2014年10月30日,曹明伦与谢天振两位教授就翻译研究的诸多问题在四川大学展开了一场对话。据报道,该次对话取得以下主要成果:厘清了部分概念,消除了一些误解,达成了某些共识。笔者阅读该对话文稿后,发现谢天振教授就“中西翻译理论的关系”所发表的意见中有一些似乎还值得商榷,故而生出新的“对话”。 On October 30, 2014, two professors, Cao Minglun and Xie Tianzhen, started a dialogue with Sichuan University on many issues concerning translation studies. It is reported that the dialogue achieved the following major achievements: Clarifying some concepts, eliminating some misunderstandings and reaching some consensus. After I read the dialogue, I found that some of Professor Xie Tianzhen’s views on “the relationship between Chinese and Western translation theory ” also seem to be open to question, thus creating a new “dialogue.”
