姚斯(Jauss)和伊瑟尔(Iser)提出的接受美学引起了研究者对于翻译活动中译者与译文读者接受过程的广泛关注。其核心理念“文本空白与未定性”、“读者反应”以及“期待视野”强调文本的多元性和读者的能动作用,有效地阐释了译者在翻译过程中的主体性。由于中国古典诗歌具有召唤结构、意象性和模糊性等显著文体特点,本文拟从接受美学视角来解读译者主体性在古诗英译中的充分体现。 The reception aesthetics proposed by Jauss and Iser arouses researchers’ widespread concern about the acceptance process of translators and translators in translation activities. The core concepts of “Textual Blank and Undetermined”, “Reader Response” and “Expectations of Horizons” emphasize the diversity of texts and readers’ motivation and effectively explain the translator’s subjectivity in the process of translation . Because classical Chinese poetry has the distinctive stylistic features such as summon structure, imagery and fuzziness, this article intends to interpret the full manifestation of translator’s subjectivity in English translation of ancient poetry from the perspective of aesthetic acceptance.
