摘要：
本研究旨在探討臺灣兒童文學的現有模板（existing models）。討論的文本涵蓋1954年英國的動畫《動物農莊》以及四部有注音符號的中譯本。當複雜的政治寓言變成適合兒童讀者／觀眾的作品，其中的改變即顯現兒童文學的特色，亦即顯露現有兒童文學模板的特色。本研究借用了三組理論，包含以Linda Hutcheon的電影改編理論詮釋改編的特性和社會歷史框架的重要性，帶出動畫的社會歷史框架的討論；以Itamar Evan-Zohar的多元系統理論詮釋文學多元系統的結構；將Zohar Shavit對於兒童文學翻譯的研究直接使用在中譯本的討論上。經由分析後發現，動畫與中譯本的共同性多於差異性，唯二顯著的差異就是兩者對於政治有不同的態度，以及因為媒介不同而產生表達方式的歧異。
關鍵詞：《動物農莊》、兒童文學、文學多元系統、給兒童的譯作

Abstract：
This study explores the existing models of children’s literature. The texts examined are the 1954 British animated film adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm, made by John Halas and Joy Batchelor, and four Chinese translations for children published in the 1990s and 2000s. For young audiences, complex political allegories must be modified to ensure that they are appropriate and understandable. These necessary changes highlight the features that distinguish children’s literature from adults’ and characterize the existing models of children’s literature. This study employs three theories to analyze the texts. Linda Hutcheon’s study on adaptation justifies the discussion of the socio-historical context of the animated film; Itamar Evan-Zohar’s polysystem theory is employed to discuss the basic structure of the literary polysystem, which connects the discussions of the animated film and the Chinese translations. Analysis of the translations and the animated film reveals their similar features; the two major differences are their political tendencies and modes of representation.
