摘要步入现代，各国经济文化发展繁荣。西方的各种翻译理论也在此时蓬勃发展，呈现出百花齐放的局面，为翻译研究提供了新的视角。接受美学理论是一种强调读者地位和积极作用的新理论。它要求作者在创作文学作品时，要考虑目标读者的期待视野。在儿童文学翻译中，要求译者以儿童为中心，了解儿童的知识接受程度，避免阅读困难。本文通过对赵元任译本的Alice’sadventuresinWonderland的研究，探讨接受美学对儿童文学翻译的指导意义。本文分为七章章。第一章是绪论，包括论文的意义、研究问题和结构。第二章是文献综述，总结了前人对儿童文学和《爱丽丝梦游仙境》的中文译本的研究。第三章和第四章给出了本文的理论框架，从接受美学的角度探讨儿童文学的翻译。本文试图将接受美学融入儿童文学翻译中，试图解决儿童文学翻译的问题。第五章是个案研究，从接受美学的角度对中国版《爱丽丝梦游仙境》作了初步分析。通过分析，得出结论：一个好的儿童文学翻译应该了解接受者。面对文化因素，译者应尽量采用归化为首要策略，异化为翻译实践的补充。它能保证儿童读者的顺利、愉快的阅读和理解。第六章阐述了接受美学在翻译中的局限性，最后一章得出结论。关键词：爱丽丝梦游仙境；接受美学；儿童文学

V.ForReceptionAestheticsintheTranslationofAlice’sAdventuresinWonderlandAsmentionedabove,theapplicationofreceptionaestheticsinchildren’sliteraturetranslationismainlyembodiedinthreeaspects:subjectivityofreaders,expectationhorizon,appealingstructure.Translatorsshouldfullyconsidertheexpectationhorizonsofchildren’sreadersandthinkandexpressfromtheirperspective,soastoachievethefusionofhorizonswithreaders.Theculturaldifferencesbetweenthetwocountrieswillbeencounteredintranslation,whichbelongstotheuncertaintyofthetext.Translatorsshoulddealwiththesegapsaccordingtothereaders’acceptanceofforeigncultures.Onthebasisoffillingtheseculturalgaps,theyshouldalsoretainsomeuncertaintiesappropriately,soastoincreasethecuriosityofchildrenreadersandbroadentheirhorizonsofexpectation.Thispaperwillelaboratetheguidanceofreceptionaestheticsinthetranslationofchildren’sliteraturefromthelinguisticandculturallevels.5.1UsingReceptionAestheticsintheEnglish-ChinesetranslationofAlice’sAdventuresinWonderland5.1.1linguisticlevelsAccordingtothetheoryofreceptionaesthetics,translationofchildren’sliteratureshouldattachimportancetothestatusofchildren’sreadersandnarrowtheaestheticdistancebetweenchildrenandliterature.Therefore,thechoiceoftranslatedvocabularyisveryimportant.Children’sage,psychology,experienceandknowledgebackgroundaredifferentfromthoseofordinaryreaders.Whentranslatingchildren’sliteraryworks,translatorsshouldtrytheirbesttoselectsimpleandunderstandablewordsacceptabletochildreninordertostimulatetheirinterestinreading.Seethefollowingexamplesanalysis:Example1:Ithad,infact,asortofmixedflavorofcherry-tart,custard,pineapple,roast-turkey,toffee,andhotbut-teredtoast.有点像樱桃饼，又有点像鸡蛋羹有点像菠萝蜜，又有点像烤火鸡，有点像冰淇淋，又有点像芝麻酱。ThepronunciationofEnglishisquitedifferentfromthatofChinese.Englishsentencesaregenerallylong,complexandhavemanymodifiers.Itisdifficultforsmallreaderstounderstandandacceptlongsentencestructures.Consideringthereader’sexperience,knowledgeandexperience,theauthorsimplifiessentences,whichcaneasilycatchtheattentionofthesmallreadersandmakethemthinkmoreeasilyaboutthetasteofthefooddescribedinthearticle.Example2:itwokeupagainwithalittleshriek,andwenton:“thatbeginswithanM，suchasmouse-traps,andthemoon,andmemory,andmuchness...”翻译1：…它”哜”地一叫。又醒了过来，又接着讲到:“样样东西只要是M字声音的，譬如猫儿，明月，梦，满满儿…”翻译2：…啊呀，它又叫了一声，醒过来继续说：”每一件东西只要是M字打头的，譬如捕鼠器、月亮、回忆以及很多”Fromtheperspectiveofreceptionaestheticsandreaders’limitedacceptance,translation1adoptsdomestication,insteadofdirectlytranslating“mouse-traps,andthemoon,andmemory,andmuchness”into“捕鼠器、月亮、回忆以及很多”astranslation2does.Itseeksforanewvocabularyandreplacesitwith“猫儿，明月，梦，满满儿”.Thetranslationnotonlyretainstheoriginalmeaning.Itisalsohelpfulforsmallreaderstounderstandthemeaningof“thatbeginswithanM”.Itcanmakesmallreadersbetteraccepttranslation,understandthemeaningoftheoriginaltext,andbetterintegratewiththeexpectationhorizonofsmallreaders.Example3:Presentlyshebeganagain.“IwonderifIshallfallrightthroughtheearth!Howfunnyit’llseemtocomeoutamongthepeoplethatwalkwiththeirheadsdownwards!Theantipathies,Ithink--”(Shewasrathergladtherewasnoonelistening,thistime,asitdidn’tsoundatalltherightword)翻译：一会儿她又说话了。她道，”我倒不知道会不会一直掉穿了地球嘞，那怎办么呢？掉到那边，遇见了许多倒着站的人，一定很好玩儿！