【Notes Toward a Supreme Fiction—It Must Chang·X (1942)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) A bench was his catalepsy, Theatre Of Trope. He sat in the park. The water of The lake was full of artificial things,
Like a page of music, like an upper air, Like a momentary color, in which swans Were seraphs, were saints, were changing essences.
The west wind was the music, the motion, the force To which the swans curveted, a will to change, A will to make iris frettings on the blank.
There was a will to change, a necessitous And present way, a presentation, a kind Of volatile world, too constant to be denied,
The eye of a vagabond in metaphor That catches our own. The casual is not Enough. The freshness of transformation is
The freshness of a world. It is our own, It is ourselves, the freshness of ourselves, And that necessity and that presentation
Are rubbings of a glass in which we peer. Of these beginnings, gay and green, propose The suitable amours. Time will write them down. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《最高虛構筆記——它必要改變·之十》(1942年)】 異鄉人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【紅霞譯】 長凳當作他的強直性昏厥,劇情 轉折。他坐在公園裡。湖泊 水域布滿人造之物,
像樂曲,像高空, 像光色,其中天鵝 是六翼天使,是聖徒神仆,是改變的本質。
西風化作音樂、動態、力量 天鵝身之所往,改變的意願, 用虹彩回紋裝飾空白的信念。
存心改變,迫切 而現今的方式,一種展示,一個 變化無常的世界,恆久未改,
流浪者以暗喻的眼神 博得大家的注意。光靠隨意 遠遠不夠。新轉型滋生
新世界。我們自己, 我們每一位,我們各個精神飽滿, 還有那種必要和那種發揮
成為我們凝視的玻璃拓片。 所有這些誕生伊始,春意盎然,締結 良緣吧。時間終將留下印記。 【注】位於紐約曼哈頓“弓島”中城地獄廚房街區哈德遜“靈魂”園區的邊緣大廈觀景台100層樓高,號稱西半球最高的空中甲板,離地面高度1,131英尺/345米並向外延伸79英尺/24米,宛如懸浮於半空之中,360度全景盡收眼底,被譽為《星球大戰·殲星艦》(Star Destroyer)的現實版。
