AI 摘要

This article introduces the translation and research process of Mongolian literature in China, which can be divided into three periods: the development period from the 1950s to the 1960s, the stagnation period from the 1960s to the 1980s, and the recovery period from the 1990s to the 2020s. After the 1980s and 1990s, there were relatively few translations and introductions of contemporary Mongolian literature in China. Ba Rahab Surong is a famous contemporary poet in Mongolia. He was born in 1944 and won important literary awards in Mongolia in 1990, 1998, and 2003. His creative career lasted for 57 years, with a total of 5 collections of works and 37 plays. His son Hasar compiled and published the "Ba La Habasurong Works Collection" in 2019, which includes 300 poems. Professor Wu Naqin from the Institute of Ethnic Literature of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences highly praised Ba Lahbasulong, believing that if he were to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, it would be an honor for Mongolian language poetry.

1、 Ba Lahasurong's works are classics of nomadic literature

In depth exploration of the poetry creation of Mongolian writer Ba Rahab Surong, emphasizing that his works are classic representatives of nomadic literature. Ba La Habasurong's poetry themes often involve love, nostalgia for his mother, and longing for his hometown, which are deeply rooted in nomadic culture. His creative inspiration comes from the Mongolian way of life and respect for nature, which has shaped the thinking and values of the Mongolian people. The mobility, vulnerability, and dispersion characteristics of the nomadic economy are reflected in the works of Ba La Habasurong, such as the emphasis on family and kinship. His poetry not only praises hometown, family and love, but also contains philosophical insights from life and beautiful language. Ba La Habasurong believes that poetry should be a pursuit of the soul, rich in philosophy, reflecting real life, and emphasizing precise language expression. His poetry creation constantly innovates in form, subverting traditional poetic forms and having a profound impact on the development of Mongolian poetry. Ba La Habasurong's works have been translated into multiple languages and are widely popular internationally, but further research on him is needed domestically.

2、 Translation, Introduction, and Research Status of Ba La Habasu Rong's Works in China

Ba La Habasurong's works have been introduced to China since 1985, mainly concentrated between 1985 and 1999, and introduced to Chinese readers through various publications, totaling 185 poems. The "Green Grassland of Boer" has been included in the compulsory Mongolian language curriculum for middle schools. Although the work has received attention, its dissemination is limited and its influence is not significant. There are two main ways to translate and publish: Chinese translation and traditional Mongolian transcription. In terms of Chinese translation, the appendix of Shi Xicheng's "Modern Literature of Mongolia" introduces the personal experience and long poem "My Three Generations of History" by Ba Rahab Surong. Hassen's translation of "Selected Poems of Ba Rahab Surong" is the first Chinese translation, which includes 113 poems and the play "The Land Without Seals". It was added, deleted, and reprinted in 2020. The "Selected Poems of Mongolia" compiled by Chen Ganglong includes three poems by Ba Rahab Surong. In terms of traditional Mongolian transcription, two novels and works such as "Selected Mongolian Love Poems" have been published. There is insufficient research on Ba La Habasurong in China, mainly focusing on works from the 1950s and 1960s, with relatively few translations of works from the 1990s onwards. The compiler of Hassan's "Selected Poems of Ba La Habasurong" explained the difficulties in the translation process and the characteristics of the poet's poetry in the text. The article by Wu Naqin and Ajing analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the translation and pointed out the issue of cultural misreading in the translation. The works of Wen Ying and Bao Le Er analyzed the translation from the perspective of translation studies and believed that the translator retained the style of the original work. Overall, the Chinese translation and research of Ba La Habasurong's works are still far from sufficient in China and need further expansion.

3、 Prospects for the Study of Ba La Habasurong's Works

Emphasis was placed on the importance and urgency of translating and studying the works of Mongolian writer Ba Rahab Surong into Chinese. It is pointed out that there is a gap in the translation, introduction, and research of Ba La Habasurong's works, which requires the joint efforts of translation workers and scholars. The 2024 conference on the translation and publication of classic works between China and Mongolia provides an important opportunity for the translation and introduction of Mongolian literature into China. Ba La Habasurong is a prolific poet whose works cover poetry, drama, opera books, etc., but domestic readers have limited understanding of him. Therefore, the translation of poetry by Ba La Habasu Rong is urgently needed. His poetry deeply reflects the life and nomadic culture of the Mongolian people. In addition to translation, it is also necessary to expand the depth and breadth of research on the works of Ba La Habasurong. At present, domestic research is weak, mostly focused on country specific studies and scattered translation stages. The study of Ba La Habasurong's works should be deeply rooted from the perspectives of comparative literature, translation theory, etc., involving internal research on language, structure, aesthetics, as well as external research on society, politics, culture, etc. In terms of internal research, parallel studies of Mongolian and Chinese texts can be conducted to analyze translation differences from the perspective of reception studies. In terms of external research, both diachronic and synchronic studies can be conducted. Based on a cross-cultural perspective, the object of literary research can be the original work, translator, or the work itself, requiring meticulous examination. The study of Ba La Habasurong's works is of great significance and helps readers truly understand this poet. His works, based on the tradition of poeticization, endow objects with cultural connotations that go beyond material value.
