摘要中国是诗的国度,中国的古典诗词是中华传统文化中一颗璀璨的明珠,世界人民都应当有机会感受到中国古典诗歌的独特魅力。汉诗英译是向全世界介绍中国诗歌文化的一条重要途径,优秀的英译诗词作品,会为中国的诗歌文化添光溢彩。总体看来,现有的英译诗词并非件件都是精品,并且中国译界关于诗歌英译的理论并不系统。在众多的翻译理论中,目前较为流行的就是许渊冲老先生提出的关于诗歌翻译的“三美论”原则。许渊冲先生在诗歌翻译理论和实践方面的成就为中国古诗英译的发展做出了巨大贡献。

本文将以中唐时期著名诗人白居易的《琵琶行》为案例,从“三美论”角度分析《琵琶行》源于许渊冲和杨宪益的两个英译本,比较两个译本的优与劣,并探讨许渊冲 “三美论”在诗歌翻译中的适用性。

1。 Introduction 

Traditional Chinese culture is beginning to capture the attention of the world。 At the same time, the government has taken the strategy of becoming a culture-output country。 As classical Chinese poetry has composed an important part of traditional Chinese culture, there’s a large demand of excellent translations of classical Chinese poetry。 However, there exists more bad works than good ones and little scattered theories。 It was in late 16th century that the translation of Chinese poetry appeared in the West。 With the further development of poetic translation, more and more opinions have been proposed to promote the translation of Chinese poems。 On the basis of the previous theorists’ achievements and his own practical experience, Xu Yuanchong proposes the theory of Three-Beauty Principle, which has three components, the beauty of sense, the beauty of sound and the beauty of form。 This theory is a breakthrough in the theories and practice of the translation of classical Chinese poetry。 论文网
