内容摘要：典籍的复译要求译者具有创造性，尤其是冷门经典的复译，对译者追求新颖性和扬长弃短的能力有极大的挑战。笔记小说集《阅微草堂笔记》已有多种外译本，但在国内尚未引起较多的关注。卜立德的英译本以“志怪揭史”为突破，力图为读者展示真實的社会历史、风土人情，以及机智局限并存的作者纪昀。译者秉着对读者处处友善的原则，选取可读性强的篇目，尽量避开异化翻译，并通过搭建文化预设、利用互文、寻找对应词以满足读者在猎奇异域文化时的阅读享受。卜立德译本对《笔记》的新阐释赋予其复译的价值。

Title： Puzzles and Solutions of Retranslating Yuewei Caotang Biji： Taking Pollard’s Version as an Example

Abstract： The retranslation of classics， especially of unpopular classics， requires translators to be creative. This poses great challenge to the translators’ capacity of  pursuing novelty. It is also not easy to develop the strong points and abandon the shortcomings of the books. The account collection Yuewei caotang biji have seen many translated versions in the West， but have not attracted much attention in China. By revealing the history through strange accounts， Pollard’s version intends to show readers the real social history， local conditions and customs， as well as the author Ji Yun， an erudite with wit and limitations. Pollard adheres to the reader-friendly principle by selecting highly readable texts， and avoids foreignization as much as possible. Moreover， the translator satisfies readers’ enjoyment in reading the exotic cultures by constructing cultural presupposition， applying intertextuality and English equivalents. The new interpretation of Biji in his translation proves the value of retranslation.

复译，这里指一部经典文学作品被多次翻译的现象。只有当作品的价值受到目的语读者的认可后，复译才能延伸其流传的时间和意义。中国古代文学作品的复译是典籍英译发展的必然结果，每一次复译都是对中国传统文化价值观的建构（谭莲香、辛红娟 137）。我国堪称经典的文学作品种类繁多，成功“走出去”的作品也层出不穷，但遗憾的是，有不少作品成为冷门。……
