【The Paltry Nude Starts on a Spring Voyage (1919)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) But not on a shell, she starts, Archaic, for the sea. But on the first-found weed She scuds the glitters, Noiselessly, like one more wave.
She too is discontent And would have purple stuff upon her arms, Tired of the salty harbors, Eager for the brine and bellowing Of the high interiors of the sea.
The wind speeds her on, Blowing upon her hands And watery back. She touches the clouds, where she goes, In the circle of her traverse of the sea.
Yet this is meagre play In the scrurry and water-shine, As her heels foam— Not as when the goldener nude Of a later day
Will go, like the centre of sea-green pomp, In an intenser calm, Scullion of fate, Across the spick torrent, ceaselessly, Upon her irretrievable way. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《渺小的裸女開啟春之旅》(1919)】 異鄉人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【紅霞譯】 她並非從貝殼開始, 以古韻的姿態,奔向大海。 而是在初遇的水草上 閃爍着亮光, 無聲無息,如同又一個波浪。
她也悵然不已 而手臂會戴上紫色飾物, 厭倦了咸澀的海港, 渴望海水咆哮的 大海巨浪。
風加快她的速度, 吹拂她的雙手 和打濕的後背。 她觸摸雲彩,就在 迂迴穿行大海的地方。
但這只是微渺之舉 在蕩漾的水光中, 一如她身後泛起泡沫—— 不像金棕色裸女 在後來的一天
消逝,卻如海綠色盛況的中心, 更加平靜, 命運的僕從, 不斷地穿越洶湧的波浪, 踏上難再回頭的道路。 【注】流水噴泉是為了紀念1842年巴豆渡槽(Croton Aqueduct)的開通所打造的純淨水紀念碑,該渡槽首次為紐約城帶來淡水,這對因飲用水污染而遭受像黃熱病、霍亂等毀滅性疾病爆發的紐約人來說是“治癒”的。雕塑《水之天使》的靈感來自《約翰“神賜”福音》(Gospel of John)中耶穌施行醫治奇蹟的流水療愈池,描述了天使祝福流水池並賦予其治癒能力,再現“季節、時刻、人類世紀”主題思想;天使手中的百合花象徵着水的純潔,基座周圍的四個小天使代表着和平、健康、純潔和節制。 流水露天是中央公園綠蔭道(The Mall)必經之路,其拱廊號稱世上唯一採用花磚或鑲嵌瓷磚做天花板的建築,由14,000—16,000塊山地花磚組成,因此形成49塊嵌板,並創造出精緻的幾何圖案。 Today in History(歷史上的今天): 2024: The Pond across Gapstow Bridge, NYC(紐約城·藤蔓石拱橋下的池塘) 2024:Belvedere Castle, NYC(紐約城·美景城堡) 2024: Bergdorf Goodman Dept.
