内容摘要

戏剧是一种以表演为目的的文学艺术形式。它可以反映不同国家的文化,历史以及宗教等方面的特点。中国戏剧在漫长的发展过程中形成了自己独特的风格,堪称中华文学之瑰宝。对于译者来说,如何将中国戏剧中的文化美以及语言美传达给目的语读者应当成为重中之重。然而,纵观中外文学史,戏剧翻译这一领域一直鲜有涉及。究其原因,可以归结为戏剧的两重性:文学性和舞台表演性。这一两重性决定了唯有通过舞台表演,戏剧的内涵方能得以淋漓尽致的表达,这与传统的翻译大相径庭。正如不同的文学体裁需要采取不同的翻译策略,戏剧翻译这一独特的文体需要译者在翻译过程中,充分考虑其文学性和舞台艺术性,采取适当的翻译策略。本文旨在探讨基于功能对等理论,戏剧翻译中的文化因素如何传递。鉴于此,文章分析了中国戏剧《西厢记》的两个英译本,即中国学者许渊冲的Romance of The Western Bower和西方翻译家Stephen West和Wilt L. Idema的The Story of The West Wing。
