【摘要】：At home in Hunan(《湖南是我家》)是一位美国人以回忆录形式写作的纪实小说,主要描写作者的父母这辈人,以传教士身份在1909年至1951年间的湖南,特别是常德,生活和工作的情形。除了文字记录以外,还有大量珍贵的历史照片。这对于湖南人,特别是常德人民来说,是第一本外国人写作的关于常德的书籍。它是常德人民了解当时历史和社会的一个客观的窗口,更是富有文学色彩的珍贵历史史料。因此将本书选择作为翻译实践研究的蓝本,既具有历史意义,又具有文学价值。本文首先交代了作者写作本翻译实践报告的意图,然后分析了本文的重要性及全文的写作结构。本文首先对翻译任务背景从原文作者及内容、原文本背景信息等方面做了交代。并对委托人的背景和要求进行了说明。接着作者对整个翻译实践的过程做了详细的描述。从译前所做的准备出发,以功能学派的理论作为支撑,作者还例举了译者所运用的翻译方法和技巧,如增译法、省略法、注释法等等。针对翻译过程中出现的种种问题,译者找出了诸如缺乏跨文化意识,缺少相关政治历史背景知识等问题的根源和解决办法。对于译后工作,作者与其翻译伙伴对译文进行了严格的互相校对等一些质量控制方法以确保翻译质量。最后,作者对翻译过程中出现的未解决问题做了归纳,并对从这次翻译实践中得到的经验教训进行了总结。这次翻译实践并不是一个终点,而是一个起点,它促使作者更加深入地去研究与之相关的课题,并为作者将此次实践的经验应用到课堂教学中去提供了丰富的一手资料。
