斯湯達STENDHAL《紅與黑》THE RED and THE BLACK: a Chronicle of 1830

Translations[edit]

Le Rouge et le Noir, Chronique du XIX^e siècle (1830) was first translated to English c. 1900; the best-known translation, The Red and the Black (1926), by Charles Kenneth Scott-Moncrieff, has been, like his other translations, characterised as one of his “fine, spirited renderings, not entirely accurate on minor points of meaning . . . Scott Moncrieff’s versions have not really been superseded”.^[6] The version by Robert M. Adams, for the Norton Critical Editions series, is also highly regarded; it “is more colloquial; his edition includes an informative section on backgrounds and sources, and excerpts from critical studies”;^[7] it is modernized compared to Moncrieff, but also contains many errors on detailed points. Burton Raffel’s 2006 translation for the Modern Library is sometimes criticized, but generally earned positive reviews, with Salon.com saying, “[Burton Raffel’s] exciting new translation of The Red and the Black blasts Stendhal into the twenty-first century.”

頭腦保守的批評家總覺得田園詩裏提到官吏榨逼農民，那未免像音樂合奏時來一響手槍聲*，有點兒殺風景......
