Pride and Prejudice — Page 7

English → Korean Preface Level 7/10

A man in the early eighteenth century, of course, could push this taste further than a lady in the early nineteenth; and no doubt Miss Austen's principles, as well as her heart, would have shrunk from such things as the letter from the unfortunate husband in the_ Spectator, _who describes, with all the gusto and all the innocence in the world, how his wife and his friend induce him to play at blind-man's-buff.

18세기 초의 남성이라면 물론 19세기 초의 여성보다 이러한 취향을 더 멀리 밀고 나갈 수 있었을 것이다. 그리고 오스틴 양의 원칙은 물론 그녀의 마음도, 《스펙테이터》에 등장하는 불운한 남편의 편지—그가 세상에서 가장 신나고 순진하게, 아내와 친구가 자신을 눈가리개 놀이에 끌어들이는 방식을 묘사하는—와 같은 것들을 보면 움츠러들었을 것임에 틀림없다.

But another_ Spectator _letter--that of the damsel of fourteen who wishes to marry Mr. Shapely, and assures her selected Mentor that "he admires your_ Spectators _mightily"--might have been written by a rather more ladylike and intelligent Lydia Bennet in the days of Lydia's great-grandmother;

그러나 또 다른 《스펙테이터》의 편지—셰이플리 씨와 결혼하고 싶어 하는 열네 살 소녀의 편지로, 그녀가 선택한 멘토에게 "그는 당신의 《스펙테이터》를 대단히 흠모합니다"라고 확언하는—는 리디아의 증조할머니 시대에 좀 더 숙녀답고 총명한 리디아 베넷이 썼을 법한 것이었다.

while, on the other hand, some (I think unreasonably) have found "cynicism" in touches of Miss Austen's own, such as her satire of Mrs. Musgrove's self-deceiving regrets over her son.

반면에 일부 사람들은(내 생각에는 부당하게도) 오스틴 양 자신의 필치에서, 예컨대 머스그로브 부인이 아들에 대해 품는 자기기만적 후회를 풍자한 부분에서 "냉소주의"를 발견하기도 했다.

But this word "cynical" is one of the most misused in the English language, especially when, by a glaring and gratuitous falsification of its original sense, it is applied, not to rough and snarling invective, but to gentle and oblique satire.

그러나 "냉소적"이라는 단어는 영어에서 가장 잘못 사용되는 말 중 하나로, 특히 그 본래의 의미를 노골적이고 근거 없이 왜곡하여, 거칠고 으르렁대는 독설이 아니라 부드럽고 우회적인 풍자에 적용될 때 더욱 그러하다.
