摘要
《诗经》为中国五经之首,千年传诵,也是深受英国读者喜爱的经典之作。1871年,理雅各《诗经》全译本在英国发行,开启了它在英国经典化的历程。在《诗经》经典化的过程中,控制文学系统的专业人士和赞助人为《诗经》在英国的翻译和传播提供了有利的内外部条件,二者合力促成了《诗经》在英国的经典化。译者作为专业人士,在不同时期对《诗经》的翻译是《诗经》在英国传播和接受的前提,是《诗经》在英国经典化的基础环节和基本路径之一。掌握话语权的评论家对原作和译作的正面评论对《诗经》在英国的翻译和传播起到催化作用,成为《诗经》经典化的舆论向导。作为赞助人代表的出版商,通过不断地出版不同版本的《诗经》译本,成为《诗经》经典化的重要渠道。赞助人借助教育机构中教师对《诗经》的讲授以及课程设置等,促进了在校学生对《诗经》的阅读和理解,是《诗经》经典化的快速通道。
Shijing not only ranks first in five Chinese Classics but also has become a classic in Britain favored by British readers. Its canonization in Britain was initiated by the publication of James Legge's English version of Shijing in 1871. The canonization is attributed to professionals and patronage controlling within and outside the literary system respectively. They both provide favorable internal and external conditions for Shijing's translation and transmission in Britain and work together to canonize this classic. Translators,as professionals,lay a good foundation for its classicization by offering successive excellent versions. Their work is the prerequisite of Shijing's transmission and acceptance in Britain. Reviewers and critics who manipulate the discourse in this system accelerate the canonization by making positive comments and guiding the public opinion favorable to its canonization. Publishers as the most important representatives of patronage contribute to a necessary channel to Shijing's canonization in Britain by continuously publishing different English versions in the long course. Patronage serves as an accelerator of Shijing's canonization with the aid of teachers who embrace Shijing in curricular set-up and give lectures on Shijing in higher educational establishment,which greatly promotes students' reading and understanding of this classic.
