No Signposts in the Sea
deferential… 译文1：上校是不太讨人厌的帝国官员。有时他试 图和我谈谈公众事务。他说他拜读过我写的东西，对 我个人显得十分顺从和尊重。 评析： ①副词offensively用作修饰附加词语（adjunct）是 修饰整个句子的，表示说话人对所说的这句话的态度， 这是说话的重心所在，它并不是Empire-builder的定语。 因此译成“不太讨人厌的帝国官员”不合适。为了符 合末尾信息焦点的要求，用移位技巧，把词组not too offensively后置，译成“上校是英帝国驻殖民地的军官， 还不太讨人厌”。这句话的言外之音是：说话人认为 英帝国驻殖地的军官一般是令人讨厌的，不过这位年 青人还不太讨人厌。 ②译文1把词组charmingly deferential 译成：“顺从 和 尊 重 ” 。 但 charmingly 是 “ 媚 人 的 ， 可 爱 的 ” （delightful
评析： ①译文1机械地按英文次序译下去，在名词“衣服” 的前面竟堆砌了包括长达25个字的“的字”结构定语。 就是这样还漏译了always, most 和 flowing三词的翻译。
②实际上，原文是有层次的。原文用colours代替衣服，用 的是借代（metonymy）修辞格。实际上，soft和rich都是修饰 colours的，更准确地说soft是修饰rich colors的, rich 是浓艳（deep intense, bright）的意思，soft是柔和（not intense, bright）的意思。 这在修辞上叫做矛盾修辞法（oxymoron），作者用两个相反的 概念，恰如其分地描绘劳娜穿着艳而不俗，色彩鲜明不刺眼的 情形。Soft rich colours这个词组，信息焦点（或强调中心）在 soft, 根 据 末 尾 信 息 焦 点 （ end-focus ） 的 要 求 译 文 应 用 移 位 （inversion）技巧把次序整个来个大颠倒：soft rich colours变成 “色彩浓艳柔和”。这在修辞层就等值了。

In the dining-saloon I sit at a table with three other men; Laura sits some way oft with a married couple and their daughter. I can observe her without her knowing, and this gives me pleasure, for it is as in a moving picture that I can note the grace of her gestures, whether she raises a glass of wine to her lips or turns with a remark to one of her neighbours or takes a cigarette from her case with those slender fingers. I have never had much of an eye for noticing the clothes of women, but I get the impression that Laura is always in grey and white by day, looking cool when other people are flushed and shiny in the tropical heat; in the evening she wears soft rich colours, dark red, olive green, midnight blue, always of the most supple flowing texture. I ventured to say something of the kind to her, when she laughed at my clumsy compliment and said I had better take to writing fashion articles instead of political leaders.在餐厅里，我同另外三个男人围坐在一张桌子旁，而劳拉同一对夫妇及他们的女儿一块儿坐在离我不远的地方。

She was born at Knole House in Kent. She spent her early life with this ancient and huge house; because she was a woman, she could not inherit it, and this affected the rest of her life. She was the wife of Sir Harold Nicolson. Both she and Nicolson were members of the Bloomsbury group. She was famous for her exuberant aristocratic life, her strong marriage, and her passionate affairs with women.
Lesson 15 No Signpost in the Sea

About the author:( 9 March 1892 – 2 June 1962 )Victoria MarySackville-west was anEnglish poet and novelist.She was born in KnoleHouse, Kent, UK. She wasa descendant of LordTreasurer ThomasSackville, who is the cousinof Queen Elizabeth I.In 1913 she married diplomat Harold Nicolson (1886-1968), and they traveled extensively during his years in the foreign office. In London she was a member of the Bloomsbury group of literary and artistic friends including Virginia Woolf. Lytton Strachey, E.M. Foster and others.In the 1920s Sackville-West became romantically involved with the writer, Virginia Woolf, who celebrated this love affair in the novel Orlando(1928). Dedicated to Sackville-West, the book traces the history of the youthful, beautiful, and aristocratic Orlando, and explores the themes of sexual ambiguity. This was followed by her novels, The Edwardians(1930), All Passion Spent(1931) and The Dark Island(1934).She was famous for herexuberant aristocratic life,her strong marriage, andher passionate affair with novelist Virginia Woolf. Sackville-West's first published works were a collection of poems, Powers of West and East(1917). Her long poem The Land won the Hawthornden Prize in 1927. She also wrote the novel Heritage (1919)Personal life, marriage and bisexuality (Bit of profligacy )In 1913, Sackville-West married Harold Nicolson, and the couple moved to Cospoli, Constantinople(君士但丁堡of Turkey). Nicolson was at different times a diplomat, journalist, broadcaster, Member of Parliament, author of biographies and novels and also bisexual in what would now be called an open marriage. Both Sackville-West and her husband had consecutive same-sex relations.(gay, lesbian)These were no impediment(obstacle) to a true closeness between Sackville-West and Nicolson, as is seen from their nearly daily correspondence (published after their deaths by their son Nigel), and from an interview they gave for BBC radio after World War II. Nicolson gave up his diplomatic career partly so that he couldlive with Sackville-West in England, uninterrupted by long solitary postings to missions abroad.They returned to England in 1914 and bought Long Barn, in Kent.The couple had two children:Nigel, also a politician and writer; and Benedict, an art historian. In the 1930s, the family acquired and moved to Sissinghurst Castle, near Cranbrook, in Kent.Her main writings(Prolific Writer)1) The land(1926): It‟s a long poem,which was praised as one of themost beautiful bucolic/idyllic inEnglish literature ant wonHawthorndon prize.2) The Garden(1946), won theHeinemann prize3) The Edwardians (1930), a novel.（爱德华时代的人）4) All passion spent (1931), a novel(激情耗尽)5) The Eagle and the Dove (1943)6) Another World than This (1945)(an anthology)7) No Signposts in the Sea (1961)2. Styles and Influence:1) Sackville–west’s novels are more widely known, yet her poetry may prove to be more enduring: there is a depth of feeling and perception in the best of her poems, a quality at once stately and moving. Her prose is of consistently in high quality, supple clear, and craftsman-like, viewed as one of Britain‟s p romising young writers in the 1920‟s. She is now regarded famous for her personality as much as for her writing.She is a prolific writer, the author of 15 novels, as well as biographies and travel books.2) About the novel:“No Signposts in the Sea”(1) The novel with144-pages is in theform of a journal kept by a man calledEdmund Carr, 50 years old, aninfluential political columnist and abachelor.
