1、On Foreignization and Domestication in Translation-from the Perspective of Cross-cultural摘要 最近二十多年来，翻译研究逐渐转向文化间的比较。一般而言，翻译中文化的转换有两种基本策略：以目的语文化为归宿的归化和以源语文化为归宿的异化。归化是指尽量将译语文化纳入译文读者的知识范围，将作者引向读者；异化是指在翻译中保留原文语言文化的特异之处，将读者引向作者。由于源语文化和译语文化的巨大差异，译者在翻译过程中必然会面临两难选择，因而一篇译作也必然会出现归化或异化的倾向。可以说，归化和异化的课题是翻译研究的核心课题
2、之一。为了更好地解决这一问题，各国语言学家、翻译工作者提出了各种各样的翻译方法手段，归化与异化就是其中最具代表性的一对。本文着重探讨跨文化翻译当中的这两种翻译策略，并阐明它们之间的关系以及在翻译工作中的应用。第一部分主要论述了语言、翻译与文化之间的关系。在第二部分中，作者简要介绍了两种翻译策略的倡导者、理论基础以及中外历史上关于如何运用这两种翻译策略的争论等。第三部分主要分析制约这两种翻译策略的因素，如翻译目的、文本类型、作者意图以及读者的接受能力等。第四部分重点探讨归化和异化这两种翻译策略之间的辨证关系。指出何时应该采用归化的策略，何时应该采用异化的策略以及何时这两种策略并用，使之相互补充。
3、通过以上分析，作者得出结论，这两种翻译策略，都有其各自的特点和实用价值，过于强调其中的一种都是片面的，不科学的。我们不仅应该研究这两种策略的特点，还应分析它们在什么情况下，为了什么目的，适用于什么样的文本类型等。我们不能把翻译策略看成是绝对的，辩证地研究这两种翻译策略才有利于翻译研究的繁荣。关键词:翻译 文化 归化 异化AbstractOne of the most striking features in contemporary translation studies is theorientation towards cultural transfer rather than lingu
