摘　　要：汉学家群体是向世界引介中国文学的中坚力量。其中以伯顿·华兹生为代表的汉学家选择以跨国旅居的方式开展翻译活动,在异国他乡作为传递者和沟通者在引介中国文学和文化上发挥了重要作用。为了深入认识这类汉学家,本文借用西方术语“diaspora”提出“散居译者”概念,并以华兹生及其典籍翻译活动为例,结合布尔迪厄社会学理论,考察了散居体验和文化记忆对其翻译惯习的影响,这主要体现在翻译选材、翻译策略以及文献参考方面。从中可以看出散居译者在拓展翻译活动空间、累积资本、参考异域文献、协调异化与可达性之间的关系等方面具备独特优势,能够在中译外活动中发挥更加积极的作用。Sinologists act as the main force in promoting Chinese culture and literature to the world.Many of them,typified by American sinologist Burton Watson,choose to live abroad engaging in translation activities,and have played an important role as transmitters and communicators in foreign countries.In order to have a better understanding of these sinologists and their translation activities,this paper puts forward the concept of“diasporic translator”,and then takes Burton Watson as an example to discuss the influence of diasporic experiences on his translation activities by drawing on Bourdieu's sociology.It's found that Watson's diasporic experiences and cultural memory have greatly shaped his translation habitus,which is mainly embodied in his choice of the source texts,translation strategies and references.It's illustrated that the diasporic translators have advantage in expanding the space of translation activities,accumucating capital,drawing on foreign scholarship,harmonizing foreignization,and so forth,and that they can play a positive role in promoting the translation from Chinese into foreign languages.
