A Report On The Translation Of Fearless Leadership Managing Fear,Leading With Courage And Strengthening Authenticity

The present report is a study on the English-Chinese translation extracted from the book Fearless Leadership Overcoming Fear,Leading with Courage and Strengthening Authenticity.The text falls into the category of management science with detailed content,concise language and clear ideas.With the guidance of the Skopos theory and based on the“Comprehension,Expression and Adaptation” Framework of Translation,the report analyzes and discusses the difficulties and problems in the Chinese translation and probes into corresponding translation methods and techniques.The following conclusions are reached through case analyses: In the process of "comprehension",we should improve our comprehension of the original text by means of search tools and contextualization,accurately understand the meaning of words and sentences and convey the information of the original text.In the process of "expression",appropriate adjustments are made to conform to Chinese language structure in expression,including converting English static expression into Chinese dynamic one,using Chinese idioms,adjusting the word order,and hiding the explicit cohesion.In the aspect of "adaptation",addition and deletion of information or additional interpretation are used to ensure the accuracy and fluency of the translation so as to achieve the translation purpose.The report also summarizes the implication from the translation practice: Apart from mastery of translation theories and methods,translators need to have a wide range of knowledge,a broad cultural perspective,a critical thinking ability and proficient writing skills both in Chinese and English,rather than being confined to the choice of translation theories and methods.
