一、前言

欧阳桢（EUGENE Chen Eoyang， 1939-），英语世界有名的华裔学者，在文学翻译理论和汉诗英译方面都卓有建树。他一生撰写了不少学术著作和学术论文。其中最著名的学术著作为《透明之眼：对翻译、中国文学和比较诗学的思考》（The Transparent Eye： Reflection on Translation， Chinese Literature and Comparative Poetics， University of Hawaii Press， 1993），其间提到他最出名的三个文学翻译标准，即自明（self-sufficient）、信达（generically true）与透明（transparent）。“自明”就是无需依靠其他材料来帮助理解和欣赏;“信达”指将原作原原本本译出，原文与译文情调相吻合;“透明”是完全可以透过译文看到原著。总之，“好的译文应能反映原著的特点。”下面我们选取几首由他翻译的唐诗宋词来分析他的翻译标准在其中的运用。

二、译作简析

杜甫

舍南舍北皆春水，但见群鸥日日来。

花径不曾缘客扫，蓬门今始为君开。

盘飧市远无兼味，樽酒家贫只旧醅。

肯与邻翁相对饮，隔篱呼取尽余杯。

Flower-strewn paths havent been swept for the guest，

The thatched door is open today， just for you.

Far as we are from market， out food has no taste.

Being a poor homesteads， our wine is home-brewed.

To propose a toast with our old neighbor

We can across the fence， and empty a few draughts.

这是一首纪事诗，乡土生活气息浓厚。首联描述居所的景色，春意盎然，环境清幽恬静;颔联描写了主人生活的闲适恬淡，从而引出“客至”。颈链和尾联则实写待客。具体展现了酒菜款待的场景。虽是粗茶淡饭，却也体现出主人的一番真情厚意。该诗的诗歌形式和格律韵式十分对仗工整，诗歌风格质朴流畅，浅切平易。……
