Translating " The World is Flat " and Translation Analysis
摘要
本論文旨在藉由翻譯傳達性信息文本內容來翻譯湯佛里曼(Thomas Loren Friedman)所著，於2005年出版『世界是平的』(The World is Flat)一書部分內容。本論文採用功能翻譯理論中主要由漢斯．維米爾(Hans J. Vermeer)於20世紀70年代所提出的目的論(Skopostheorie Theory)為主軸來實踐筆譯及探討分析，尤其在原文的含義傳達及譯文呈現的處理。本論文分為五章，第一章緒論表述筆者的研究動機和目的，第二章文獻探討除介紹中西翻譯史和翻譯理論外，對於維米爾所提出的目的論有較詳盡的解說，第三章譯文，第四章分析與探討就譯文處理過程中面臨的語言問題提出討論，第五章結論。譯者依據所設定的目的，忠實地傳達原文的精神與氛圍，而譯文的語法則以目的語言的讀者為首要考量；而以目的論而言，翻譯並無直譯與意譯的限制，端看譯者的目的而論，譯者可謂原文與目的語言的橋樑，應在兩種文字與文化間自由穿梭，發揮創造力，用精確的語言傳遞訊息，表達出最貼切的原文風格，延續原文風采，又能符合譯文讀者舒適可讀性。

This thesis applies Skopostheorie Theory represented by Hans J. Vermeer to translate parts of the book 「The World is Flat」 written by Thomas Loren Friedman, published in 2005. The thesis is divided into five chapters: Chapter 1 Introduction illustrates the purpose of this study. Chapter 2 Literature Review introduces a brief Chinese and Western translation history and theories with special attention to the Skopostheorie by Hans J. Vermeer. Chapter 3 is the translated text. Chapter 4 discusses translation issues as encountered in this thesis. Chapter 5 is the conclusion. The translator acts as a bridge between the author in source language(SL)and the reader in TL. Skopostheorie focuses on the target language(TL)reader, suggesting that the translator should try to reflect the spirit and the beauty of the original author in TL readers' language with readability.
