    聊八卦,玩英语,就在娱乐没有圈!

    在刚刚结束的本届诺贝尔颁奖礼上,文学奖得主Bob Dylan却未出席,让这位爆冷获奖的流行音乐人,再次站上了风口浪尖。

    93'

    10th December is Nobel Day. For the prize winners, it is the climax of a week of speeches, conferences and receptions. At the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony in the Stockholm Concert Hall that day, the winners in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, and Literature receive a medal from the King of Sweden, as well as a diploma and a cash award. The ceremony is followed by a gala banquet.

    作为成为全球第一个获得诺贝尔的流行艺人,Bob Dylan的这次获奖真是引发了不少的争议和讨论。

    诺贝尔官方给出的获奖理由是——For having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.

    但反对者也振振有词,直接质疑音乐人拿文学奖的合理性。
    As one of the most prestigious awards, only 6 extraordinary people from around the world would be qualified to take the prize, Bob Dylan is just a singer, not a writer, why award him the literature prize?

    对此,瑞典科学院的Sara Danius回应道,诗歌本就起源于歌曲表演,这件事是很合理的。
    The choice of Dylan may appear surprising, but if you look far back, 2,500 years or so, you discover Homer and Sappho and they wrote poetic texts which were meant to be performed, often with instruments-- it’s the same way for Bob Dylan.We still read Homer and Sappho, and we enjoy it. We can and should read him.

    这边的嘴仗还没结束,诺奖委员会又传出了联系不上鲍勃·迪伦的消息。直到两周后,这件事儿才算归于平静。

    86'

    The Internet is buzzing with speculation and opinion over the star's “rude” and unconventional behavior — and also about his health. After all, what could be more important than receiving the Nobel prize? It's also of some comfort that the star finally made it publicly known that he feels “incredibly honored by the Nobel prize.”He also said the prize was “something I never could have imagined or seen coming”.


    在颁奖礼上,文学评论家Horace Engdahl给鲍勃迪伦相当高的评价,他说,迪伦的歌词曾让“许多学院派诗人都黯然失色”,而且“改变了我们关于诗歌是什么,以及诗歌可以干什么的所有陈规”。

    What brings about the great shifts in the world of literature? Often it is when someone seizes upon a simple, overlooked form, discounted as art in the high sense, and makes it mutate. In the distant past, all poetry was sung or tunefully recited. Dylan had dedicated himself to music played for ordinary people and tried to copy it. But when he started to write songs, they came out differently, he panned poetry gold, whether on purpose or by accident is irrelevant … He gave back to poetry its elevated style, lost since the romantics.”

    获奖以后,鲍勃·迪伦曾说“我开始回想起威廉·莎士比亚这位伟大的文学人物,我估计他也只认为自己是一个写剧本的。”所以就像莎士比亚从不需要考虑“我的剧本是文学吗?”一样,迪伦也从没问过自己“我写的歌是文学吗?”

    最后,和魔星人分享几个鲍勃·迪伦的创作,我们下周再见咯!
