“文化自覺”的翻譯觀與《道德經》中“有無”的翻譯——以安樂哲、郝大維《道德經》英譯為例
Roger Ames & Hall David’s English Translation of“You” (有) and“Wu” (無) from the Perspective of Cultural Awareness
摘要:
“有”和“無”是一對重要的哲學概念。如何理解這一對概念以及它們與“道”的關系,是解讀《道德經》的關鍵。安樂哲和郝大維的《道德經》英譯專門討論了這一對概念,并提出了“無為”等一系列以“無”與其他名詞構成的詞組串,以此來強調“無”的思想在《道德經》中的重要地位,表明了譯者們與西方分析哲學的分裂以及與過程哲學的貼近,且考慮了翻譯的創新功能,是具有“文化自覺”意識的英譯。
關鍵詞:
《道德經》;“有”﹔“無”﹔文化自覺
