讲座题目: The Importance of Pragmatics in Translation
讲座时间:2019年10月28日(星期一)上午 10:00 –12:00
讲座地点:科技楼南楼109教室
讲座提要
The role of context remains underexplored in translation studies, which in the last two decades has focused on cultural elements from different perspectives (such as feminist or postcolonial). In this talk, I will discuss the role of pragmatics in translation as an alternative to the traditional and artificial dichotomy language/culture. Pragmatics was first discussed at some length in the late 1990s by authors like Eugene Nida. Although in the West Nida has been criticized (particularly in the US, e.g. Venuti, Gentzler), he was among the first to discuss the importance of context. I will discuss some of the tenets of pragmatics and their significance for translators using examples from various genres.
