Sentence:Translation:有過各式各樣定義文學(xué)的嘗試。例如,你可以將其定義為虛構(gòu)意義上的"想象性"寫作——一種并非在字面意義上追求真實在的寫作。但是,只要稍微想一想人們通常用文學(xué)這一標(biāo)題所概括的東西,我們就會發(fā)現(xiàn)這個定義是行不通的。Paragraph2Adistinctionbetween“fact”and“fiction”,then,seemsunlikelytogetusveryfar,notleastbecausethedistinctionitselfisoftenaquestionableone…ouroppositionbetween“historical”and“artistic”truthdoesnotapplyatalltotheearlyIcelandicsagas.Moreover,if“l(fā)iterature”includesmuch“factual”writing,italsoexcludesquitealotoffiction.

Sentence:Translation:因此,“事實”(fact)與“虛構(gòu)”(fiction)的區(qū)分對于我們似乎并無多少幫助,而這絕不僅僅是因為這一區(qū)分本身經(jīng)常是值得懷疑的。···我們把“歷史”真實和“藝術(shù)”真實對立起來的做法根本就不適用于早期冰島傳說。···而且,如果“文學(xué)”包括很多“事實性”作品的話,它也排斥了相當(dāng)一批虛構(gòu)作品。Paragraph3Perhapsoneneedsadifferentkindofapproachaltogether.Perhapsliteratureisdefinablenotaccordingtowhetheritisfictionalor“imaginative”,butbecauseituseslanguageinpeculiarways.Literaturetransformsandintensifiesordinarylanguage,deviatessystematicallyfromeverydayspeech.

v.處理,接近transformv.改變,轉(zhuǎn)化intensifyv.加劇,增強deviatev.偏離(from)KeySentences2.ReadingBetweentheLines
Sentence:Translation:也許,我們需要一種完全不同的方法。也許,文學(xué)的可以定義并不在于它的虛構(gòu)性或"想象性",而是因為它以種種特殊方式運用語言。文學(xué)改變和強化普通語言,系統(tǒng)地偏離日常言語。Paragraph4-5Literature,then,wemightsay,is“non-pragmatic”discourse:unlikebiologytextbooksandnotestothemilkman,itservesnoimmediatepracticalpurpose,butistobetakenasreferringtoageneralstateofaffairs.…wemeanbyliteratureakindofself-referentiallanguage,alanguagewhichtalksaboutitself.

Sentence:Translation:因而,我們可以說,文學(xué)是“非實用”話語:與生物學(xué)教科書或?qū)懡o送奶人的便條不同,它并不服務(wù)于任何直接的實際目的;相反,文學(xué)應(yīng)該被認為是指涉各種事情的普遍狀態(tài)的?!膶W(xué)是一種自我指涉的語言,即一種談?wù)撟陨淼恼Z言。Paragraph6…theterm“l(fā)iterature”operatesratherliketheword“weed”:weedsarenotparticularkindsofplant,butjustanykindofplantwhichforsomereasonoranotheragardenerdoesnotwantaround.Perhaps“l(fā)iterature”meanssomethingliketheopposite:anykindofwritingwhichforsomereasonoranothersomebodyvalueshighly.
Vocabulary:oppositen.正好相反的人或事物/

Sentence:Translation:"文學(xué)"一詞起作用的方式頗似"雜草"一詞:雜草并不是一種具體的植物,而只是園了出于某種理由想要除掉的任何一種植物。"文學(xué)"也許意味著某種與之相反的東西:它是人們出于某種理由而賦予其高度價值的任何一種作品。Paragraph7Theterm“finewriting”,orbelleslettres,isinthissenseambiguous:itdenotesasortofwritingwhichisgenerallyhighlyregarded,whilenotnecessarilycommittingyoutotheopinionthataparticularspecimenofitis“good”.
Vocabulary:ambiguousadj.模棱兩可的committo迫使、要求某人承諾或致力于某項行動或責(zé)任specimenn.樣本KeySentences2.ReadingBetweentheLines
Sentence:Translation:在這一意義上,"美文"或belleslettres(純文學(xué))一詞是意義曖昧的:它指一類普遍受到高度尊重的作品,同時它卻不一定要你必須認為這類作品中某一具體作品是"好"的。Writer’sIdeasWriter’sTechniquesLanguageProficiency
