Abstract

With the feminism rising in the twentieth Century, a similar status and experience of women and translation combines the logical translation and feminism. Pearl S. Buck, a very famous female writer, is frequently studied on her writings. However, her translations, an important part of her literary contributions, are rarely paid attention to. In view of this, the author takes Pearl S. Buck's translation, Shui Hu Zhuan, as a case study, attempting to explore the translator's subjectivity in translation from the perspective of the feminist translation theory. By analyzing Pearl S. Buck's translations, we can find that Pearl S. Buck displays great subjectivity in the selection of the text, especially the selection of her own words in the translated texts. In this thesis, the author makes a specific analysis of how Pearl S. Buck's female subjectivity is displayed, in order to provide a new platform for the study of translation.

Keywords: feminism; translator's subjectivity; Pearl S. Buck; Shui Hu Zhuan

摘要

随着女性主义在二十世纪兴起，女性与翻译的类似地位及遭遇,使得翻译与女性主义的结合顺理成章。作为一名著名的女性作家，赛珍珠的写作经常受到人们的关注。然而，作为她文学贡献重要组成部分的翻译却很少得到应有的重视。鉴于此，本文选取赛珍珠的英译本《水浒传》做一实例研究，试图探讨女性主义视角下译者主体性的凸显。通过赛珍珠的译文，我们可以发现她在译本，尤其是选词方面，体现了强烈的主体性。本文将探究赛珍珠女性主义视角的译者主体性的呈现，为翻译研究提供的一个新平台。
