中文摘要:随着世界经济及全球化的发展,国与国之间的交流也更加频繁,同时,人们的精神文化生活在不断地提高和丰富,许多优秀的外国影视作品走进了人们的视野。在这种情况下,为了实现不同语种之间影视作品的欣赏,影视字幕翻译应运而生。优秀的影视字幕翻译可以让观众没有丝毫的文化障碍,满足观众的需求。
影视字幕翻译在正确传递原片语言信息的同时不同程度地传达了原片的文化信息。因此,在影视字幕翻译时不仅要注意语言旳交际特色,传递文化内涵,还要注意译文、字幕在原有语意、语境的基础上符合人们的语言习惯。因为字幕翻译不同于文学文本,字幕翻译是为普通大众服务的,在进行最佳语言沟通和文化传播的同时,必须照顾到受众的文化层次和兴趣取向,合理进行字幕翻译的保留与创新,达到双向的结合与平衡。
本文从传播学角度出发,以《冰雪奇缘》的字幕为语料,借助于传播学的理论和方法来探究字幕翻译中的各种策略,从而有效地将电影内容传递给观众以达到最佳的传播效果。
