新加坡多语文化 ：探讨程异英译英培安《戏服》的翻译的目的与策略 = Showcasing Singapore’s unique multilingualism : the skopos behind Jeremy Tiang’s costume

2015年，英培安推出了将近14万字的小说《戏服》。小说分为上下两部，除了讲述了梁家三代人的不同命运也贯穿了新加坡的重大历史事件。小说也围绕着粤剧和一件戏服述说着粤剧在新加坡的发展和梁家人因粤剧所发生的不同人生故事。小说中的爷爷梁炳宏是来自中国广东的移民，因而《戏服》中有不少的粤语（方言）对话和粤剧台词 。2019年，新加坡的英语作家程异 （Jeremy Tiang）将《戏服》翻译成英文版的Costume。程异所翻译的小说在国外获得了不少读者的青睐，因为其译文能够让读者通过小说中当地人的视角来看一个国家多种文化如物质、社会和语言。新加坡中英译文学作品的文学翻译学术研究是一个较少被关注的课题，本文希望能够通过分析程异的译文Costume，探讨新加坡文学翻译的目的、手法与意义。 本文会通过译者翻译这部作品的目的以及对比原文与译文，看译者如何翻译其中新加坡特有的词汇，并且在适时之处采用异化翻译策略，利用新加坡式英语单词在译文中展现新加坡的多语文化。 Yeng Pway Ngon published his sixth novel, Costume (Xi Fu), in 2015. The novel is divided into two parts, narrating about the family saga of the Leong's and their destinies revolving around the development of Cantonese opera in Singapore and a set of opera costume. The novel spanning eight decades and three generations also runs through major historical events of Singapore. Grandfather, Leong Ping Hung came to Singapore from Guangdong, China, in the 1910s. He spoke Cantonese (a form of dialect) as his mother tongue. Hence various dialogues were carried out in the dialect instead of Mandarin. In 2019, Singapore writer Jeremy Tiang translated the novel into English, Costume. Translations by Jeremy Tiang have won favours of many western readers because his work allowed readers to look at the various cultures of the country from the perspective of the natives. The study of the literary translation of Singapore Chinese-English translation work is a subject that has received less attention in academics. This paper hopes to find out more about the Singapore Chinese-English literary translation by analyzing the skopos and translation technique of Jeremy Tiang's Costume. This paper will attempt to uncover the Skopos behind Jeremy Tiang's Costume. By comparing the source and target text, this paper also aims to investigate how the translator makes use of the foreignisation technique and Singlish phrases to translate phrases that are uniquely Singapore, to showcase Singapore's unique multilingualism.Bachelor of Arts in Chines
