第一篇：萬圣節(jié)的由來--中英雙語

羅伯特·布里奇 Robert Bridges-A School Portrait

I had not visited Eton for many years, when one day passing from the Fellow’s Library into the Gallery I caught sight of the portrait of my school-friend Digby Dolben hanging just without the door among our most distinguished contemporaries.I was wholly arrested, and as I stood gazing on it, my companion asked me if I knew who it was.I was thinking that, beyond a few whom I could name, I must be almost the only person who would know.Far memories of my boyhood were crowding freshly upon me: he was standing again beside me in the eager promise of his youth;I could hear his voice;nothing of him was changed;while I, wrap from him in a confused mist of time, was wondering what he would think, could he know that at this actual moment he would have been dead thirty years, and that his memory would be thus preserved and honored in the beloved school, where his delicate spirit had been so strangely troubled.This portrait-gallery of old Etonians is very select: preeminent distinction of birth or merit may win you a place there, or again official connection with the school, which right loves to keep up an unbroken panorama of its teachers, and to vivify its annals with the faces and figures of the personalities who carried on its traditions.But how came Dolben there? It was because he was a poet,--that I knew;--and yet his poems were not known they were jealously guarded by his family and a few friends: indeed such of his poems as could have come to the eyes of the authorities who sanctioned this memorial would not justify it.There was another reason;and the portrait bears its won credentials;for though you might not perhaps divine the poet in it, you can see the saint, the soul rapt in contemplation, the habit of stainless life, of devotion, of enthusiasm for high ideals.Such a being must have stood out conspicuously among his fellows;the facts of his life would have been the ground of the faith in his genius;and when his early death endeared and sanctified his memory, loving grief would generously grant him the laurels which he had never worn.我已有多年未訪問伊頓公學(xué)；當(dāng)有一天從Fellow’s Library [1] 經(jīng)過進(jìn)入陳列室時(shí)，我看到我的校友Digby Dolben [2] 的肖像與我們這個(gè)時(shí)代最卓越的人的肖像掛在了一起。我完全被吸引住了，而當(dāng)我駐足凝視它時(shí)，我的同伴問我是否知道他是誰。我想，除了幾個(gè)我記得起名字的人之外，我?guī)缀跻欢ㄊ俏ㄒ恢赖娜肆恕Ｉ倌陼r(shí)代的遙遠(yuǎn)記憶就像才發(fā)生一樣向我簇?fù)矶鴣恚核忠淮握驹谖疑砼裕贻p、躊躇滿志；我仿佛能聽到他的聲音，他一點(diǎn)也沒變；然而，當(dāng)我被關(guān)于他的時(shí)間之霧包圍時(shí)，我好奇他會(huì)怎么想，他是否知道在他去世30年后的這一刻，他的記憶會(huì)因此得以保存并受人敬仰，就在這所名校中，在他微妙的靈魂一度被奇怪地困擾的地方。這個(gè)老伊頓學(xué)生肖像的陳列館中掛出的肖像是經(jīng)過精挑細(xì)選的：出身顯赫、品格高貴可以為你在那贏得一個(gè)席位，或者在畢業(yè)后與學(xué)校有官方上的聯(lián)系——他們熱衷于維持師生之間不變的全景畫，熱衷于讓那些與繼承學(xué)校傳統(tǒng)的面貌形象有關(guān)的校史記錄保持鮮活。但，Dolben的肖像為什么會(huì)在那呢？因?yàn)樗且粋€(gè)詩人？——這我知道，但他的詩歌鮮為人知，都被家人和少數(shù)幾個(gè)朋友小心翼翼地保存了起來。即使這些數(shù)量稀少的作品能入得了負(fù)責(zé)挑選肖像的權(quán)威人士的法眼，也并不足以讓他名列其中。還有另外一個(gè)原因，肖像就是一種證明的效力，或許你無法看出他是詩人，但你卻可以看到圣人的特質(zhì)：靈魂沉浸于深思、純潔無暇、對崇高理想滿懷熱情與獻(xiàn)身精神。這樣的特征一定使他在同齡人中出類拔萃；他的生活經(jīng)歷足以讓我們相信他是一位天賦秉異的才人。而當(dāng)他的英年早逝洗凈了記憶的塵埃并喚醒了世人的愛慕之時(shí)，吝愛的悲憫將會(huì)慷慨的

