Anna Karenina — Page 3

English → Korean Chapter 3 Level 7/10

The liberal party said that marriage is an institution quite out of date, and that it needs reconstruction; and family life certainly afforded Stepan Arkadyevitch little gratification, and forced him into lying and hypocrisy, which was so repulsive to his nature.

자유주의 당은 결혼이란 제도가 완전히 시대에 뒤떨어진 것이며 재건이 필요하다고 말했다. 그리고 가정생활은 분명히 스테판 아르카디예비치에게 거의 만족을 주지 못했으며, 그의 본성에 너무나 혐오스러운 거짓말과 위선을 강요했다.

The liberal party said, or rather allowed it to be understood, that religion is only a curb to keep in check the barbarous classes of the people; and Stepan Arkadyevitch could not get through even a short service without his legs aching from standing up, and could never make out what was the object of all the terrible and high-flown language about another world when life might be so very amusing in this world.

자유주의 당은 종교란 민중의 야만적인 계층을 억제하기 위한 굴레에 불과하다고 말했으며, 오히려 그렇게 이해되도록 내버려 두었다. 스테판 아르카디예비치는 짧은 예배조차 서 있느라 다리가 아프지 않고서는 견딜 수 없었고, 이 세상에서 삶이 이토록 즐거울 수 있는데 저 세상에 대한 그 모든 끔찍하고 과장된 언어의 목적이 무엇인지 도무지 알 수 없었다.

And with all this, Stepan Arkadyevitch, who liked a joke, was fond of puzzling a plain man by saying that if he prided himself on his origin, he ought not to stop at Rurik and disown the first founder of his family—the monkey.

그리고 이 모든 것과 함께, 농담을 좋아했던 스테판 아르카디예비치는 만약 자신의 출신을 자랑스러워한다면 류리크에서 멈추지 말고 자신의 가문의 첫 번째 시조인 원숭이를 부인하지 말아야 한다고 말함으로써 평범한 사람을 당혹스럽게 하는 것을 즐겼다.

And so Liberalism had become a habit of Stepan Arkadyevitch's, and he liked his newspaper, as he did his cigar after dinner, for the slight fog it diffused in his brain.

그리하여 자유주의는 스테판 아르카디예비치의 습관이 되었고, 그는 저녁 식사 후의 시가처럼 신문을 좋아했는데, 그것이 그의 뇌 속에 퍼뜨리는 약간의 안개 때문이었다.
