历史遗迹景点文本的翻译TheTranslaionofHisoricalSiesTexs_开题报告

  Tourism is more than traveling from one place to another, while it involves many 

other activities as getting to know the local culture, enjoying the  local landscape, 

experiencing exotic customs, and learning the unique history. One of the best ways to 

obtain tourism information is to reading various tourism texts, which may appear in 

many forms and have rich contents. Therefore, tourism texts can be defined as all the 

textual information concerning tourism resources, tourism products, tourism statistics, 

tourism research, tourism education as well as transportation, accommodation, food, shopping and entertainment. 

 In recent years. With more and more foreigners travelling in China, historical sites had become an important medium for the Chinese culture overseas promotion and national soft power enhancement. Chinese government has taken vigorous steps to improve the translation job, including the publishment of tourism brochures, the English websites for historical sites introduction, and English signs in scenic areas, besides English versions, the Korean and Japanese signs can be seen anywhere, which allows foreigners to enjoy much convenience, and also shows the world our broad and profound civilizations.

Considering the current situation for site translation, there still exists many problems, such as Chinese-English expression, cultural mistranslation, grammar mistakes, redundancy and so on, which resulted from the lack of overall management and supervision and also the lack of the translation professionals, Translation is a complicated process, involving not only linguistic transfer but also cultural transfer. It is impossible to describe and explain all the translation problems encountered merely from linguistic approaches. It would be true that the act of translating should be located in the socio-cultural context in which it occurs. In recent years, translation scholars began to embark on translation studies from different approaches, which lead to the appearance of many powerful theories. The functionalist approaches to translation studies, appearing in Germany in the 1970s, are considered be very appropriate for the translation of non-literary texts because they could incorporate the cultural and pragmatic factors very well. German functionalist approaches can function as the macro-level principle for almost all types of translations. However, translation is a special process of linguistic transfer, in which the linguistics theories, especially the theories of discourse analysis are still needed to investigate how people use the language for a special purpose in a given context, and identify the translation problems.