賦予他未曾擁有的桂冠。

[1] Fellow’s Library位于劍橋大學(xué)耶穌學(xué)院，建于1676-77 年。

Robert Bridges 譯文賞析：

1、原文：“Far memories of my boyhood were crowding freshly upon me: he was standing again beside me in the eager promise of his youth。”

譯文：“少年時(shí)代的遙遠(yuǎn)記憶就像才發(fā)生一樣向我簇?fù)矶鴣恚核忠淮握驹谖疑砼裕贻p、躊躇滿志。“

這句翻譯的很好。首先，作者把 ”freshly“ 譯為”像才發(fā)生一樣“，而我認(rèn)為這一點(diǎn)比劉士聰先生譯為”鮮活地涌進(jìn)“更為合理。在漢語里用“鮮活地”顯得很奇怪，因?yàn)椤磅r活地”修飾后面的動(dòng)作“涌進(jìn)”，涌進(jìn)不能說是“鮮活”，只能說是“迅速地”或者“大量地”。其次，”in the eager promise of his youth”譯為“年輕、躊躇滿志”也很巧妙。譯者并沒有死板得按照英文的語法順序，而事實(shí)上這樣做也根本行不通。把 ”youth” 譯為漢語中的“年輕”，名詞轉(zhuǎn)化為形容詞，而“eager promise”在理解意義的基礎(chǔ)上找出對應(yīng)的漢語四字結(jié)構(gòu)，既語義準(zhǔn)確，又沒有丟掉英文的文筆。劉士聰先生譯為“煥發(fā)著青春的風(fēng)采”，顯得有些平淡無味。

2、原文：while I, wrap from him in a confused mist of time, was wondering what he would think, could he know that at this actual moment he would have been dead thirty years, and that his memory would be thus preserved and honored in the beloved school, where his delicate spirit had been so strangely troubled.譯文：然而，當(dāng)我被關(guān)于他的時(shí)間之霧包圍時(shí)，我好奇他會(huì)怎么想，他是否知道在他去世30年后的這一刻，他的記憶會(huì)因此得以保存并受人敬仰，就在這所名校中，在他微妙的靈魂一度被奇怪地困擾的地方。

我認(rèn)為這部分翻譯的有失妥當(dāng)，可以參照劉士聰先生譯文：“同時(shí)我在尋思著，因?yàn)榕c他之間相隔一段宛若迷霧的年月，假如他知道在這一時(shí)刻他已經(jīng)死了三十年，他可愛的母校在以這樣的方式紀(jì)念他，給他這樣高的榮譽(yù)，而他上學(xué)時(shí)，他脆弱的心靈曾經(jīng)莫名其妙地?zé)肋^，他會(huì)作怎樣的感想呢？”

試譯：而我與他相隔迷霧般縈繞的時(shí)間，尋思如果他知道此時(shí)他已逝世三十年，并被他所深愛的母校——他的脆弱靈魂曾感受無端困惑的地方——緬懷和敬仰，他會(huì)怎么想。

3、原文：…which right loves to keep up an unbroken panorama of its teachers, and to vivify its annals with the faces and figures of the personalities who carried on its traditions.譯文：他們熱衷于維持師生之間不變的全景畫，熱衷于讓那些與繼承學(xué)校傳統(tǒng)的面貌形象有關(guān)的校史記錄保持鮮活。

這一句話譯者自己也沒有理解原文意思，所以翻譯出來就更加抽象難懂。可以參照劉士聰譯文：“而校方也希望完整地再現(xiàn)教師隊(duì)伍的全貌，使那些保持了學(xué)校傳統(tǒng)的名人形象構(gòu)成的校史有生氣。”

