摘　　要：读者不是译文的消极消费者,而是译文意义的能动建构者。读者意识是译者以读者视角观照翻译、使翻译行为围绕读者中心逐步向前推进的心理机制。宇文所安的读者意识体现在内容导向、沟通途径、主流诗学和读者接受四个方面,表现为材料选择的贴近意识、思想交流的贴心意识、表达习惯的贴合意识、服务读者的体贴意识。得益于读者意识,宇文所安充分履行了译者的职责,妥善处理了译者、作者和读者的三方关系,促进了《文心雕龙》在英语世界的接受与传播。中国文论要走向世界,译者的翻译能力是前提与基础,而读者意识是确保译者翻译能力得到充分展示的思想保证。读者意识有助于译文走进读者的心灵世界,有利于译文在译入语文化语境的进一步传播。Readers are not passive consumers of translated texts but active constructors of meaning.Reader consciousness refers to the psychological mechanism through which translators adopt a reader-oriented perspective and progressively advance their translation practices.Stephen Owen’s reader consciousness is reflected in content orientation,communication channels,mainstream poetics,and reader reception.It manifests as an awareness of selecting materials that resonate with readers,a consideration for intimate thought exchange,an alignment with expressive habits,and a focus on catering to readers’needs.Thanks to reader consciousness,Stephen Owen fulfills the responsibilities of a translator and effectively manages the tripartite relation-ship between translator,author,and reader,thereby promoting the acceptance and dissemination of Wenxin Diaolong in the English-speaking world.For Chinese literary theory to go global,translators’translation abilities are a prerequisite,and reader consciousness ensures that these abilities are fully showcased.Reader consciousness helps translated texts penetrate the readers’inner world and facilitates their further dissemination within the target language’s cultural context.
