中 文 摘 要 ： 本計畫名稱為：「尋找賽先生的爸爸：儒勒‧爾納的晚清譯
本研究」。計畫旨在探討凡爾納的晚清譯本特色，以瞭解晚
清翻譯小說家如何將’科學’與’小說’結合。知識的傳遞
與接受不是一蹴而就的，表面上呈現的可能是排斥，但表面
下往往是一點一滴的滲透。晚清西方科學小說的傳入及流行
也是如此。本研究計畫將從讀者較為熟悉的作者梁啟超與魯
迅所翻譯凡爾納的三部作品著手再拓展至讀者們較不熟悉的
其他文本，希望能夠對晚清凡爾納的翻譯作品作一全面性的
比較與分析。筆者將嘗試回答以下問題：凡爾納的晚清科學
小說譯本具有何種面貌？與日譯本，英譯本，甚至法文原著
有何不同？西方科學小說話語如何在晚清讀者群中形成、晚
清文人和翻譯者，報刊雜誌又如何參與製造？翻譯者如何在
科學小說中取得「科學―說」的平衡？此課題的研究重要性
有三：一為彌補研究晚清小說領域中關於翻譯科學小說之闕
如。第二，突顯凡爾納的晚清譯本與原著意義的偏離，以及
這種偏離所具的思想史意義。第三，接續晚清小說的研究成
果，使對近代小說的發展，有一較全面性的認識。本計畫成
果將以英文撰寫。
中文關鍵詞： 晚清小說，科學小說，凡爾納
英 文 摘 要 ： In this project, I will do a comparative study of at
least ten late Qing translations of Jules Verne’s
science
fiction novels. These science fiction novels include
Around the World in Eighty Days (1873), Twenty
Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870), From Earth to
the Moon (1865), A Journey to the Center of the Earth
(1864), The Begum’s Millions (1879), three
renditions of Five Weeks in a Balloon (1863), Michael
Strogoff (1876) and The Mysterious Island (1874). I
will analyze how late Qing translators manipulated
these texts, used narrative techniques of traditional
Chinese fiction that late Qing readers were familiar
with to introduce Western thought. I will try to
answer the following questions: What are the
differences between Verne’s original works and
Chinese translations? How did late Qing translators
balance science and fiction in these translations?
How did late Qing translators, readers, and
publishing companies jointly participate in the
creation of a Chinese science fiction discourse?
The contribution of this project includes the
following: first, it will redress the weakness of
translation study in the current research of late
Qing fiction study. Second, by comparing and
contrasting Verne’s English and Chinese
translations, it will show how greatly and
deliberately late Qing translated novels are
distorted and manipulated by late Qing translators.
And thirdly, it will contribute to having a more
comprehensive understanding of late Qing fiction.
The research paper will be written in English.
報告內容
前言
在品目繁多的晚清小說各類翻譯小說中，
「科學小說」無疑極為特殊且值得
關注。原因是它是一不同於傳統說部之作的類型小說，為當時中國讀者開啟了迥
異的閱讀視界；另方面，晚清的有識之士借用中國傳統的“格致”作為自然科學
的代名詞，恰恰呼應了當時憧憬「想像中國」
、強調科 學 救 國 的社會現實，並為
中國提供具體的富強參考範式。
研究目的
雖然已有許多當代中國學者研究晚清的翻譯小說，很可惜的是，在台灣，鮮
