內容簡介：

2023年，杭州舉辦的亞運會將世界媒體的目光吸引到了浙江。除了國內觀眾，以英語觀眾為代表的國外觀眾會如何看待這屆亞運會？筆譯和口譯很大程度上決定了他們的看法態(tài)度。此次講座將探討亞運會走進英語國家的各種方式。講座將從三個方面探討將亞運會英語翻譯所面臨的挑戰(zhàn)：首先，什么樣的具體內容或時刻通常是翻譯工作的重點；第二，這些翻譯需要或應該遵循什么樣的價值觀和理念；第三，在賽后媒體活動的高度動態(tài)和時間敏感環(huán)境中，筆譯和口譯有哪些實際困難和挑戰(zhàn)？此次講座將探討影響此類翻譯的若干哲學問題，重點探討體育賽事相關的一些實際口譯困難，并概述亞運會和奧運會等大型綜合性體育賽事翻譯任務所帶來的專業(yè)和就業(yè)機會。

The 2023 Asian Games was held in Hangzhou, and brought the attention of the world’s media to Zhejiang. Beyond the domestic consumption of the Games, how was the Games be perceived outside of China, particularly among English language audiences? Much depended upon translation and interpretation. This lecture will focus on the various ways in which the Asian Games was brought into the English-speaking realm. Three aspects of the challenges of translating the Asian Games into English will be considered. First, what sort of specific content or moments are typically the focus of translation efforts? Second, what values and ideas do or should guide those translations? Third, what are the practical difficulties and challenges of translating and interpreting in a highly dynamic and time-sensitive environment, such as that of a post-match media event? This talk will address a number of philosophical questions that shape such translation, highlight some practical difficulties of interpretation connected with sporting events, and provide an overview of the professional and employment opportunities arising from the task of translating major multi-sport events like the Asian Games and the Olympic Games.
