摘要

摘要本文主要研究法律语言的翻译以及现代中国法律语言作为翻译法律语言的发展。它首先描述了中国在19世纪末和20世纪初经历了巨大的和前所未有的社会和政治变革，包括法律变革的历史背景。然后讨论了翻译如何在我们今天所知的新兴现代中国法律语言中发挥了重要的催化剂作用，将西方的法律、法律实践、法律概念和术语引入中国，并在此过程中通过翻译帮助中国谈判向现代性过渡，创造新的法律语言和法律制度。它还考虑了跨语言和跨文化交流中的问题以及理解翻译的中国法律语言。

Translation as a Catalyst in the Development of Modern Chinese Legal Language

Abstract This paper focuses on the translation of legal language and the development of modern Chinese legal language as a translated legal language. It first describes the historical contexts in which China underwent enormous and unprecedented social and political changes including changes to law in the late 1800s and early 1900s. It then discusses how translation played an important catalyst role in introducing Western law, legal practices, legal concepts and terminology in the emerging modern Chinese legal language as we know it today, and in the process, lent a helping hand in negotiating China’s transition to modernity through translation and creating a new legal language and legal system. It also considers the issues in translingual and cross-cultural communication and understanding translated Chinese legal language.
