The Story of Philosophy《哲學的故事》第1章Plato第5節(jié)V. The Political Problem第1段第2句引文第6句:
Justice would be simple matter, says Plato, if men were simple; an anarchist communism would suffice. For a moment he gives his imagination reign:
First, then, let us consider what will be their way of life…. Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves? And when they are housed they will work in summer commonly stripped and barefoot, but in winter substantially clothed and shod. They will feed on barley and wheat, baking the wheat and kneading the flour, making noble puddings and loaves; these they will serve up on a mat of reed or clean leaves, themselves reclining the while upon beds of yew or myrtle boughs. And they and their children will feast, drinking of the wine which they have made, wearing garlands on their heads, and having praises of the gods on their lips, living in sweet society, and having a care that their families do not exceed their means; for they will have an eye to poverty or war…. Of course they will have a relish — salt, and olives, and cheese, and onions, and cabbages or other country herbs which are fit for boiling; and we shall give them a dessert of figs, and pulse, and beans, and myrtleberries, and beechnuts which they will roast at the fire, drinking in moderation. And with such a diet they may be expected to live in peace to a good old age, and bequeath a similar life to their children after them (273).
浙江大學譯本:當然吉拳,他們也講究一些調(diào)味品,如鹽摊册、橄欖哲戚、奶酪族扰、洋蔥、卷心菜或其他可以放進鍋里煮的香草。無花果堕澄、大豆僵芹、豌豆处硬、香桃木漿果、山毛櫸堅果也被拿來在火上燒烤后制成甜點拇派,就著酒吃荷辕。
解析
1、Of course they will have a relish — salt, and olives, and cheese, and onions, and cabbages or other country herbs which are fit for boiling;
當然件豌,他們會有一些調(diào)料疮方,如鹽、橄欖茧彤、奶酪骡显、洋蔥、卷心菜或者其它適合煮的野菜曾掂;
relish: a seasoned sauce that is used to add flavor to other foods and that is made of chopped fruit or vegetables開胃小菜惫谤,調(diào)味品
2、and we shall give them a dessert of figs, and pulse, and beans, and myrtleberries, and beechnuts which they will roast at the fire, drinking in moderation.
我們將備上餐后甜點珠洗,如無花果溜歪、大豆、豌豆许蓖、香桃木漿果痹愚、以及放在火上烤著吃的山毛櫸堅果,配以適量小酒蛔糯。
fig: a sweet fruit that grows on a tree and that is usually eaten dry 無花果
pulse: 在農(nóng)業(yè)拯腮、烹飪、營養(yǎng)學等場景里蚁飒,表示“豆子动壤;豆科植物”
beechnut: 山毛櫸堅果
in moderation: in a way that is reasonable and not excessive適量
I really think everything in moderation and balance. 我真的的認為一切都要適度和平衡。
當然淮逻,他們會有一些調(diào)料琼懊,如鹽阁簸、橄欖、奶酪哼丈、洋蔥启妹、卷心菜或者其它適合煮的野菜;我們將備上餐后甜點醉旦,如無花果饶米、大豆、豌豆车胡、香桃木漿果檬输、以及放在火上烤著吃的山毛櫸堅果,配以適量小酒匈棘。
這句寫出了他們的調(diào)味品及餐后甜點丧慈。除了鹽、奶酪主卫,全都看到食材本來的樣子逃默。
