What will become of the eternal truths of the Dionysian and Apollinian when the styles are mixed in this fashion, as I have shown to be the essence of the stilo rappresentativo?

悲剧的诞生The Birth Of Tragedy 第130 酒神精神消失
在这样的混合风格中,醉境的与梦境的永恒真理将有甚么结果呢?这种风格,象我已经分析的,乃是抒情调的因素:

A style in which music is regarded as the servant, the text as the master, where music is compared with the body, the text with the soul? where at best the highest aim will be directed toward a paraphrastic tone-painting, just as formerly in the New Attic Dithyramb?

音乐被目为奴仆,歌词被目为主人;音乐比诸肉体,歌词譬如灵魂;其最高目的,正如以前阿提刻喜剧的音乐那样,最多不过是以声写情而已。

where music is completely alienated from its true dignity as the Dionysian mirror of the world, so that the only thing left to it, as the slave of phenomena, is to imitate the formal character of phenomena, and to arouse a superficial pleasure in the play of lines and proportions.

音乐业已完全抛弃它作为醉境之明镜的真正光荣,既已成为现象的奴婢,就唯有模仿现象的形式因素,以线条和比例来促使一种浅薄的快感活跃起来。

Closely observed, this fatal influence of the opera on music is seen to coincide exactly with the universal development of modern music;

仔细观察,便不难看出歌剧对音乐的致命影响是与现代音乐的普通发展彼此一致的。

the optimism lurking in the genesis of the opera and in the character of the culture thereby represented, has, with alarming rapidity, succeeded in divesting music of its Dionysian-cosmic mission and impressing on it a playfully formal and pleasurable character:

潜伏在歌剧根源和它所代表的文化本质中的乐观主义,居然以惊人的速度僭夺了音乐的醉境之世界使命,给它打上玩弄形式和娱乐性质之烙印——

a change comparable to the metamorphosis of the Aeschylean man into the cheerful Alexandrian.

这一转变,只有埃斯库罗斯悲剧英雄之转变为亚历山德里亚乐天人物差堪比拟。

If, however, in the exemplification here indicated, we have rightly associated the disappearance of the Dionysian spirit with a most striking, but hitherto unexplained, transformation and degeneration of the Hellenic man--

然而,在上述的例证中,我们已经正确地把酒神精神之消失、同极其明确的但尚未阐明的希腊人之转变和退化联系起来;

what hopes must revive in us when the most certain auspices guarantee the reverse process, the gradual awakening of the Dionysian spirit in our modern world!

那末,假如有个最可靠的朕兆,保证相反的过程,即:在今日的世界,酒神精神方在逐渐苏醒,我们心中将恢复多么热烈的希望呢!

It is impossible that the divine strength of Herakles should languish forever in ample bondage to Omphale.

赫拉克勒斯的神力绝不可能永远为翁珐梨王后效劳,在安乐窝中消磨壮志!
