Beyond Good and Evil — Page 9
In the philosopher, on the contrary, there is absolutely nothing impersonal; and above all, his morality furnishes a decided and decisive testimony as to WHO HE IS,--that is to say, in what order the deepest impulses of his nature stand to each other.
반면에 철학자에게는 비인격적인 것이 전혀 없으며, 무엇보다도 그의 도덕은 그가 누구인가에 대한, 즉 그의 본성의 가장 깊은 충동들이 서로 어떤 순서로 자리하고 있는가에 대한 결정적이고 단호한 증언을 제공한다.
7. How malicious philosophers can be!
7. 철학자들이 얼마나 심술궂을 수 있는가!
I know of nothing more stinging than the joke Epicurus took the liberty of making on Plato and the Platonists; he called them Dionysiokolakes.
나는 에피쿠로스가 플라톤과 플라톤주의자들에게 거리낌 없이 던진 농담보다 더 신랄한 것을 알지 못한다. 그는 그들을 디오니시오콜라케스라고 불렀다.
In its original sense, and on the face of it, the word signifies "Flatterers of Dionysius"--consequently, tyrants' accessories and lick-spittles; besides this, however, it is as much as to say, "They are all ACTORS, there is nothing genuine about them" (for Dionysiokolax was a popular name for an actor).
본래의 의미로, 그리고 표면적으로 이 단어는 "디오니소스의 아첨꾼들"을 뜻하며, 따라서 폭군의 공모자들이자 아첨꾼들을 의미한다. 그러나 이 외에도 "그들은 모두 배우들이며, 그들에게는 진정한 것이 아무것도 없다"는 말과 다름없다(디오니시오콜락스는 배우를 가리키는 통속적인 이름이었기 때문이다).
And the latter is really the malignant reproach that Epicurus cast upon Plato: he was annoyed by the grandiose manner, the mise en scene style of which Plato and his scholars were masters--of which Epicurus was not a master!
그리고 후자야말로 에피쿠로스가 플라톤에게 던진 진정한 악의적 비난이었다. 그는 플라톤과 그의 제자들이 능숙하게 구사하던 과장된 태도, 즉 미장센 스타일에 짜증을 느꼈다. 에피쿠로스는 그것을 능숙하게 구사하지 못했던 것이다!
He, the old school-teacher of Samos, who sat concealed in his little garden at Athens, and wrote three hundred books, perhaps out of rage and ambitious envy of Plato, who knows!
사모스 출신의 늙은 교사인 그는 아테네의 작은 정원 속에 숨어 앉아 삼백 권의 책을 저술했는데, 어쩌면 플라톤에 대한 분노와 야심찬 시기심에서였을지도 모른다. 누가 알겠는가!
Greece took a hundred years to find out who the garden-god Epicurus really was.
그리스는 정원의 신 에피쿠로스가 진정 누구인지 알아내는 데 백 년이 걸렸다.
Did she ever find out?
과연 그리스는 알아냈던가?
8. There is a point in every philosophy at which the "conviction" of the philosopher appears on the scene; or, to put it in the words of an ancient mystery:
8. 모든 철학에는 철학자의 "신념"이 등장하는 지점이 있다. 혹은 고대의 신비 의식의 말로 표현하자면 이렇다.
Adventavit asinus, Pulcher et fortissimus.
아드벤타비트 아시누스, 풀케르 에트 포르티시무스.
