第一篇：万圣节的由来--中英双语
罗伯特·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.我已有多年未访问伊顿公学；当有一天从Fellow’s Library [1] 经过进入陈列室时，我看到我的校友Digby Dolben [2] 的肖像与我们这个时代最卓越的人的肖像挂在了一起。我完全被吸引住了，而当我驻足凝视它时，我的同伴问我是否知道他是谁。我想，除了几个我记得起名字的人之外，我几乎一定是唯一知道的人了。少年时代的遥远记忆就像才发生一样向我簇拥而来：他又一次站在我身旁，年轻、踌躇满志；我仿佛能听到他的声音，他一点也没变；然而，当我被关于他的时间之雾包围时，我好奇他会怎么想，他是否知道在他去世30年后的这一刻，他的记忆会因此得以保存并受人敬仰，就在这所名校中，在他微妙的灵魂一度被奇怪地困扰的地方。这个老伊顿学生肖像的陈列馆中挂出的肖像是经过精挑细选的：出身显赫、品格高贵可以为你在那赢得一个席位，或者在毕业后与学校有官方上的联系——他们热衷于维持师生之间不变的全景画，热衷于让那些与继承学校传统的面貌形象有关的校史记录保持鲜活。但，Dolben的肖像为什么会在那呢？因为他是一个诗人？——这我知道，但他的诗歌鲜为人知，都被家人和少数几个朋友小心翼翼地保存了起来。即使这些数量稀少的作品能入得了负责挑选肖像的权威人士的法眼，也并不足以让他名列其中。还有另外一个原因，肖像就是一种证明的效力，或许你无法看出他是诗人，但你却可以看到圣人的特质：灵魂沉浸于深思、纯洁无暇、对崇高理想满怀热情与献身精神。这样的特征一定使他在同龄人中出类拔萃；他的生活经历足以让我们相信他是一位天赋秉异的才人。而当他的英年早逝洗净了记忆的尘埃并唤醒了世人的爱慕之时，吝爱的悲悯将会慷慨的
赋予他未曾拥有的桂冠。
注：
[1] Fellow’s Library位于剑桥大学耶稣学院，建于1676-77 年。
[2] Digby Dolben，罗伯特·布里奇的堂兄弟，英国诗人，于1867年6月28日溺水而卒。
Robert Bridges 译文赏析：
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。”
译文：“少年时代的遥远记忆就像才发生一样向我簇拥而来：他又一次站在我身旁，年轻、踌躇满志。“
这句翻译的很好。首先，作者把 ”freshly“ 译为”像才发生一样“，而我认为这一点比刘士聪先生译为”鲜活地涌进“更为合理。在汉语里用“鲜活地”显得很奇怪，因为“鲜活地”修饰后面的动作“涌进”，涌进不能说是“鲜活”，只能说是“迅速地”或者“大量地”。其次，”in the eager promise of his youth”译为“年轻、踌躇满志”也很巧妙。译者并没有死板得按照英文的语法顺序，而事实上这样做也根本行不通。把 ”youth” 译为汉语中的“年轻”，名词转化为形容词，而“eager promise”在理解意义的基础上找出对应的汉语四字结构，既语义准确，又没有丢掉英文的文笔。刘士聪先生译为“焕发着青春的风采”，显得有些平淡无味。
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.译文：然而，当我被关于他的时间之雾包围时，我好奇他会怎么想，他是否知道在他去世30年后的这一刻，他的记忆会因此得以保存并受人敬仰，就在这所名校中，在他微妙的灵魂一度被奇怪地困扰的地方。
我认为这部分翻译的有失妥当，可以参照刘士聪先生译文：“同时我在寻思着，因为与他之间相隔一段宛若迷雾的年月，假如他知道在这一时刻他已经死了三十年，他可爱的母校在以这样的方式纪念他，给他这样高的荣誉，而他上学时，他脆弱的心灵曾经莫名其妙地烦恼过，他会作怎样的感想呢？”
试译：而我与他相隔迷雾般萦绕的时间，寻思如果他知道此时他已逝世三十年，并被他所深爱的母校——他的脆弱灵魂曾感受无端困惑的地方——缅怀和敬仰，他会怎么想。
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.译文：他们热衷于维持师生之间不变的全景画，热衷于让那些与继承学校传统的面貌形象有关的校史记录保持鲜活。
