Complementary Application of
Domestication and Foreignization

归化和异化的互补性应用研究（宋体，小二号，黑体）
摘 要: 长久以来，翻译一直被看作是只发生在两种语言间的行为。在过去的几十年里，随着翻译研究的文化转向，翻译作为跨文化行为的性质也越来越引起翻译研究者的注意，怎样有效地在翻译中传达语言和文化中存在的差异一下子成了翻译界的热门话题，自此，归化异化之争也开始浮出水面。国内外的 翻译理论家纷纷对归化异化之争发表自己的看法。通过仔细研究，我们发现他们的分歧主要在于翻译过程中归化异化的选择问题。在争论的早期，学者们倾向于把归化和异化看作是对立的两个翻译策略，所以他们往往激烈地批评一种策略，支持另一种策略，而他们的讨论在很大程度上集中在这两个策略的优缺点上。本论文首先介绍了归化和异化的概念，其次分析了归化和异化各自的优势,后再通过翻译实例证实了归化和异化的融和使用的时效性。

Introduction
This thesis is to introduce the concepts of domestication and foreignization; introduce the ways of achieving domestication and foreignization; analyse their own advantages; and illustrate the complementary application of the two translation methods by examples of translation.
In 1813, the German theologian and philosopher Friedrich Schleiermacher described the different methods of translation in a lecture:“There are only two. Either the translator leaves the author in peace, as much as possible, and moves the reader towards him; or he leaves the reader in peace, as much as possible, and moves the author towards him ”(Lefevere, 1977: 78; Schulte&Biguenet, 1992: 42). In short, one is the source language culture oriented and the other is the target language culture oriented. Schleiermacher's comment on the translation methods has a far-reaching influence in the field of translation in the West . Based on Schleiermacher's theory, American deconstruction theorist Lawrence Venuti put forward the corresponding terms of domestication and foreignization in his book The Translator's Invisibility: A History of Translation in 1995. By making a research into the history of western translation practice, he criticizes the target language culture oriented tendency characterized by fluent domestication in the Anglo-American translation practice. In Anglo-American culture, among the current diverse schools of translation studies, Nida's concept of dynamic or later “functional equivalence” in translation can be a representative of domesticating translation. According to Venuti, Nida wants to place restrictions of transparency on every foreign culture in accordance with the target language cultural canons. Under the disguise of transparency, the fluent domesticating method is used to carry out the task of appropriating foreign culture rather than conducting cultural exchange.
This part is to introduce the concepts of domestication and foreignization.
1.1 Domestication
The following are the concept of domestication and the ways of achieving domestication.
1.1.1 Concept of Domestication
Domestication refers to the translation strategy in which a transparent, fluent style is adopted to minimize the strangeness of the foreign text for target language readers (Venuti, 1995: 83). As an approach to cultural elements, domestication is target language culture oriented. It attaches importance to the target language culture and tries its best to find a corresponding equivalent in the target language culture for every element in the source language text. The famous translation theorist Eugene Nida is undoubtedly an outstanding representative of the domesticating strategy . He puts forward the famous principle of "dynamic equivalence" (D-E), which puts the target reader in the first place. One way of defining a D-E translation is to describe it as "the closest natural equivalent approach considers to the source language message".
1.1.2 Ways of Achieving Domestication
In order to make the target language reader easily to understand the foreign text, we always achieve domestication.There are several ways of achieving domestication we often see in our translation practice.
(1) Replacing the source language cultural image with the established target language image. When translating, we should pay more attention to the differences between the source culture and target culture lest some misunderstanding be produced. For example,
①Everybody's business is nobody's business.
“三个和尚无水喝”。 ( 黄继忠, 1982: 122 )
Everybody in the first sentence here refers to people who invovle in the same business, if everybody does so, things will get bad. That is the established target language image to replace the source language cultural image.
(2) Replacing the source language form with the established target language form.
As we know, the differences in cultures give rise to more differences in languages, especially between the Chinese language and the English language, which belong to two distinct language families. Here are examples,
②The men and women throughout the world who think that a living future is preferable to a dead world of rocks and deserts will have to rise and demand, in tones so loud that they cannot be ignored, that common sense, humanity and the dictates of that moral law which Mr. Duties believes that he respects, should guide our troubled era into that happiness which only its own folly is preventing.
充满生机的未来胜于遍布岩石和沙漠的荒野，凡持此观点的世人，都应该行动起来，用无比洪亮的声音唤醒众人：正是我们今天的愚蠢做法在阻碍着人类走向幸福，我们必须依靠理智，仁慈以及杜勒斯先生所倡导的道义原则，来引导这个动乱的时代迈入幸福的殿堂. ( 马红军, 2000: 105 )
1.2 Foreignization
The following are the concept of domestication and the ways of achieving domestication.
1.2.1 Concept of Foreignization
Quite opposite to domestication in handling the cultural elements in translation, foreignization is source language culture oriented. It designates the type of translation in which a target text deliberately breaks target conventions by retaining something of the foreignness of the original (Venuti, 1995: 73). Among all the advocates of foreignization, the great American scholar Venuti is most well known for his concept of "resistant translation", according to which the foreis of the source language text should be kept obvious in the target language text. He overtly stated that his purpose is to develop a new type of translation theory and practice, to stop the target language culture from taking the leading position.
