触发变化的典型事件,以“扰动”的方式颠覆教师原有认知、重构教师的知识和经验;3)“扰动”并非必然引起身份认同的良性变化,而是触发教师身份认同的波动起伏,这种非决定性的因果关系体现了教师身份发展的复杂动态性。

Becoming a Teaching Researcher: A CDST Case Study of EFL Teachers’ Indentity Change

DU Xiaoshuang, ZHANG Lian

(School of English and International Studies, Beijing Foreign Studies University, Beijing 100089, China)

Abstract: This paper reports a case study of how an English teacher constructed her identity as a teaching researcher through learning to do an action research project. The study focuses on the complexity and dynamics of the constructing process. Results show that in the first place the participant teacher’s change of identity as a researcher was substantiated in her self­-image, self-­efficacy, job commitment, satisfaction and perceptions of work, indicating the chaotic and non-linear nature of identity change. Secondly, some teacher learning activities served as typical events to perturbate the teacher’s cognition and reconstruct her knowledge and experience. Thirdly, perturbations did not necessarily lead to positive change of the teacher’s identity; rather, they only caused the fluctuations of her identity, rendering the complexity and dynamics of teacher identity development.

重返“无返之门”——《月满月更之时》中的奴隶制、“居间性”和家族谱系

綦亮

(苏州科技大学 外国语学院, 江苏 苏州 215009)

【摘要】保罗·吉尔罗伊基于奴隶制记忆、从“跨民族和文化间性”视角构筑的“黑色大西洋”框架为解读讲述奴隶制和黑人流散的文学作品提供了重要切入点。但这方面的研究主要集中在英美两国黑人文学,缺少对其他国别和区域黑人文学的关注。加拿大著名黑人作家迪翁·布兰德的小说《月满月更之时》对“黑色大西洋”话语有明显介入。该作一方面以想象来回溯奴隶制历史,塑造挑战边界、处于居间状态的人物形象,呼应了吉尔罗伊的学术思想,另一方面通过构建彰显女性旅行经验和女性代际维系的家族谱系,描摹出黑人流散的心理轨迹和精神状态,从女性视角对“黑色大西洋”进行了再阐释。

A Return to "The Door of No Return": Slavery, In-­betweenness and Genealogy in At the Full and Change of the Moon

QI Liang

(School of Foreign Studies, Suzhou University of Science and Technology, Suzhou 215009, China)

Abstract: Based on the memory of slavery and a “transnational and intercultural perspective”, Gilroy’s notion of “the Black Atlantic” offers a frame of reference for the study of literary works concerning the history of slavery and the Black Diaspora. However, studies in this regard have almost exclusively focused on black writers from Britain and America. There is an overt correlation between “the Black Atlantic” discourse and At the Full and Change of the Moon, a novel written by the renowned black Canadian writer Dionne Brand. The novel both dovetails with Gilroy’s theory by imagining the history of slavery and portraying characters who challenge borders and occupy in­-between space, and reinterprets it by mapping the psychological trajectory and spiritual guidance of the Black Diaspora through a genealogy that highlights women’s travelling experience and generational bond.
Keywords: Dionne Brand; the Black Atlantic; slavery; genealogy; Black Diaspora

论“疯癫亚当”三部曲中的食物生态书写

唐建南

(中国石油大学 外国语学院, 北京 102200)

【摘要】加拿大女作家玛格丽特·阿特伍德在“疯癫亚当”三部曲中的食物生态书写不仅剖析了人类世的食物危机,也想象了对抗生态末日的乌托邦饮食体系。人类世的诸多问题导致食物严重匮乏,但是跨国资本主义消费体系中的类食物、转基因食品以及快餐文化却加剧了生存危机。鉴于此,阿特伍德设想了两种互为补充的乌托邦饮食实验:慢食实践与素食主义。前者宣扬回归自耕自食传统,后者加强人类与非人类自然之间的亲密联系,但是后人类时代的草食实践作为极端的素食主义掩盖了灭绝人类的血腥。三部曲中的食物生态书写表明人类有必要采取多种方式塑造可持续的韧性食物体系。

An Ecocritical Study of the Food Writing in the MaddAddam Trilogy

TANG Jiannan

(School of Foreign Languages, China University of Petroleum, Beijing 102200, China)

Abstract: In Margaret Atwood’s MaddAddam Triology, the writer exposes the food crisis in the Anthropocene and imagines a new food system in her utopian world. The multiple problems result in the overwhelming shortage of food. However, the ersatz food, GMOs, and the fast food supported by the global capitalist consumerist culture lead to the worsening of the ecological crisis. To counteract this dystopian tendency, Atwood puts forward two complementary food practices: slow food and vegetarian activism. The former encourages people to adopt the self­-sufficient lifestyle and the latter promotes the kinship between human and nonhuman nature. However, grass-­eating, as an extreme form of vegetarianism, conceals the cruelty of exterminating humanity. The ecological dimension of food writing in the trilogy shows the necessity of building a sustainable resilient food system in multiple ways.