这一句话译者自己也没有理解原文意思，所以翻译出来就更加抽象难懂。可以参照刘士聪译文：“而校方也希望完整地再现教师队伍的全貌，使那些保持了学校传统的名人形象构成的校史有生气。”

第五篇：美国万圣节的由来
中国有吃饺子的习俗，有放鞭炮的习俗。。。美国的万圣节，是在十月的最后一天，那天，与圣诞节相比差不到哪去。在今天的美国和加拿大，多姿多彩的万圣节(HALLOWE EN)恐怕是仅次于圣诞节的消费最多的节日了。然而这一历史悠久的节日却根出于欧洲大陆。两千多年前，欧洲的天主教会把十一月一日定为天下圣徒之日(ALLHALLOWSDAY)。HALLOW即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年，居住在当今中欧爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人(CELTS)把这节日往前移了一天，即十月三十一日。他们认为该日是夏天正式结束的日子，也就是新年伊始，严酷的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信，故人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵，借此再生，而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。而活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生，于是人们就在这一天熄掉炉火、烛光，让死魂无法找寻活人，又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。之后，他们又会把火种烛光重新燃起，开始新的一年的生活。传说那时凯尔特人部落还有在10月31日把活人杀死用以祭奠死人的习俗。到了公元一世纪，占领了凯尔特部落领地的罗马人也渐渐接受了万圣节习俗，但从此废止了烧活人祭死人的野蛮做法。时间流逝，万圣节的意义逐渐起了变化，变得积极快乐起来，喜庆的意味成了主流。死魂找替身返世的说法也渐渐被摒弃和忘却。到了今天，象征万圣节的形象、图画如巫婆、黑猫等，大都有友善可爱和滑稽的脸。万圣节传入美国是在1840年间。当时的爱尔兰闹机荒，造成大批爱尔兰人移民美国，他们把庆祝万圣节的习俗也带到了这片土地。万圣节的一个有趣内容是TRICKORTREAT，这习俗却并非源自爱尔兰，而是始于公元九世纪的欧洲基督教会。那时的十一月二日，被基督徒们称为ALLSOULSDAY(万灵之日)。在该日，信徒们跋涉于僻壤乡间，挨村挨户乞讨用面粉及葡萄干制成的灵魂之饼。据说捐赠糕饼的人家都相信教会僧人的祈祷，期待由此得到上帝的佑护，让死去的亲人早日进入天堂。这种挨家乞讨的传统传至当今竟演变成了孩子们提着南瓜灯笼挨家讨糖吃的游戏，不能不算是万圣节历史的趣事。另外还有南瓜雕空当灯笼的故事。这又是源于古代爱尔兰。故事是说一个名叫JACK的人，是个醉汉且爱恶作剧。一天JACK把恶魔骗上了树，随即在树桩上刻了个十字，恐吓恶魔令他不敢下来，然后JACK就与恶魔约法三章，让恶魔答应施法让JACK永远不会犯罪为条件让他下树。JACK死后，其灵魂却既不能上天又不能下地狱，于是他的亡灵只好靠一根小蜡烛照着指引他在天地之间倘佯。在古老的爱尔兰传说里，这根小蜡烛是在一根挖空的萝卜里放着，称作JACKLANTER NS，而古老的萝卜灯演变到今天，则是南瓜做的JACK-O-LANTERN了。据说爱尔兰人到了美国不久，即发现南瓜不论从来源和雕刻来说都比萝卜胜一筹，于是南瓜就成了万圣节的宠物。南瓜来说都比萝卜胜一筹，于是南瓜就成了万圣节的宠物。南瓜雕刻及其形象也进入了千家万户，成为最普遍存在的美国万圣节风情之一。今天美国人的万圣节已今非昔比。生活在美国的多族裔人民，不但都接受了这一具独特风格的节日，而且把它加以发挥，形成美国自己独有的万圣节。近年，美国人为万圣节付出的花费平均每年为2.5亿，成为仅次于圣诞节的第二大消费节日。这个节日虽说以前不大好,还要把活人烧死(迷信到了极点).但现在,孩子们又可以吓唬人又可以得到一些糖果,开心的很.
