雪莱和伊丽莎白的通信情书

  雪莱Percy Bysshe Shelley

  雪莱是一名柏拉图主义者,也是个理想主义者。1811年,雪莱邂逅了28岁的伊丽莎白·西琴勒。

  伊丽莎白是一名教师,拥有先锋派思想,雪莱将其视为自己的心灵知己和缪斯女神,两人一直保持着通信往来和纯洁的精神友谊。

  有趣的是,两人还在通信中对爱情是什么进行了严谨的学术探讨。

  原文:

  What is love, or friendship? Is it something material...a ball, an apple, a plaything...which must be taken from one to be given to another? Is it capable of no extension, no communication? Lord Kaimes defines love to be a particularization of the general passion. But this is the love of sensation, of sentiment...the absurdest of absurd vanities: it is the love of pleasure, not the love of happiness.

  But love, the love which we worship , ... virtue, heaven, disinterestedness ... in a word, Friendship ... which has as much to do with the senses as with yonder mountains; that which seeks the good of all ... the good of its object first, not because that object is a minister to its Pleasures, not merely because it even contributes to its happiness, but because it is really worthy, because it has powers, sensibilities, is capable of abstracting itself, and loving virtue's own loveliness ...

  译文:

  何谓爱情?何谓友情?是一些实在的'东西吗?是球、苹果、玩偶……是从一个人那儿拿来,又给予另一个人的实物吗?是不能深化、不能交流的吗?Kaimes勋爵给爱情下的定义是,爱情是一般激情的特殊体现,但这是肉 欲之爱、情欲之爱……是荒谬绝伦的逢场作戏,是寻欢作乐的爱,不是幸福的爱。

  但我们崇拜的爱,象征美德、天意和无私,一句话,真情……它能被感知,就像远方山头上的云朵一样。它追求大家的幸福……首先是对方的幸福,不是因为对方给予欢乐,不光它甚至能给予欢乐,更因为它真的值得,它有力量,有感知力,并能将自己抽离,因为美德的可爱而热爱美德……