1.2.2 Ways of Achieving Foreignization
In order to keep the spirit of source language and the foreign feature, we always achieve foreignization..
There are several ways of retaining foreigness of the original are as follows.
(1) Keeping the proper names of a person, a place, a title etc and conveying the alien features.
Each culture has a number of proper names with a large scale of sources and rich allusions. As a carrier of culture, the proper names implicate rich cultural association and vividly reveal the national cultures. In the process of translating, if coming across the names of persons, places, titles etc, with the unique features of the source language, we should adopt the foreignization. For example,
2.1 The Advantages of Domestication
Drawing on Schleiermacher's idea, Lawrence Venuti defines domestication as“an ethnocentric reduction of the foreign text to the target language cultural values, bringing the author back home”(Venuti,1995: 20). Domestication has enjoyed great popularity among translators and translation critics in the translation history. The popularity of domestication is justified mainly in the following aspects,
(1) Domestication does not impose the original language conventions and culture on the target language and culture because such practice is regarded as both impractical and dangerous.“To attempt to impose the value system of the source language culture on to the target language culture is dangerous ground.”(Bassnet, 1980:30) Therefore domestication adapts the original language conventions and culture to those of the target culture to overcome the barriers brought about by the differences both in language and culture.
(2) Domestication erases the linguistic and cultural foreignness and strangeness of the original text or reduces them to a minimum because translation is an indispensable medium of communication and the translator should facilitate the cross-cultural communication by avoiding cultural conflicts and misunderstanding. Translator should not expect too much of the target readers' intelligence and imagination and force them to understand the original language patterns and culture with which they are totally unfamiliar.
2.2 The Advantages of Foreignization
Foreignization, according to Venuti, is " an ethnodeviant pressure on those[target language cultural] values to register the linguistic and cultural difference of the foreign text, sending the reader abroad."(Venuti, 1995:20) This source culture oriented approach respects the foreignness of the source language and culture and tries to retain the foreign linguistic forms and cultural differences in the target text so that it enables the target readers to gain "an alien reading experience"(ibid.: 20), know the other culture and promote cultural communication. Such a strategy will involve not only "a freedom from absolute obedience to target linguistic and textual constraints, but also where appropriate the selection of an on-fluent, opaque style and the deliberate inclusion of source language "(Schutleworth&Cowie, 1997:59 ) However, for Venuti, foreignization is more than a simple approach that tries only to keep the foreign elements in the target text.
However, many other translators, besides Friedrich Schleiermacher and Lawrence Venuti, also actively call for the adoption of foreignization primarily for the following reasons,
(1) It's necessary for the target reader to acquaint himself with the foreign culture. As a matter of fact, to seek the foreign culture is usually one of the purposes of many target readers reading a translation. Bringing the facts of the original language and culture as they are to the target reader instead of concealing or erasing them through domestication can ultimately facilitate the cross-cultural communication .
(2) Foreignizing approach that transplants the original culture into the target culture will serve to enrich the target culture and the ways of expressions of the target language.
2.3 Complementary Application of Domestication and Foreignization in the Chinese version of Uncle Tom's Cabin
Foreignization aims at cultural transfer, whereas domestication tends to be the very reverse of this transference. However, it should be admitted that no translation is the product of absolute domestication or foreignization. In 1852, Uncle Tom's Cabin was published. Its publication received immediate responses from readers. It was like a bolt from the blue, the whole American society was shocked by the cruelty of the slavery in the South disclosed by the book without mercy. Take Huang Jizhong's version of Uncle Tom's Cabin for example. For the most part, Huang adopted foreignizing translation, but meanwhile, one fact cannot go unnoticed that he did employ, to a degree, the domesticating method in his translation. To prove this, an analysisis made from the linguistic and cultural perspectives. The translator domesticates the source text by conforming to the target language norms. For example,
⑦ Henrique, the eldest son of Alfred, was an bole, dark-eyed, rincel boy, full of vivacity and spirit. ( Stowe, 1992: 264 )
阿尔弗雷德的大儿子亨利克生得气宇轩昂,仪表堂堂 ;他有一双黑眼睛，是个朝气蓬勃、精力充沛的孩子。(黄继忠，1982: 351)
Chinese language is abundant in four-word idioms, typical structures of our mother tongue . In this short sentence, which describes the appearance of a boy, surprisingly, the translator uses as many as four idioms. There are a large number of idioms used in his translation.
Conclusion
First of all, this thesis introduces the concepts of domestication and foreignization. Domestication refers to the translation strategy in which a transparent, fluent style is adopted to minimize the strangeness of the foreign text for target language readers (Venuti, 1995: 83). Quite opposite to domestication in handling the cultural elements in translation, foreignization is source language culture oriented. It designates the type of translation in which a target text deliberately breaks target conventions by retaining something of the foreignness of the original (ibid.: 73).
Afterwards this thesis introduces the ways of achieving domestication and foreignization and their own advantages. Domestication, according to Venuti's study, can strengthen the cultural conventions and norms of the target culture. Foeignization approach that transplants the original culture into the target culture will serve to enrich the target culture and the ways of expressions of the target language.
Consequently, this thesis has proved the complementary application of domestication and foreignization by the Chinese version of Uncle Tom's Cabin by Huang Jizhong. After taking basic translational principles into consideration, we realized that both domestication and foreignizaton are necessary methods in the transfer of cultural elements.
