  • 本論文旨在以翻譯實務引介中文讀者較為陌生的英國詩人道森(Ernest Christopher Dowson, 1868-1900)。文中所處理之作品為道森的詩集Verses,計序詩一首,序文一篇,詩作四十四首。
    論文正文共分兩大部分:導言部分簡述道森詩作之現有中文譯文概況,及翻譯時所面臨之挑戰與基本處理方向。餘與詩作間接相關之生平,咸納為本論文附錄。
    除翻譯實務外,道森生平之考據以及詩作之註解,亦為本論文著力之處,蓋因其相關資料取得不易,且詩中之典故、引述於現存詩集中多未有註解,並道森好以拉丁文與法文之詩句入詩,所引所指應多留意,實不宜倉促著手。考注之餘,除利翻譯,亦期予潛在讀者些許參考價值。
    鑑於處理之詩作全數為格律詩,並道森生平一再強調韻文之音樂性,譯文著力於重現原作中最為凸顯之詩韻,故此處理方向實為翻譯時之中心課題。而最終目的,則期以此作拉近道森與中文讀者的距離。

    This thesis is to present the English poet Ernest Christopher Dowson (1868-1900) to the Chinese readership, and to proffer a Chinese translation of his first collection of poetic works, Verses, which includes a preface, an envoy, an 44 poems.
    This thesis is composed of three parts. The introduction, starting with a discussion of the existent few Chinese translation of Dowson’s works, outlines Dowson’s time and the cultural characteristics of it; near the end of it, a brief review of Dowson’s language and the basic translating procedures employed in the thesis are brought forth. The second part is the complete translation of Dowson’s Verses, while the third part offers a reconstruction of Dowson’s life as the appendix.
    Endeavors have been made to reconstruct a biography and to annotate the work to be translated. Publications on Dowson’s works or life are comparatively few, and he often quotes Latin and French verse in his own poems. Besides, some of his poems can be further understood to an eminent degree by consulting his collection of letters. The biography and the annotation of the original, for their assistance in interpreting the verse text, were first embarked on and cost no less time or efforts than the translation itself.
    The focus and the challenge on translating Dowson’s poems are oftentimes the poetic musicality which Dowson did for several times emphasize or over-emphasize in his correspondence with friends. In the Chinese translation, attempts are made to represent his poetic musicality mostly by rhyming. Verse forms like villanelle, sonnet, ballad can be found with the exact rhyme scheme in their Chinese rendition. If the original rhyme scheme is not followed, the translation is made to rhyme otherwise. The goal is to draw near the distance between Dowson and his potential readers; the hope, to arouse feelings similar to that the original does.
