从关联理论视角看软新闻英汉翻译

论文摘要

软新闻注重以文学手法报道新闻,给人以更大的美感和启迪。优秀的英语软新闻译作,能够让中国民众了解外国风土人情,增进友谊与交流。软新闻的汉译更加灵活,注重受众期待,通过激发共鸣达到最佳传播效果,诸如编译等看似不合“规范”的译法是符合软新闻特点和新闻规律的必不可少的翻译策略和手段。根据Sperber和Wilson提出的关联理论,翻译作为一种交际形式,是根据动态语境做出的动态推理,而推理的依据就是关联性。本文通过软新闻译例分析,在关联理论框架内试图对软新闻的汉译予以诠释,验证了关联翻译理论对软新闻汉译的解释力和适用性,说明软新闻翻译的原则之一就是使目的语受众产生最大语境效果,达到最佳关联,从而取得最佳传播效果。