少有研究晚清小說的學者運用不同的文學批評方法，翻譯理論，讀者理論處理晚
清翻譯小說特別是科學小說這一文類的議題。單一作者原著與中譯本互文性的研
究更是少之又少。在臺灣，以晚清科學小說為題目的碩士論文只有一篇為林健群
於 1997 年獲得國立中正大學中國文學研究所碩士的《晚清科幻小說研究
(1904-1911) 》
，該論文以晚清作家創作的科學小說為研究對象，並未分析任何的
翻譯科學小說。至於博士論文至今仍然掛零。碩士論文以凡爾納為研究對象者亦
只有一篇，為國立臺灣師範大學翻譯研究所碩士生陳明哲所撰《凡爾納科幻小說
中文譯本研究--以《地底旅行》為例》該論文以不到五頁之篇幅，引用幾句英譯
本與中譯本作為對照，實在談不上譯本比較，學術價值甚低。臺灣關於凡爾納譯
本研究的學術期刊論文更少，僅有一篇。筆者發現以英文撰寫關於晚清科學小說
翻譯作品的學術論文僅有一篇。
因此筆者此研究計畫將以晚清翻譯科學小說中最具代表性的外國作家儒
勒‧凡爾納 (Jules Verne 1828- 1905) 之英譯本與中譯本作比較文學，翻譯文學，
晚清文學，文化研究跨學科的研究。
文獻探討
就筆者所知，到目前為止尚未有一本專門研究晚清翻譯小說的專書。早期介
紹晚清域外文學譯介活動的篇幅幾乎都是依附在中國文學史上。由於依附於文學
史，翻譯文學只散落其中章節，稍微詳細的介紹也主要集中在名氣響亮的嚴復，
林紓，周桂笙的等少數幾人的身上。近十幾年來，中國學者對晚清域外文學譯介
的研究有蓬勃發展之勢，主要的論述方式是嘗試將翻譯文學從中國文學史中獨立
出來。
幾乎所有的中文期刊論文都從單方面晚清中譯本的分析著手，很少將英譯本
或者是日譯本與晚清譯本同時比較。以上眾多期刊論文中與凡爾納的晚清中譯本
有關者不到五篇。
雖然已有許多當代中國學者研究晚清的翻譯小說，很可惜的是，在台灣，鮮
少有研究晚清小說的學者運用不同的文學批評方法，翻譯理論，讀者理論處理晚
清翻譯小說特別是科學小說這一文類的議題。單一作者原著與中譯本互文性的研
究更是少之又少。

研究方法
本研究主要以勒弗菲爾 (André Lefevere, 1945-1996) 在《翻譯，重寫與操縱》
(Translation, Rewriting and the Manipulation) 一書中提出的理論為主、以目的學
派理論為輔加以分析，勒弗菲爾認為翻譯必定受譯者或當權者的意識形態與詩學
觀的支配，必定不能真確地反映源文的面貌，如此一來，翻譯即是「重寫」
，
「重
寫」即「操縱」
，本研究探討凡爾納的晚清譯本如何受到「贊助者」
（包含中國當
時社會風氣、讀者群等）
、
「譯者意識形態」的影響、如何受到目的論制約，才讓
凡爾納筆下的人物搖身一變傳播西學的代言人。
結果與討論
筆者發現 1900-1915 年翻譯凡爾納的所有作品，在選材上的明顯傾向就是偏
重旅行探險類作品。這些作品不論譯本總數量還是重譯本數量都比幻想色彩濃厚
的未來科技題材多得多如《八十日環遊記》
《十五小豪傑》
《海底旅行》
《地心旅
行》
《秘密海島》
《秘密使者》等。筆者發現還有一個重要的因素影響凡爾納科學
小說的接受，即以線性的時間觀為基礎的歷史進步論的傳播。
筆者發現譯者以啟蒙者身份借凡爾納小說中的神奇想像勾畫未來的美好圖
景,作為清末改革成功後的政治許諾。凡爾納科學小說經過了譯者的大筆刪削和
各種以中化西的修改:如人名、地名、人物行為舉止一律中國化,改變敍事人稱、
採用章回體敍述等。凡爾納的作品,既為當時國人提供了強國夢的構成要素,又激
發了強國夢的產生。從這個意義上講,真正傳承了譯本科學小說(不是原著)精神
實質的不是當時的創作科學小說,而是幻想中國未來強盛前景的理想小說。這些
小說講到中國未來的強盛狀況,不出“科技昌明,國力強盛”的範圍,甚至流露出
一種稱霸世界的霸權思想。
關於科學小說的讀者構成及其接受背景方面 ，筆者發現科學小說的讀者不
可能是小說界革命宣導者最初的理想讀者。真正的讀者群可能只是稍微接觸過新
式學問，至少是對西學稍有瞭解的讀書人。
建議
筆者發現譯介凡爾納的作品對中國科學小說具有開創性的歷史意義。在大量
的科學小說譯著薰染下，中國作家開始了科學小說創作。1904 年在《繡像小說》
雜誌上連載了署名荒江釣叟的原創科學小說《月球殖民地》被成為第一部具有西
方科學小說特色的中國科學小說。後來中國陸續出現了幾十篇科學小說創作作
品。此研究進一步發展之可能性除了繼續研究晚清科學小說源文與譯文外，還可

國人對凡爾納的研究十分落後。像這樣的重要作家對其作些專題研究乃
是十分必要的。筆者研究成果在學術期刊發表“
The Good, the Bad, and the
Beautiful: A Study of Late Qing Translation of Jules Verne’
s Around the World in
Eighty Days.”為台灣學界少數研究凡爾納之論文。筆者發現譯者以啟蒙者身份
借凡爾納小說中的神奇想像勾畫未來的美好圖景,作為清末改革成功後的政治許
諾。從這個意義上講,真正傳承了譯本科學小說(不是原著)精神實質的不是當時
的創作科學小說,而是幻想中國未來強盛前景的理想小說。這些小說講到中國未
來的強盛狀況,不出“科技昌明,國力強盛”的範圍,甚至流露出一種稱霸世界的
霸權思想。此研究進一步發展之可能性除了繼續研究晚清科學小說源文與譯文
