這麼一本好書,落在知名譯者手中,由國內一大出版社出版, 得到這樣的結果,到底癥結在哪裡?應該好好地算算帳, 因為它反映出國內文史翻譯書的一些問題。 首先說譯者。梁永安是位多產的專業翻譯家,國家圖書館的資料可檢索到 140筆,除了他在台大哲研所的碩論及少數幾筆重出譯作外,含還未列入的1
我教會的小組長送我一本翻譯書 後來我比對英文原著,發現錯誤非常多,於是就把譯本扔掉了。 幾年前我學新約希臘文,買了一本聖經希臘文基礎。 我比對英文原著Basics of Biblical Greek Grammar ,才讀了沒有幾頁,2
我問了英國人,回答如下: The fact that Lenin had not ventured to reward him and the Soviet state had branded him a traitor only reinforced Parvus' disillusionment with Lenin's Russia. (I suspect the implication is that these were the major source of his "disillusionment".)5

這本書是所謂的通俗學術著作。雖說通俗,但嚴守著學術的規範, 該有的引文、註釋以比較簡潔的方式呈現,人事、時空的架構 也按史實井然有序地安排妥當。可惜由於翻譯的錯誤,原本清晰的 架構彷彿落入某種現實扭曲力場 (reality distortion field), 時空及語言的錯亂不時可見。例如:7
原作出來不久我就讀了,因為當年是俄共革命百週年, 這本書得到幾個書獎,頗受矚目。後來在圖書館架上看到中譯本, 隨意翻看了幾章,只憑著還算新鮮的記憶,就發現些離譜的錯誤, 隨手放回架上,沒多注意譯者的背景。 最近聽說 Ivan's War 也出譯本了,還是這個譯者操刀,心想不妙。4
首Po這是一本介紹列寧怎麼樣被德國選上成為扶持對象的故事。 列寧能夠在眾多活動家中出頭無它,比人狠,比人夠冷酷,死硬的堅持自己的信仰,口才 文筆俱佳保證鬥到你不想跟他玩為止。他的政治理念讓同志們都覺得他瘋了,但恰好正是 大家把權力賦予了此人。 不過就個人感覺至少列寧還在「摸著石頭過河」,史達林那套多半不是其想見的。作者說
