华盛顿·欧文的《见闻札记》(The Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon)。里面包含 30 篇独立的作品——其中有两篇你肯定听说过(《沉睡谷传奇》和《瑞普·凡·温克尔》)。但这部大部头其实是一个热爱旅行的人写的一本文集,所以哪怕是那两个故事,也被设定成了他在旅途中听来的乡野传说。它们读起来出人意料地现代……
Washington Irving's "The Sketchbook of Geoffrey Crayon." It's 30 separate pieces -- two of which you've heard of ("The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip van Winkle.") But the larger work is a collection of essays by a travel-loving man, so even those two stories are cast as rural tales he'd heard during his travels. They're surprisingly modern…

……今天还在读 200 年前首次出版的作品,即便是虚构类作品。《傲慢与偏见》出版于 1813 年,《弗兰肯斯坦》首次出版于 1818 年,《瑞普·凡·温克尔》出版于 1819 年,《沉睡谷传奇》出版于 1820 年,《最后的莫希干人》出版于 1826 年,《自立》出版于 1841 年,《阿蒙蒂亚度酒桶》出版于 1846 年。也许罗琳还没达到这种水准……
…reading works first published 200 years ago today, even fictional works. Pride and Prejudice was published in 01813, Frankenstein was first published in 01818, Rip Van Winkle was published in 01819, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was published in 01820, The Last of the Mohicans was published in 01826, Self-Reliance was published in 01841, The Cask of Amontillado was published in 01846. Maybe Rowling doesn't rise to the level…
……在美国并不像过去那样尊重……教育工作者了。情况可能是从 1950 年代开始走下坡路的,但其实以前也没好到哪去。想想《沉睡谷传奇》里对教师这个职业的鄙视,还有那句传统谚语:“能干的人做事,不能干的人教书。”我不知道这是从什么时候开始的,但在盎格鲁文化里,对教育工作者的普遍轻视已经存在好几个世纪了。
…in America doesn't respect...educators in the way it used to. Things may have gone downhill since the 1950s, but it was never very good. Think of the scorn directed at the teaching profession in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and the traditional proverb, "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach." I don't know when it began, but the general disrespect for educators is centuries old in Anglo culture.
在以 1790 年纽约为背景的《沉睡谷传奇》中,这算是一个情节要素。伊卡博德·克兰是一名乡村教师,他靠村民们提供的食宿过活。
This is somewhat of a plot component in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, set in New York in 1790. Ichabod Crane is a schoolteacher, and he is sustained by food and lodging from the villagers.
