ARCADIA
阿卡迪亞
Arcadia is a region of ancient Greece, consisting of valleys surrounded by high mountains and therefore difficult to access, whose inhabitants lived isolated from the rest of the world, proverbially living a simple, pastoral life.
阿卡迪亞是古希臘的一個(gè)地區(qū)踩晶，由高山環(huán)繞的山谷組成，因此很難進(jìn)入常熙，那里的居民與世隔絕搂赋，過著簡單的田園生活闽寡。
The term refers to any region offering rural simplicity and contentment. Additionally, the term arcadia is used to refer to an imaginary and paradisal place.
這個(gè)詞（Arcadia）指的是任何提供鄉(xiāng)村簡樸和滿足的地區(qū)状您。此外碧浊，“世外桃源”（Arcadia）一詞用來指想象中，像天堂般的地方肩豁。
The French painter Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665) used this pictorial tradition to paint one of his most famous canvasses, known as The Arcadian Shepherds, or Et in Arcadia Ego(1647). This painting represents four Arcadians, in a meditative and melancholy mood, symmetrically arranged on either side of a tomb. One of the shepherds kneels on the ground and reads the inscription on the tomb, "Et in Arcadia Ego," which can be translated as "I (the person in the tomb) also used to live in Arcadia." The second shepherd seems to discuss the inscription with a woman standing near him. The third shepherd stands pensively aside. In Poussin's painting，Arcadia is tinged by the melancholic contemplation of death itself, by the fact that our happiness in this world is very transitory and evanescent. Even when we feel that we have discovered a place where peace and gentle joy reign we must remember that is will end, and that all will vanish.
法國畫家尼古拉斯·普桑(1594-1665)利用這一繪畫傳統(tǒng)辫呻，創(chuàng)作了他最著名的油畫之一《田園牧童》蓖救。這幅畫描繪了四個(gè)阿卡迪亞人，在冥想和憂郁的情緒中印屁，對稱地排列在墳?zāi)沟膬蓚?cè)循捺。其中一個(gè)牧羊人跪在地上，讀著墳?zāi)股系你懳男廴耍癊t in Arcadia Ego”从橘，可以譯為“我（墳?zāi)估锏娜耍┮苍≡诎⒖ǖ蟻啞础钠！钡诙€(gè)牧羊人似乎和一個(gè)站在他旁邊的女人討論銘文恰力。第三個(gè)牧羊人靜靜地站在一旁沉思。在普桑的畫中,世外桃源是帶著憂郁的沉思的死亡本身,在這個(gè)世界上,我們的幸福短暫而虛無旗吁。即使當(dāng)我們覺得我們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)地方踩萎，那里充滿了和平和溫柔的歡樂，我們也必須記住很钓，那將有盡頭香府，一切都將消失。
