近日从图书馆借了一本 The Discourse & Sayings of Confucious, 辜鸿铭译. 满口余香之际, 不由击节叫好, 满心赞叹, 欢喜不已. 特摘录几段于下:
( f' u+ q5 P' @% Y3 g9 ^+ l3 x7 N. E% M& ]. y" ?# [5 S9 D8 Y) R
<论语 子罕9> " 仰之弥高, 钻之弥坚。瞻之在前,忽焉在后" 辜将之译为" The more I have looked up to it the higher it appears. The more I tried to penetrate into it the more impenetrable it seems to be. When I have thought I have laid hold of it here, lo! it is there." 对仗工整, 用语极为到位. - L" a6 _4 ?$ q' g B, F$ r$ `

于是我不由对此人好奇, 此人中英文造诣到如此登峰造极的程度, 究竟是如何学来的呢? 辜说" 今人读英文十年,开目仅能阅报,伸纸仅能修函,皆由幼年读一猫一狗之式教科书,是以终其身只有小成。”他主张“中国私塾教授法,以开蒙未久,即读四书五经,尤须背诵如流水也" ....% p9 k0 U% F$ y/ k

看来传统学习方法"背熟名家著作"对其影响深远. 今转载与此,与大家共勉.9 |+ {) f5 ~" [& h: H7 H- v
