论双语翻译的认知心理研究

摘　要：长期以来，翻译理论和翻译研究者大都将兴趣集中在对翻译产品（译品或译作）的描写、解释和争论上，而对译品的产生过程（即翻译的心理过程）的研究尚处在对国外成果的引进和介绍阶段。相关成果颇少，批评性的研究成果更是凤毛麟角。本文通过对“翻译过程模式”及其理论的七点修正和对“主体”研究的再思考，旨在说明：1）翻译过程的实质是心理的而非物质的； 2）译品是由过程实现的，译者只有理解过程才有望改进翻译技巧，提高译作水平；3）贝尔的翻译心理模式并非真理，对其进行再认识、再反思将有益于学术心理的不断创新和翻译心理科学的早日建立。
 

Bell's Process Model and the Cognitive Study of Translation
 by Liu Shaolong (Guangdong University of Foreign Studies)
 

Abstract: Most researchers of translation in China have been so preoccupied with describing and interpreting Bell's process theory of translation that hardly any effort has been made to subject it to a systematic examination and a critical assessment. Taking this problem into account, the author of this paper undertakes to rethink Bell's process model and comes up with three conclusions: 1) translating is by nature a complex cognitive process; 2) since target texts result from such a process, its understanding holds the key to improving translation; and 3) Bell's psychological model of translation is necessarily fallible, and a critical reexamination of the model would help to deepen our understanding of the psychology of translation.