第五篇：美國萬圣節(jié)的由來

中國有吃餃子的習(xí)俗，有放鞭炮的習(xí)俗。。。美國的萬圣節(jié)，是在十月的最后一天，那天，與圣誕節(jié)相比差不到哪去。在今天的美國和加拿大，多姿多彩的萬圣節(jié)(HALLOWE EN)恐怕是僅次于圣誕節(jié)的消費(fèi)最多的節(jié)日了。然而這一歷史悠久的節(jié)日卻根出于歐洲大陸。兩千多年前，歐洲的天主教會(huì)把十一月一日定為天下圣徒之日(ALLHALLOWSDAY)。HALLOW即圣徒之意。傳說自公元前五百年，居住在當(dāng)今中歐愛爾蘭、蘇格蘭等地的凱爾特人(CELTS)把這節(jié)日往前移了一天，即十月三十一日。他們認(rèn)為該日是夏天正式結(jié)束的日子，也就是新年伊始，嚴(yán)酷的冬季開始的一天。那時(shí)人們相信，故人的亡魂會(huì)在這一天回到故居地在活人身上找尋生靈，借此再生，而且這是人在死后能獲得再生的唯一希望。而活著的人則懼怕死魂來奪生，于是人們就在這一天熄掉爐火、燭光，讓死魂無法找尋活人，又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂靈嚇走。之后，他們又會(huì)把火種燭光重新燃起，開始新的一年的生活。傳說那時(shí)凱爾特人部落還有在10月31日把活人殺死用以祭奠死人的習(xí)俗。到了公元一世紀(jì)，占領(lǐng)了凱爾特部落領(lǐng)地的羅馬人也漸漸接受了萬圣節(jié)習(xí)俗，但從此廢止了燒活人祭死人的野蠻做法。時(shí)間流逝，萬圣節(jié)的意義逐漸起了變化，變得積極快樂起來，喜慶的意味成了主流。死魂找替身返世的說法也漸漸被摒棄和忘卻。到了今天，象征萬圣節(jié)的形象、圖畫如巫婆、黑貓等，大都有友善可愛和滑稽的臉。萬圣節(jié)傳入美國是在1840年間。當(dāng)時(shí)的愛爾蘭鬧機(jī)荒，造成大批愛爾蘭人移民美國，他們把慶祝萬圣節(jié)的習(xí)俗也帶到了這片土地。萬圣節(jié)的一個(gè)有趣內(nèi)容是TRICKORTREAT，這習(xí)俗卻并非源自愛爾蘭，而是始于公元九世紀(jì)的歐洲基督教會(huì)。那時(shí)的十一月二日，被基督徒們稱為ALLSOULSDAY(萬靈之日)。在該日，信徒們跋涉于僻壤鄉(xiāng)間，挨村挨戶乞討用面粉及葡萄干制成的靈魂之餅。據(jù)說捐贈(zèng)糕餅的人家都相信教會(huì)僧人的祈禱，期待由此得到上帝的佑護(hù)，讓死去的親人早日進(jìn)入天堂。這種挨家乞討的傳統(tǒng)傳至當(dāng)今竟演變成了孩子們提著南瓜燈籠挨家討糖吃的游戲，不能不算是萬圣節(jié)歷史的趣事。另外還有南瓜雕空當(dāng)燈籠的故事。這又是源于古代愛爾蘭。故事是說一個(gè)名叫JACK的人，是個(gè)醉漢且愛惡作劇。一天JACK把惡魔騙上了樹，隨即在樹樁上刻了個(gè)十字，恐嚇惡魔令他不敢下來，然后JACK就與惡魔約法三章，讓惡魔答應(yīng)施法讓JACK永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)犯罪為條件讓他下樹。JACK死后，其靈魂卻既不能上天又不能下地獄，于是他的亡靈只好靠一根小蠟燭照著指引他在天地之間倘佯。在古老的愛爾蘭傳說里，這根小蠟燭是在一根挖空的蘿卜里放著，稱作JACKLANTER NS，而古老的蘿卜燈演變到今天，則是南瓜做的JACK-O-LANTERN了。據(jù)說愛爾蘭人到了美國不久，即發(fā)現(xiàn)南瓜不論從來源和雕刻來說都比蘿卜勝一籌，于是南瓜就成了萬圣節(jié)的寵物。南瓜來說都比蘿卜勝一籌，于是南瓜就成了萬圣節(jié)的寵物。南瓜雕刻及其形象也進(jìn)入了千家萬戶，成為最普遍存在的美國萬圣節(jié)風(fēng)情之一。今天美國人的萬圣節(jié)已今非昔比。生活在美國的多族裔人民，不但都接受了這一具獨(dú)特風(fēng)格的節(jié)日，而且把它加以發(fā)揮，形成美國自己獨(dú)有的萬圣節(jié)。近年，美國人為萬圣節(jié)付出的花費(fèi)平均每年為2.5億，成為僅次于圣誕節(jié)的第二大消費(fèi)節(jié)日。這個(gè)節(jié)日雖說以前不大好,還要把活人燒死(迷信到了極點(diǎn)).但現(xiàn)在,孩子們又可以嚇唬人又可以得到一些糖果,開心的很.
