【The Woman in Sunshine (1948)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) It is only that this warmth and movement are like The warmth and movement of a woman.
It is not that there is any image in the air Nor the beginning nor end of a form:
It is empty. But a woman in threadless gold Burns us with brushings of her dress
And a dissociated abundance of being, More definite for what she is—
Because she is disembodied, Bearing the odors of the summer fields,
Confessing the taciturn and yet indifferent, Invisibly clear, the only love. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《陽光下的女人》(1948)】 異鄉人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【紅霞譯】 這種溫存和舉止如同 女人的溫存和舉止。
何嘗有絲毫想象的氛圍 即便掐頭去尾:
空白而已。但戴着無螺紋金飾的女人 激起我們強烈的情感,用她衣服的絨毛
還有存在的豐富性, 更加確定她是誰——
因為她虛幻飄渺, 帶來夏日田野的芳香,
懺悔沉默卻又淡然, 看不見的清澈,愛情的唯一。 【注】時代廣場舊稱長英畝廣場(Longacre Sq),1904年因為《紐約時報》的進駐而改名至今,於我印象最深的莫過於每年元旦除夕倒計時“大蘋果”水晶球從時代廣場一號大廈落下的場景。1994—1995歲末之交,我曾現場體驗過紐約客跨年夜的激情時刻,歡聲笑語交織成快樂的海洋,霓虹閃爍像心跳一樣充滿生命和色彩,廣告牌大屏幕高聳入雲,明亮的光芒象徵着永恆的輝煌,仿佛這片水泥叢里的太陽永遠不會隕落,而夢想總是觸手可及。 Today in History(歷史上的今天): 2023: The World Is A Commonwealth, NYC(紐約城中華公所·天下為公) 2023: Line of Phantasy in Chinatown, NYC(紐約城·唐人街虛擬線條) 2023: A Beacon for the Catholic Faithful, NYC(紐約城天主教的燈塔) 2023: Museum @ Eldridge Street, NYC(紐約埃爾德里奇街博物館·猶太教堂) 2023: Biggest Chinese Catholic Church in US(全美最大的華人天主教堂) 2023: Mahayana Temple in the Great Vehicle, NYC(紐約大乘·佛教寺) 2023: Yuletide Merriment @ Mid-Town, NYC(紐約中城·聖誕喜樂) 2023: SSt. Bartholomew's Church, NYC(紐約聖巴塞洛繆教堂·聖公會) 2023: St. Patrick's Cathedral, Largest in US(紐約聖帕特里克大教堂) 2023: Christmas Tree @ Rockefeller Ctr NYC(紐約洛克菲勒中心·聖誕樹)
