《法律翻譯》是一本指導(dǎo)人們研究和演習(xí)法律翻譯理論和技巧的力作。該書從語言學(xué)、譯學(xué)以及法學(xué)的三維角度,對法律語言的詞匯、語用、文體、文化等諸多特征、譯者的知識技能、翻譯過程中應(yīng)當(dāng)注意的事項等做了全面深入的闡釋,且從語言和文化對比的角度,對法律翻譯理論進(jìn)行了一定的詮釋。作為華裔澳人利亞人,該書作者所受的中國教育及其秉承的中華文化精髓使其思維范式和表現(xiàn)技法大有讓讀者似曾相識之感覺,因而該書非常適合國人之口味。更難能可貴的是該書作者用較為質(zhì)樸的語言講述了自己多年從事法律翻譯的實踐經(jīng)驗,使該書除了較高的理論研究價值外,還具有一定的文本指導(dǎo)作用。
本書是“筆譯實踐指南叢書”之一,該書從語言學(xué)、譯學(xué)以及法學(xué)的三維角度,對法律語言的諸多特征、譯者的知識技能、翻譯過程中應(yīng)當(dāng)注意的事項等作了較為全面深入的闡釋,且從語言和文化對比的視野,對法律翻譯理論進(jìn)行了一定的詮釋。該書可供各大專院校作為教材使用,也可供從事相關(guān)工作的人員作為參考用書使用。