叫倒猪世界，世界”的名字，又觉得“倒猪世界”又不大像——WhenAlicefellfromtherabbithole,shewantedtoknowifshewouldfalloffthegroundandcomeouttheotherside.Ontheotherhand,itreferstoplacesthataretotallyoppositetowheretheyare,suchasAustraliaandNewZealand,asopposedtoEurope.Forchildrenreaders,limitedknowledgeandexperiencecannotmakethemfullyunderstandthemeaningoftheoriginaltext,sotheauthoruseschildlikelanguagetocreatenewwords.Insteadoftranslatingtheword“antipathies”into“nuisance”,thetranslatorcreatedanewwordsuchas“倒足”and“倒猪”fromtheperspectiveofchildren.Withthehumorouslanguage,itaddedanabsurdeffectthatchildrencouldunderstandandenjoy,andalsocreatedthespaceforchildrentoimagine.5.1.2culturelevelCultureandlanguageareindivisible.Everylanguageisrootedinaparticularculture.Thereisnoculturewithoutlanguage.Translation,cannotbeunderstoodasatranslationofthetext,butalsotranslatetheculturalmeaningbehindtheoriginaltext.Translationisnotonlytheconversionoflanguagesymbols,butalsothetransformationofculture.Translationisnotonlyseenasatransformationoflinguisticsymbols,butalsoasamodelofculturaltransformation.Therefore,translationisacross-culturalinterlanguagecommunicationactivity.Children’sliteraryworksaredifferentfromotherliteraryworks.Childrenareatthestageoflearningtheirmothertongue,andtheirthinkinghasnotyetformed.Iftoomanyforeignculturesareinvolved,theywillbringmanyuncertainfactorstotheirreading,thusaffectingchildren’sinterestinreading.Whentranslating,translatorsmustnotonlyretainchildren’sinterestintheoriginaltext,butalsotranslatetheculturethatchildren’sreaderscanunderstand.Infact,translatingchildren'sliteratureismuchmoredifficultthanforadults.Becausethechildmaynottolerateoccasionalvulgarandunnaturalwordsappearinginthetranslation.Example:Shewenton“andvinegarthatmakesthemsourandchamomilethatmakesthembitterand-andbarley-sugarandsuchthingsthatmakechildrensweettempered.”翻译：她就接下去道……”心酸大概是喝了酸梅汤的缘故，命苦大概是吃了黄连的缘故，还有，还有小孩儿的脾气甜甜的，大概是吃了大麦糖那些东西的缘故……，”“chamomile”isafamiliarthingtoWesterners,andthechildrenofthesourcelanguagecanquicklyreflectthemeaningitreferto.However,inChinese,thiswordisrarelyusedtosymbolizebitterness.Whenpeopleseethisword,theycan’timmediatelyreflectthemeaningbehindit.Accordingtoreceptionaesthetics,ifthetranslatorignorestheideologyofthereaderofthereceivinglanguage,thewordwillloseitsreferentialmeaningsintheoriginaltext.Ifliteraltranslationfailstoconveytheoriginalmeaningvividlyandappropriatelytothetargetreaders,thenitisthebestchoicetoconvertitintosomethingfamiliartothetargetreaders.Inthispassage,theauthoruseswordslikevinegar,chamomileandmaltose,whicharecommonindailylife,tomakechildrenassociatethemwithtaste.Vinegarissour,thisissomethingeveryonecanthinkof.ChamomileisanaromaticscentbutbitterherbthatisnativetoEurope.Theassociationmeaningofthischamomileis“bittertaste.”Barleysugarisakindofsugarmadefromchocolateandcoconut.Itsassociationis“sweet”.InChina,childrendon’tknowmuchaboutchamomileandmaynotunderstanditsextension.Inthetranslation,thetranslatorused“酸梅汤”,“黄连”and“大麦糖”toexpresssourness,bitternessandsweetness,whichisveryfamiliartoChinesechildren.5.2RemarkableeffectsofapplyingthetheoriesReceptionAestheticstoEnglish-ChinesetranslationofAlice’sAdventuresinWonderland5.2.1simpleandvividChildren’slanguageisoftenlivelyandinteresting.Intheprocessoftranslationofchildren’sliterature,alargenumberofrhetoricaldevicessuchasmetaphor,exaggeration,anthropomorphism,andonomatopoeianeedtobedealtwith.Iftheserhetoriccanbeproperlyhandled,thetranslationwillbevividandinteresting,fullofvividnessandfun,soastomaximizethereadinginterestofsmallreaders.Butshewentonallthesame，sheddinggallonsoftears，untiltherewasalargepoolallaroundher，aboutfourinchesdeepandreachinghalfdownthehall.但是她哭的越哭越苦，越苦越哭，一盆一盆的眼泪哭个不住，一直哭到她周围成了一个眼泪池，有四寸来深，哭的几乎满厅都是水。Children’sknowledgeandexperiencerestricttheexpressionoftheauthor’slanguage,thusaffectingthestyleofthewholetranslation.Vividwordsattractchildren’sattentionmore.Therefore,theauthorusesthewords“一盆一盆的眼泪”and“眼泪池”inhistransla
