課程概述 |
Course Description
本課程將會劃分成幾個主題來進行。在導論的部分，課程會先聚焦在史地翻譯譯者常常會遭遇的問題，例如如何翻譯人名與地名，還有如何翻譯引述自古代史地典籍的文字？翻譯過程中必須要注意的政治、意識形態要素為何？接著每週分別介紹一本不同主題的史地類書籍（或文章）與其中文譯本。本課程選擇進行討論的書，有些是由專業史家所撰寫，例如魏斐德（Frederic Wakeman Jr.，《大清帝國的衰亡》）、史景遷（Jonathan Spence，《追尋現代中國》）與卜正民（Timothy Brook，《掙扎的帝國：氣候、經濟、社會與探源南海的元明史》與《明代的社會與國家》）；其餘書籍則都是以世界史地或中國／臺灣史地為主題。此外，幾名專業譯者將會受邀前來班上進行演講，討論他們的翻譯作品，每週同學們也都必須進行翻譯練習並討論譯文。
This course will be conducted on the basis of several topics. In the introductory classes, the instructor will focus on explaining some of the technical problems regularly encountered in the process of translating historico-geographic texts: for example, how to translate the names of people and places? How to translate texts quoted from ancient and pre-modern historico-geographic classics or documents? What are the political and ideological factors at work in the process of translation? Next, every week we will discuss one book or article (both the original and translated texts), which contains different issues about history and geography. Some of the books have been written by professional historians, such as Frederic Wakeman Jr. (Fall of Imperial China), Jonathan Spence (The Search for Modern China), and Timothy Brook (The Chinese State in Ming Society and The Troubled Empire), while others are either about world history and geography, or historico-geographic books focusing on China or Taiwan. Professional translators will be invited to deliver talks about their works, and each week the students will be given a certain passage in one book to practice translation and discussion their translated texts. |

課程目標 |
這是一門以練習為基礎的史地翻譯訓練課程，目標在為修課學生累積必要的史地專有名詞知識與翻譯技巧，為未來進行實際的史地翻譯工作奠立基礎。同學們應該要學會掌握各種不同翻譯策略，進而成為能夠獨立作業的譯者。史地翻譯是一種需要高度專業知識的翻譯領域，同學們常常必須透過資料研究來解決翻譯問題。最後，這個課程讓同學們有機會閱讀與分析其他課程參與者的翻譯作品，藉此汲取他人的長處，改正自己在翻譯上的缺點與盲點。
This is a practice-based course designed to train historico-geographic translators, aiming at familiarize students with basic historico-geographic terms and translation skills. Students are required to grasp different translation strategies and develop the ability to work alone, in the process of solving possible translation problems. historico-geographic translation is a highly professional translation area, so the proper attitude of study and research is a must for student translators. The course will adopt the teaching method of peer-review, in order to make students see their own mistakes and learn from their translation partners. |
