文化翻译学视阈下的仿词翻译——以《红楼梦》为例

仿词,作为一种常见的修辞手法,是仿拟的一种,具有丰富的文化蕴涵,在口语语体中颇受欢迎。《红楼梦》是中国古典文化的集大成者,称得上是中国古典小说的巅峰之作,其中人物对话用词考究,寓意深远。历年来,学者对于《红楼梦》中语言的研究数不胜数,对其中仿词的研究亦是格外关注。然而,从文化翻译学的角度考察《红楼梦》中的仿词翻译研究的却颇为罕见。通过对《红楼梦》霍译本和杨译本中人物对话的具体实例进行分析比较,从文化翻译学角度探讨仿词的翻译方法与策略,揭示仿词翻译中的文化内涵。     

生态翻译学视域下《红楼梦》茶文化译写研究——以杨译本和霍译本为例

依据茶文化的广义定义,对《红楼梦》中的茶文化进行四个层次分类,并按此分类梳理《红楼梦》杨、霍两译本中的茶文化译写案例。从生态翻译学语言、文化和交际三维度解读两个译本中的茶文化案例译写,发现两个译本茶文化译写差异之处主要来源于译者对译事的“适应”与“选择”。两个英文译本从译者和翻译策略角度为生态翻译学研究提供了具体的茶文化译写案例,凸显了生态翻译学“译者中心”的翻译行为理念,为今后茶文化译写提供启示。     

国际组织中的混合成员及其法律地位研究

国际组织中的各类成员及其在组织中的法律地位是国际组织法上的基本问题之一。政府间的国际组织,其成员主要是国家,但也包含其他形态各异的成员主体。这些其他成员主体可以总括为国际组织中的"混合成员"。对国际组织中的混合成员及其在组织中法律地位的研究、界定,有助于更好地认识和发挥国际组织在国际社会中的作用。中国港澳台地区作为国际组织中混合成员的一类,通过研究其参与的政府间国际组织,可为其更好地参与政府间国际组织提供法理依据。     

FIGURES OF HOPE AND THE FILMIC IMAGINARY OF JIANGHU IN CONTEMPORARY HONG KONG CINEMA

Through an extensive allegorical reading of films, this paper attempts to capture a certain cultural form of imagination in Hong Kong during the transitional period leading up to the historical handover of power in 1997. Dwelling on the world of signification conjured up through what I call the jianghu filmic imaginary,the analysis focuses on the ideological and utopian impulses registered in relation to a whole emotional complex of anxiety, bewilderment and despair in the works of some highly creative local filmmakers of the genre: Ching Siu-Tong, Ann Hui, Tsui Hark and Wong KarWai. The study draws theoretically from Castoriadis's notion of the social imaginary and Bloch's aesthetics of hope, to focus on the textual and contextual re-constructions of a number of very unconventional martial arts swordplay (wuxia) films made in Hong Kong in the last two decades: namely, Tsui's Butterfly Murders (1979), Hui's Romance of Book and Sword (1987), Ching/Tsui's Swordsman II (1992), and Wong's Ashes of Time (1994). By identifying the ideological and affective moments in the filmic imaginary,I want to trace what has been left in a ruined culture for utopian longings, and point to the presence/absence of ‘hope’ as the cultural imagination for an unknown and unknowable future (beyond 1997). It is my contention that an understanding of that peculiar form of popular imaginary at the unusual juncture of Hong Kong's history can begin with a critical attempt to cope with this subtle practice of hope, so as to recognize (or reject) it as mediation in the process of our collective cultural crisis, anticipation and identification.     

Demise of the Developmental State? Implications for Social Policy Development in Hong Kong

This paper argues that Hong Kong is now at the crossroads of its journey towards social policy development. While economic development still seems to be the unwavering objective of the Hong Kong government, the demand for democracy and social development can no longer be ignored because of a strong civil society fostered by economic success. The current state of affairs provides a window of opportunity for the Hong Kong government to strengthen its legitimacy through the development of social policy and to promote social harmony through inclusivity in social welfare. The findings from the present empirical survey conducted by the Hong Kong Institute of Asia‐Pacific Studies (HKIAPS) in 2010 demonstrate that Hong Kong people identified social harmony as the main direction for social development, closely followed by economic development, and democracy and freedom. Respondents who chose social harmony as the main goal of social development were more likely to take a step back and find common ground when fighting for their own rights or the rights of society. This paper concludes that these findings reflect the crucial importance of taking social harmony into consideration in the social policy development process.     

论“港澳词语”以及“澳门特有词语”

香港与澳门两地的华语有着高度的共通性，它们的共同的词语被称之为“港澳词语”，其构成主要包括：港澳共同区域词语、港澳共同外语借词和港澳共同粤语词语。但是香港与澳门之间却有着各自完全不同的历史背景与文化源流，这就使得港澳之间存在着词语差异，这种差异可分为“香港分区特有词语”与“澳门分区特有词语”，其类别包括：两区不同的外语借词、两区不同的粤语词语。“港澳词语”是全球华语的重要组成部分，大陆普通话曾经吸取了不少“港台词语”，其中大部分是“港澳词语”。     

港台社会工作发展路径的比较分析

虽然港台社会工作的发展进程较为一致，但由于二者在历史背景、渊源及社会发展情况等方面存在差异，导致二者在发展路径上存在着“自上而下”与“自下而上”的分殊。大陆应注意两种路径的结合，发挥政府与社会工作界的各自优势，共同推进中国社会工作的进程。     

从韩翃诗歌中地名看大历诗风的繁富趋向

大历以后,唐王朝开始由极盛而走向衰败,使得这时期的诗风整体呈现出一种气骨顿衰的新趋势。但是,也并非所有的诗歌都是如此。比如韩翃的很多诗歌就具有浓厚的装饰风格,这使得他与大历十才子迥然不同,成为一位风格独特的诗人。笔者试从韩翃诗歌中所涉及的大量具有形象美的地名着手,来分析韩翃诗歌繁富的特点,从而进一步探讨大历诗风的繁富趋向形成的原因。     

Modernization of Power in Legal and Medical Discourses: The Birth of the (Male) Homosexual in Hong Kong and Its Aftermath

The removal of homosexuality from the list of mental disorders and the repeal of restrictive sexual laws deem that Foucault's argument on the discursive control of homosexuality requires refinement to take into consideration the continual modernization and improvement of power. This article examines the multilayered discursive terrain in Hong Kong where homosexuality is created, regulated, and contested in the contemporary era. With the popularization of human rights discourse, sexual dissidents are not simply treated as criminal or pathological; rather, legal and medical discourses have shifted to an increasing reliance on notions of risk to put mechanisms of social regulation in place.
