This theory constructs a multi-dimensional framework, which includes the historical, social and cultural factors influencing the translation activity.,The first period,What is Gideon Tourys,norm,In his definition, norm is the general criteria accepted by a community. But what is emphasized here is that norm is a,sociological,term, referring to a category applicable to all the aspects of the society, so is to translation, of course.,In Tourys opinion, translation is a kind of activity which involves at least two languages and two cultural traditions. He considers that “translation is,a norm-governed activity,”. Hence, translation is a kind of personal behavior; however, it is not random of accidental at all. Instead, it can be traced and analyzed according to various kinds of norms governing it.,6,The,Principles,of Translational Norms,起始准则,（,initial norms):,译者个人的倾向,初级准则,（,preliminary norms):,决定译文选择的因素以及整个多元体系 中的翻译策略,运作准则,（,operational norms):,实际翻译过程中影响抉择的准则,The application of the norms in the translation,prologue,For us and for our tragedy,Here stooping to your clemency,We beg your hearing patiently.,序诗,今天悲剧上演,谬承,诸位赏脸,还求海量包涵,耐性把戏听完,-Matricial norms,The second period,In the second period, Toury devoted himself to the exploration and construction of descriptive translation studies, the most famous monograph,Descriptive Translation Studies and Beyond,was published in 1995.,Descriptive translation studies,believe that a translation will be any target language text which is presented or regarded as such in a target system, on whatever grounds.,“翻译就是在目的系统当中，表现为翻译或者被认为是翻译的任何一段目的的语文本，不管所根据的理由是什么,”,As Gideon Toury points out, “what constitutes the subject matter of a proper discipline of translation studies are,observable or reconstructable facts of real life,rather than merely speculative entities resulting from preconceived hypotheses and theoretical models” (Toury 1995:1),11,Examples of the Descriptive Translation Studies,原文,：,Lumber and boat and junk yard.
