从薛绍徽的英译本《八十日环游记》来看新与旧的冲击
The Impact of the New and the Old in Light of Xue Shaohui’s Translation of Around the World in Eighty Days

晚清才女薛绍徽是中国近代社会不可多得的优秀女性翻译家，她与丈夫陈寿彭合译了法国作家凡尔纳的科幻小说《八十日环游记》，成为凡尔纳科幻小说最早的中译者。小说由陈寿彭口译，薛绍徽笔述。从译作《八十日环游记》中，体现出薛绍徽翻译既忠实又创造。既忠实于原文，又带有主观的创造性。从中可以探寻出薛绍徽女性意识中的“矛盾”；她积极接纳西方知识，但也用儒家道德体系来抵制这些理论；她支持女学，但又恪守妇道。译者“保守与开放”态度并存，既认可自己的附属身份，又渴望新鲜事物，但这一层面的矛盾双方并不对立，而是呼应了当时社会“新女性”的标准。研究薛绍徽的《八十日环游记》，不仅有助于了解当时的社会背景和女性意识主体，而且也有助于了解当时的新旧社会思想冲击下薛的处理方式和翻译方式。
Xue Shaohui, a talented woman in the late Qing Dynasty, was a rare excellent female translator in modern Chinese society. Xue and her husband Chen Shoupeng jointly translated science fiction Around the World in Eighty Days from Verne, becoming the earliest Chinese translators of Verne’s science fiction. The novel was translated by Chen Shoupeng and written down by Xue Shaohui. From the translation of Around the World in Eighty Days, Xue’s translation is both faithful and creative, which is faithful to the original text with subjective creativity. This way can also explore the “contradiction” in the female consciousness: she actively embraced Western knowledge, but also resisted these theories with a Confucian moral system; she supported feminine but abiding by women’s morals. The translator’s “conservative and open” attitude coexist, which not only recognizes her subsidiary status but also yearns for new things. However, the two sides are not opposite, and are integrated by the translator, echoing the standard of “new woman” in the society at that time. The study of Xue’s Around the World in Eighty Days is not only helpful to understand the social background and the subject of female consciousness, but also beneficial to understand of Xue’s handling and translation methods under the impact of the old and new social thoughts at that time.
