“翻译是艺术的高级形式。绘画必须栩栩如生，跃然纸上；音乐必须抑扬顿挫，富有旋律；雕刻必须精镂细刻，曲尽其妙。而翻译既需要绘画之真实，又需要音乐之旋律，更需要雕刻之匠心。这不是技术，而是艺术，而是精湛的综合性艺术。”----莫里逊（morrison）（一）翻译的人物言论
1.翻译简史
东汉安世高，大规模从事译经活动

2.三大翻译家：
①鸠摩罗什，印度，对翻译方法及理论有深入的研究，提倡译者署名以负文责。最早提出了如何表现原文文体与语趣的重要问题。“鸠摩罗什者，译界第一流宗匠也”----梁启超
②真谛，西印度，译了49部经论，其中《摄大乘论》影响较大。
③玄奘，贞观时期，梵译汉，汉（老子著作的一部分）译梵，是第一个向国外介绍汉文著作的中国人。其译场比以前要健全和严密得多，译经质量也很高。

3.道安，东晋，“五失本，三不易”。
4.慧远，东晋，“简繁理秽，以详其中”。
5.彦琮，隋初，《辩证论》：“八备说”。
6.林纾（琴南），清末，不懂外语，与人合作共译180余中西洋小说。
7.严复，清末，明确提出翻译标准的第一人。
在《天演论》卷首的《译例言》中提出“信达雅”的翻译标准。“译事三难：求其信，已大难已。顾信矣不达，虽译尤不译也，则达尚焉。海通以来，象寄之才，随地多有；而任取一书，责其能与于斯二矣，则已寡矣。其故在浅尝，一也；偏至，二也；辨之者少，三也。”
8.矛盾：“直译”、“神韵”。
9.朱自清：“译诗”。
10.郭沫若：“媒婆”论、“风韵”论。
11.瞿秋白：翻译必须“非常忠实”，追求“精确”；“语言”与“言语”的异同。

The speed of penetration of this medium into every commercial media is almost incomprehensible to even the most ardent cyber-enthusiasts. Not since the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century has development so dramatically altered the path of human behavior. The possibilities of further developments seem literally without limits. Future cyber applications to business, not even explored, seem to have no boundaries. Nor are these developments restricted to interface with current desktop and laptop computers. The increasing appearance of wireless appliances, such as cellular phones, not to mention the infinite means of transmitting and distributing messages from one point to another and the continuing miniaturization of equipment, promise to alter our means of doing commerce throughout the world. Who knows what other, never before invented communication media will surface tomorrow and in the next few years? The impact of this technical revolution is having on retail commerce and on the means we have come to associate with traditional retail marketing is felt more and more every day. It is likely to revolutionize the relationships marketers have with retailers, their channels of distribution, their suppliers, their advertising agencies and their ultimate consumers. Marketers will need to examine how the rocketing cyberspace developments will affect their
