摘　　要：语料库技术为隐喻与隐喻翻译研究提供了真实客观的研究路径。以自建的小型外交话语汉英平行语料库为辅助,采用数据定量统计和案例定性分析相结合的研究方法,考察了中国外交话语中常用的隐喻类型和英译策略。可以发现:外交话语中频繁地使用旅途隐喻、建筑隐喻和人类隐喻等隐喻类型,展现积极正面的大国外交形象;译者倾向于选择直译隐喻、翻译隐喻意义、用英语中的隐喻表达替换和省略不译这四种翻译策略;受译者修辞意识的影响,在充分了解中西方认知体验差异以及隐喻使用习惯的基础上,选择合适的翻译策略,有助于实现外交话语中的“有效交流”。The development of corpus provides an authentic and objective approach for metaphor and metaphor translation.Based on the self-built Chinese-English parallel corpus of China’s diplomatic discourse,with a combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis,this paper probes into the frequently-used metaphor categories and their translation strategies.It is found that:journey metaphor,construction metaphor and human metaphor are frequently used in diplomatic discourse to present a positive image of China as a major country;reproducing the same image through literal translation,converting Chinese metaphor into its sense,replacing Chinese metaphor with English metaphor and deleting the redundant metaphor are often employed by translators;choosing the appropriate metaphor translation strategies are influenced by translators’rhetorical awareness,which is helpful to achieve the effective communication of China’s diplomatic discourse.
