法律翻译技巧分析论文提纲

论文题目：Sarcevic法律翻译理论视角下法律汉语术语的英译研究

摘要：随着我国与其他国家在政治、经济和文化的不断交流,许多外国人来到中国学习、生活以及从事经济文化教育等各种活动。这些外国人在中国必须遵守中国的法律,因此,译介中国的法律变得越来越重要。在法律翻译中,法律术语的翻译直接关系到源语法律文本的权威性和可信度,是法律翻译中十分重要的部分。国内对于术语的翻译研究主要是从关联理论和功能对等理论的视角,很少从Susan Sarcevic（苏珊·沙尔切维奇）的法律翻译理论视角。自Sarcevic（沙尔切维奇）提出了其法律翻译理论后,对法律翻译实践产生了十分重要的影响。本文以Sarcevic（沙尔切维奇）的法律翻译理论为理论基础,以北大法宝法律数据库所提供的《中华人民共和国刑事诉讼法》（全文289条,共34405字）和《全国人民代表大会常务委员会关于修改＜中华人民共和国刑事诉讼法＞的决定》（全文共26条,5444字）的英译本为语料,试图回答以下两个问题:1.这两部法律和决定中的法律术语的英译存在着什么问题?2.应采取什么翻译方法或翻译技巧来解决这些问题?通过对这两部法律和决定中的术语的英译分析,本文发现:（1）对等法律术语的英译和源语法律术语存在细微差异,没有译出源语法律术语的核心含义;（2）部分对等法律术语英译的含义大于或小于源语法律术语的含义;（3）零对等法律术语的英译在源语法律术语中没有相对应的概念。对于这些问题,译者可采用直译、词汇扩充、描述性释义和中性术语等翻译方法或翻译技巧。
