摘要
马礼逊(Robert Morrison)是基督新教第一位来华传教士,也是圣经汉译和儒经英译的先驱。本文考察马氏出版于1812年的《大学》译本,对译者的"直译"策略、汉学水准、以及译本引发的评论进行深入分析,以期揭示早期儒经英译的特色,并对翻译参与建构的英语世界中儒经与中国形象作出反思。
Robert Morrison, the first Protestant missionary to China, was a pioneer translator who initiated both the Chinese translation of the Bible and the English translation of Confucian Classics. This paper revisits his 1812 version of the Daxue in terms of its deployment of＂literal＂ translation strategy, its sinological accomplishment, and the critical responses it incurred. This is followed by some reflections on the role of translation in constructing the images of China and Confucianism in the colonial era.
