教学目标 Course Objectives

本课程为面向各专业本科生开设的人文通识课。通过研读十九世纪后半叶以来，西语世界，尤其是英语世界对中国古典诗

的译介、传播和接受，本课程旨在一方面向学生展现进入中国古典诗歌的一个独特的“他者”视角；另一方面则引导学生

思考诗的可译或不可译性，以及诗歌如何经由译介、阅读与阐释而超越时空和文化的界限并获得新的生命力。本课程秉持

通识教育的理念，立足于研读和讨论的方式，力求引导学生跨越学科的壁垒，抛除偏见而重新贴近诗歌，培养阅读的兴

趣，并训练读诗的能力。课程内容由“概论单元”、“个案研读”与“意象主义”三个部分构成。其中，“概论单元”从

诗歌翻译的理论、实践以及西语世界译介中国古典诗的历史与现状等角度展开，并将邀请有丰富的诗歌翻译经验的译者同

仁通过网络连线的方式进入课堂，与学生对谈。“个案研读”部分以四位各具风格的古典诗人为主轴，辅以其他值得关注

的中诗西译的精彩篇章，在细致对读的基础上对相关的问题展开讨论。“意象主义”部分则集中关注以庞德和洛威尔为代

表的意象派诗人，考察他们如何发现并积极地译介东方，并在当时前所未有的东西文化遇合的历史语境和机遇下创造和发

展了他们新的诗学。本课程特别选取“翻译”这一独特的视角，透过异质文化的译介文本反观中国古典诗歌，不仅能为古

典诗本身的阅读带来新鲜的体验，启发新的思考与理解，而且能将我们的阅读行为置于文化对话的语境下，从而激发我们

思考诗歌在中与西、古与今、现代性与古典的界限面前所具有的超越性价值。

This is a GE oriented course in humanities area, designed for the undergraduate students of all majors. The main content

of this course is to explore the translation, circulation and reception of classical Chinese poetry in the Western world,

especially in the Anglophone culture. This course aims to reveal to the students a unique perspective of the "Other's"

when approaching classical Chinese poetry; it also endeavors to stimulate the students' critical thinking on topics

including the translatability of poetry, as well as its renewed and revitalized being, transcending time, space and culture,

through the process of translation, reading and interpretation. Grounded in close reading and open discussions, this

course is dedicated to encouraging the students to cross the boundaries between fields of knowledge, abandon the bias

and re-approach the world of poetry. The content includes the "introductory section", the "case study section" and the

"Imagism section". The introductory Part I addresses the theory, the practice and the history regarding the poetic

translation in general and the rendition of the classical Chinese poetry in particular. Guest speakers who are experienced

poetry translators will be invited to join the session via online video calls to share their stories and have a conversation

with the students. Part II centers on individual cases of four poets, each bearing distinctive poetic characteristics, who are

richly translated into the Western languages. It aims, based on meticulous processes of reading and discussions, to

inspire critical thinking and shed light upon various issues including, but not limited to, poetic expression, translatability

and cultural appropriation. Part III specifically focuses on the Imagist poets' encounter with and their translational

recreation of the East, spearheaded by Ezra Pound and Amy Lowell. In addition to their respective collections of

renditions, this section also looks at their own poetry, in an attempt to examine a likely cross-cultural imprint, and to

eventually reflect on the poetic translation as a means to generate new poetics in the broad context. In choosing the

angle of translation, this course pushes outside of the box, in order to look back into the classical Chinese poetry. It not

only benefits our reading of the classical Chinese poetry per se, in terms of bringing in fresh perspectives and inspiring

new understanding, but also helps to elevate our reading experience in general, by placing it in a cross-cultural context,

thus showcasing the transcendental values of poetry.

预达学习成果 Learning Outcomes

本课程预期在以下几方面培养学生的能力：

1. 对中国古典诗歌在西语世界的译介历史与现状形成基本的了解，并初步了解西方意象主义诗歌与中国古典诗之间的渊源

2. 在充分阅读和理解中国古典诗歌文本形态的基础上，能够独立细致地研读相应的英文译诗。

3. 能够有效地进行中英诗，以及不同译本之间的对读与比较，并在此过程中思考诗的可译与不可译性。

4. 运用独立的、批判性和创新性思维考察翻译为诗歌的理解所带来的独特视角。

5. 摆脱学科分域的思维定势，探寻从不同的视角观照世界的方式。

This course is designed to help the students develop the following abilities:

1. To form a basic understanding of the history and the current state of the classical Chinese poetry translation in the

Western world, and to have certain basic knowledge regarding the relationship between classical Chinese poetry and the

Imagist poetry.

2. To perform close and meticulous reading on a given English translation, based on a thorough reading and

understanding of its original classical Chinese poem.

3. To efficiently read and compare the original and the translation, as well as different versions of renditions, while

considering the translatability of poetry.

4. To apply independent, critical and original ways of thinking and appreciate the unique perspectives brought by the

poetic translation to the otherwise conventional process of poetry reading.

5. To break free from the disciplinary bias and adopt new approaches to look at the world.
