摘　　要：幽默是创作文学作品的重要艺术手段,在翻译时,需要给予准确恰当的处理。迄今为止,译界对文学幽默及其翻译的认识仍有值得深入探讨的空间。本文从“乖讹论”出发,阐释文学幽默的认知原理和创作手段;在此基础上,选取《酒国》的幽默片段,对比葛浩文的译文,评析其译文是否达到与原文同等的幽默效果。本文旨在揭示文学幽默的特征和认知机理,对文学幽默的可译性进行理性的分析和判断。Humorous expression is one of the artistic means to achieve a unique style in literary works and its translation needs to be dealt with properly. However, up to now there remains much room for exploring further the nature of literary humor and its translation. Accordingly, this paper, starting with the theory of incongruity, attempts to explain the literary humor and its cognitive mechanism. Thereafter, samples of both Chinese and their English translation are taken from The Republic of Wine for a comparative study to illustrate whether the English translation can represent the humorous tone of the original. The study is intended to reveal the nature and cognitive mechanism of literary humor so that we are informed of a more insightful view on the translatability of literary humor.
