Nowdays people pay much more attentionto the research on fictional translation from various aspects; however it is far from enoughRcccption Acsthctics, which arose in the 1960s, provides a new standing point for thefictional translation and 1i terary criticismUnder the great influence of Hermeneutics and Phenomenology, Hans Robert Jaussand Wolfgang Iser who are the main representatives of Constance school in fcdcralistGermany put forward Reception Aesthetics around the middle 1960s. Thetheory holds thatbefore the reading process every reader has certain horizon of expectations towards thetext. Any literature text is full of indeterminacies and vacancies.The reading process is infact the course of fusi on bet ween the horizon of expec tations and the text, it is also thecourse that the readers fi 11 in the blanks and concretize theuncertainties. Only by doing socan a real intact literary work be produced. Consequently the focus of the literary researchis shifted from “SL-text centeredn and author-centered" to the readers and the readingactivities, which is absolutely the milestone in the long river of the aesthetic developmentThis thesis first describes the definition and research history of the fictionaltranslation, secondly it gives an introduction of Reception Aesthetics, including its origin,development and main concepts, then it centers on the literary achicvcment that Eilccnof The GoldenCangue, which in all lay the foundation for the latter part of the thesis. In the main bodypart, the concepts uhorizon of expectationsv and ^indeterminacy of text and vacancy ofmeaning” are applied to ancilyze the English version of The Golden Cangue from thecul tural and 1 inguistic aspects. The last part is the conclusion which mainly focuses on theguidance of Reception Aesthetics on the fictional translation and literary criticismKey Words: Fictional Translation, Reception Aesthetics, The GoldenCangue,Translation Strategyiii Table of ContentsAcknowlcdgcmcnts i摘要.iiABSTRACT iiiCHAPTER ONE 1NTRODUCT1ON14.2 RESEARCH BACKGROUND OF FICTION 11. 1. 1 Definition of Fiction. 11. 2 Previous Study on Fictional Translation2OBJECTIVE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PRESENT STUDY・ 3STRUCTURE OF THE THESIS4CHAPTER TWO RECEPTION AESTHETICS 51 OVERVIEW OF RECEPTION AESTHET1CS52. 1. 1 FORMING BACKGROUNDS2.2 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JAUSS AND ISER. 72. 3 KEY TERMS OF RECEPTION AESTHETICS 82. 3. 1 Status of the Reader82.3.2 Horizon of Expectations・ 92.3.3 Indeterminacy and Vacancy of the Text. 10CHAPTER THREE EILEEN CHANG AND THE GOLDEN CANGUE. 123. 1 INTRODUCTION TO EILEEN CHANG. 123. 1. 1 As a Writer 12As a Translatorl3Reader-concerned Translation Principle 14ABOUT THE GOLDEN CANGUE・ 153.2. 1 Synopsis of The Golden Canguel53. 2. 2 Reason for Choosing The Golden Cangue 16CHAPTER FOUR TRANSLATION STRATEGIES OF THE GOLDENCANGUE VIEWED WITH RECEPTION AESTHETICS 174. 1 CULTURAL ELEMENTS AND TRANSLATION STRATEGIES・ 174.1.1 Translation Strategies in Treating Idioms. 174. 1. 2 Translation Strategics in Treating Allusions 21Translation Methods in Treating Images 234. 1. 4 Summary. 27LINGUISTIC ELEMENTS AND TRANSLATION STRATEG1ES27Translation of Address Term27Translation of Onomatopoeia. 30Translation of Color 324. 2. 4 Summary. 34CHAPTER FIVE CONCLUSION 36BI。
