Discipline started in the method - Reading Huang Zhonglian waiting "Translation Methodology"
"We must first of its profits", methods of practice and theoretical research is extremely important. "Translation Methodology" (the "method") to a new view of the main line of translation, unifying methodology of translation practice and translation research methodology, practice and theory of translation provides an effective method of instruction.
"Method" at the outset, that Outlook decided to translate translation methodology to determine the choice of translation practices. According to the similarity with the original translation, the translation can be divided into a pair of new areas: the whole translation and translation variation. Mimicking the whole translation requirements, change request translation effects; full translation of the essence as the "transformation" and change the essence of translation in the "change." Strive to complete the whole translation to convey the original content, both original form; change the original translation of the contents is intended to uptake and transform the original form. All information conversion core translation, the content should be transferred, the form must change; change translation axis for the uptake, content to be learned, the form should be modified. All may use literal translation + free translation strategy to "turn" the maximum obtained with the original translation, "like"; change the availability of alternative translation + (Full Translation) strategy to "change" the greatest readers seek to meet the demand for translation. Full Translation request "transformation" includes translation, increased translation, by translation, translation, for translation, translation points, seven joint translation method; each method and each into the system, such as by increasing translation can be divided into the syntax of the translation, by translation logic, rhetoric by translation, the translation layer can also refine the techniques to directly guide the specific practice of translation. Translation variation seeking "change" means, including increasing, reducing, editing, above, shrinkage, and, change, imitation, embodied in the twelve kinds of Translation Approach: Excerpt, compile and Translation, reduced translation, review, review, translation assessment, written translation, Translation by, illustrates translation, reference translation, replication; each method can also be self-contained, such as the summary translation, including translation of Abstract words, putting sentences in translation, translation of Abstract section and so on. In short, good at conversion, clever in the intake, in order to "turn" to seek "change" as a criterion to select strategies, the use of skills, and strive to mimicking, in order to feature what is called Translation and Translation Methodology uniform translation practice, it is also translated charm.
Translation pay attention to methods, techniques, much favored by the translator. Translation of the full description of the phenomenon, in-depth summary of the initial establishment of a "full translation + change translation" Translation system Translation begins. Translation method is more needed, so "method" that translation studies to observe the full, full description, explain fully, pointing to the phenomenon of translation studies, research and principles of law, from the start to explore the phenomenon of principle, layer by layer deepening theoretical generalization. Researchers can point cut, wire extension, surface-type promotion, style deep, in the observation of the phenomenon can be captured in the interpretation of the new theoretical gain, interdisciplinary research along the way to the ladder, and gradually establish the subject of translation system.
The creation of disciplines required to start from the phenomena, summarized in the fact that, in theory, hypothesis, further systematic and constitutes a discipline. Touch translate the fact that new phenomenon, the separation of classes, the formation of the whole translation and translation variation strategic areas, this division itself represents a new Translation. Complementarity between the two side by side, while self-contained, its systematic method of formation of seven and twelve full translation Translation Approach to the core of the whole translation + change translated into a preliminary framework for establishing a scientific theory of translation. Independently variable translation and research for the whole translation provides a new point of reference, the old and new theories to each other to promote and deepen the understanding of translation. Both complement each other, constitute the category system of translation theory, to integrate, we can establish a more complete theoretical expression system. The theory arises from the fact that application of theory, and operable. Further application of abstract theory, to the general theory. Theory can be self-contained, but also in big theoretical system to break the self-sufficiency, and integration of relevant content, and further systematic form of scientific theory. Systematic scientific theory, constitute discipline, related disciplines systematic, constitute the science.
Based on the method, summed up the law, theory creation, subject building, which was subject to the general path method. Subject to approach as a starting point, the method is the driving force of discipline, the former refers to the discipline from the practice of law, which refers to the discipline required to promote the study of law. By the "method" shows the two methods side by side for mutual benefit and guide human activities, and make it standardized, programmable, logic, and then to make the translation of research more successful.