The Post-­natural Writing in the New Weird Fiction Annihilation

ZHANG Luning,  HAN Qiqun

(School of Foreign Studies, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210037, China)

Abstract: American southern writer Jeff VanderMeer made vigorous responses to the global and regional environmental crisis in his New Weird fictions, which are permeated with distinctive features of post­-natural writing. This paper, through close reading of VanderMeer’s Annihilation, explores the post-­natural narrative mechanics in this novel from two aspects, respectively the unique post-­natural surroundings and the human annihilation in the post­-natural world. By doing so, it is to find out the eco­value of the fiction and the writer’s understanding of environmental ethics. VanderMeer, dubbed as the “weird Thoreau” in American southern eco­literary circle, has rooted his work in the progressively alarming environmental crisis in the South, and has enriched the narrative strategies of environmental crisis in American southern literature by his post­-natural writing.
Keywords: Jeff VanderMeer; New Weird; Annihilation; post-­natural writing; American southern eco-­literature

翻译研究“PBL翻译教学研究”专题

主持人按语:李德超

1972年,当时任教于荷兰阿姆斯特丹的美裔学者James S. Holmes发表《翻译研究名与实》(The name and nature of translation studies)一文。该文详细地勾勒了对翻译这门学科的名称、应所涵盖研究内容的设想和目的,认为学科应由纯翻译研究及应用翻译研究这两部分组成。这篇文章的面世,对当时仍受主观性、规定性研究和经验总结左右的译学界而言,无疑注入一股清流,为翻译研究在上个世纪80年代初期逐渐成为一门正式的学科,奠定了坚实的理论基础。大约50年后的今天,Holmes所规划的学科蓝图中的许多领域(尤其是在理论研究及描写研究方面)取得了长足的进步。相比之下,隶属于应用研究领域之下的译员培训——亦即翻译教学研究方面,进展却仍然较为缓慢,个人经验总结和翻译教学技巧的描述至目前为止仍然占相当比重。在某种程度上,这些教学观察和体会对翻译的教与学确有启示作用,但因其往往带有主观性、片面性,无法上升到具有一定普适性的理论高度。另外,由于缺乏源自教育学或教育心理学坚实的教学理论或学习理论作为基础,这些个人的教学行为到底在多大程度上对翻译教学以至于整个二语习得理论有何贡献,仍然值得商榷。 

针对翻译教学研究进展缓慢的局面,我们觉得一个可行的方案就是参考在其它专业领域运用较为成熟并证明行之有效的教学理念和方法,将其有机移植至翻译教学研究领域之中,而基于问题学习(problem-­based learning,简称PBL)即是一种可借鉴用于翻译课堂的教学模式。PBL由加拿大麦克马斯特大学健康科学学院教授Howard Barrows和Robyn Tamblyn在上个世纪60年代所倡导,最早是运用真实的病例于课堂之上,以培训医科生获得像正式医生那种做出诊断时的思维过程。该方法主要有以下几个重要的特点:一是学生自主学习,教师只提供类似脚手架(scaffolding)的辅助作用;二是学习中所用的问题除了需是现今社会中所出现的真实、重要问题之外,还需是弱构型(ill­structured),即问题迷惑性大,没有明确直接的解决方法;三是学习必须是要紧密结合其它相关学科的知识,而非靠自己本学科的单一知识来解决问题;四是高度注重学习过程中的学生之间的合作过程;五是考核必须围绕学生在解决问题上取得的进度来进行;六是PBL不能只当作课程的一种教学方法使用,而应该是作为一种教育理念,贯穿至整个课程设计的方方面面,包括教学环境的设置、PBL的具体执行和之后评估等等。

时至今日,PBL因其实用性和有效性而越来越多地运用于医疗以外的教学领域,包括商业、建筑、法律等等。同时,该方法也走出高等教育,开始在中小学教育启用,并取得了丰硕的成果。相比之下,PBL用于翻译教学方面却仍然较为鲜见。为此,《山东外语教学》本期推出“PBL翻译教学研究”专栏,包括三篇论文,聚焦于PBL在中国翻译教学中的应用遇到的挑战与对策、PBL在计算机辅助翻译(CAT)教学中的应用和PBL的自我导向学习(SDL)教学方法在翻译硕士专业学位(MTI)“文类翻译通论”课程的运用,从宏观课程建设及微观个案分析角度探讨了PBL译员培训的前景、操作方法及其利弊。希望有志于此的同行能管中窥豹,从中得到一定的启发,共同促进PBL翻译教学研究的发展。

PBL在翻译教学中的应用:挑战与对策

李德超

(香港理工大学 中文及双语学系, 中国香港)

