Beyond Good and Evil — Page 3
For it may be doubted, firstly, whether antitheses exist at all; and secondly, whether the popular valuations and antitheses of value upon which metaphysicians have set their seal, are not perhaps merely superficial estimates, merely provisional perspectives, besides being probably made from some corner, perhaps from below--"frog perspectives," as it were, to borrow an expression current among painters.
왜냐하면 첫째로, 대립 명제가 과연 존재하는지 여부가 의심스러울 수 있으며, 둘째로, 형이상학자들이 자신들의 인장을 찍어 놓은 가치에 관한 통속적인 평가와 가치의 대립 명제들이, 화가들 사이에서 통용되는 표현을 빌리자면, 어쩌면 단순히 피상적인 추정에 불과하고, 단순히 잠정적인 관점에 불과하며, 아마도 어떤 구석에서, 어쩌면 아래에서 바라본 소위 '개구리의 시각'에서 만들어진 것이 아닌가 하는 의심이 들 수 있기 때문이다.
In spite of all the value which may belong to the true, the positive, and the unselfish, it might be possible that a higher and more fundamental value for life generally should be assigned to pretence, to the will to delusion, to selfishness, and cupidity.
진실하고, 긍정적이며, 이타적인 것에 속할 수 있는 모든 가치에도 불구하고, 삶 전반에 있어서 더 높고 더 근본적인 가치가 허위, 망상에 대한 의지, 이기심, 그리고 탐욕에 부여되어야 할 가능성이 있을지도 모른다.
It might even be possible that WHAT constitutes the value of those good and respected things, consists precisely in their being insidiously related, knotted, and crocheted to these evil and apparently opposed things--perhaps even in being essentially identical with them.
심지어 그 선하고 존경받는 것들의 가치를 이루는 것이 정확히 이 악하고 겉으로는 대립되는 것들과 은밀하게 연관되고, 얽히고, 엮여 있다는 점에 있을 가능성도 있으며, 어쩌면 본질적으로 그것들과 동일한 것일 수도 있다.
Perhaps! But who wishes to concern himself with such dangerous "Perhapses"!
어쩌면! 그러나 누가 그러한 위험한 '어쩌면들'에 스스로를 관여시키고자 하겠는가!
For that investigation one must await the advent of a new order of philosophers, such as will have other tastes and inclinations, the reverse of those hitherto prevalent--philosophers of the dangerous "Perhaps" in every sense of the term.
그 탐구를 위해서는 지금까지 지배적이었던 것과는 반대되는 다른 취향과 성향을 가진, 그 말의 모든 의미에서 위험한 '어쩌면'의 철학자들인 새로운 철학자 계층의 도래를 기다려야 한다.
And to speak in all seriousness, I see such new philosophers beginning to appear.
그리고 진지하게 말하자면, 나는 그러한 새로운 철학자들이 나타나기 시작하는 것을 본다.