【摘要】Problem-­based learning(简称PBL)是一种基于问题的学习理念,主张用现实中的真实问题来驱动学习。在教学中应用PBL需满足以下三个条件:构建“以学生为中心”的教学主张,提升学生自主和合作学习的效率,提供学习所用的外部资源。为把PBL应用于翻译课堂,我们通过问卷调查法,对内地和香港多所高校翻译课堂教学的情况进行了初步调查,结果显示目前翻译课堂教学普遍存在以下问题:(1)教师对学生自主学习能力的评价较低,信心不足,课外资源使用机会较少;(2)小组合作机会不多,而问题较多,课堂管理难度较大;(3)真实的翻译问题使用频率较低。因此,为有效实施PBL翻译教学,教师要加强对学生自主学习的指导,学习管理小组合作的技巧,提高学生的学习效率;教师也要学习PBL翻译教学理念,制定教学细则,帮助学生成为学习的中心;教师还要积极参加翻译实践,熟悉真实的翻译问题,并将之用于课堂教学。

Applying Problem­-based Learning toTranslation Classrooms: Challenges and Solutions

LI Dechao

(Department of Chinese and Bilingual Studies, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China)

Abstract: Problem-­based learning (PBL) is an educational philosophy which advocates that learning should be driven by authentic problems. The application of PBL to translation classrooms should meet the following criteria, including the facilitation of student-­centered learning, the promotion of students’ learning efficiency and the provision of external resources for such learning. To understand the challenges of applying PBL to translation teaching in Chinese mainland and Hong Kong, we have conducted a large scale questionnaire survey about the status quo of teaching and learning of translation in the universities in these areas. Survey results have identified three existing issues in the current translation classrooms: (1) translation teachers do not have enough confidence in students’ ability for conducting self­-directed learning by themselves due to a shortage of external resources; (2)opportunities for students’ cooperative learning are insufficient because teachers find it difficult to manage the classroom effectively with this mode of learning; (3) authentic translation problems are not frequently adopted in translation classes. To apply PBL to translation classroom effectively in these areas, it is suggested that translation teachers should facilitate students’ self­-directed learning and master the skills for managing cooperative learning in the classroom in order to promote the efficiency of learning. In addition, translation teachers are also advised to familiarize themselves with the philosophy of PBL used in the context of translation and prepare teaching guidelines to help establish student­-centered learning environment in the classroom. Translation teachers are also reminded to actively engage in real-life translation practices to know more about authentic translation problems which can be adopted in their problem­-based translation teaching and learning.

CAT环境下PBL翻译教学模式应用个案研究

刘立香

(集美大学 外国语学院, 福建 厦门 361021)

【摘要】PBL是基于问题的学习理念,主张用真实而复杂的问题驱动学生学习,让学生通过自主学习和合作学习的方式,在教师支架的辅助下,探索出解决问题的方案,形成解决问题的策略和能力,并逐步提升其批判思维、独立判断、人际交往和创新思维等全人能力。计算机辅助翻译(CAT)技术为PBL理念在翻译教学中的实践提供了平台,我们在CAT环境中应用了PBL翻译教学模式,研究显示:(1)CAT支持下的PBL翻译教学模式具有独特的资源优势;(2)不同层次的学生在真实翻译问题的驱动下各有所获,可发展出解决真实问题的策略和方法;(3)学生对翻译真实问题的认识程度直接影响译文质量。问题认识越清晰,译文质量越高,反之亦然。研究启示,为了更好地在CAT环境下应用PBL翻译教学模式,需要教师在PBL前、中、后各个阶段进行引导,发挥问题支架、方案支架、资源支架的作用。

Applying Problem­-based Learning to CAT Course: A Case Study

LIU Lixiang

(School of Foreign Languages, Jimei University, Xiamen, 361021, China)

Abstract: Problem-­based learning (PBL) advocates that learning is driven by aproblem. Under the guidance of facilitators, the authentic and complex problems may promote students’ self­-directed learning and collaborative learning in the search of solutions for the defined problems, which may foster students’ critical thinking, independent judgments, communication and creation. CAT provides a platform for the practice of PBL translation teaching. In the application of PBL to the CAT environment, the findings are as follows: (1) CAT provides an ideal platform for the practice of PBL. (2) Driven by authentic translation problems, students at different levels could make progress in their own speed and develop strategies to tackle authentic translation problems. (3) Students’ translation quality is directly related to their recognition of translation problems. The more clearly they know the problems, the better their translation quality would be, and vice versa. From the case study, we should realize the importance of the scaffolding role of the teacher in the application of PBL. Specifically, the teacher should function as a scaffold to guide students in the recognition of problems, the solution of problems and the use of external resources.

Keywords: educational philosophy of PBL; CAT tools; translation pedagogy
