Pride and Prejudice — Page 9

English → Korean Preface Level 7/10

And I am not so certain that I should myself use the word "narrow" in connection with her.

그리고 나는 그녀와 관련하여 내 자신이 "협소한"이라는 단어를 사용해야 할지 그리 확신하지 못한다.

If her world is a microcosm, the cosmic quality of it is at least as eminent as the littleness.

만약 그녀의 세계가 소우주라면, 그 우주적 특질은 적어도 그 작음만큼이나 탁월하다.

She does not touch what she did not feel herself called to paint; I am not so sure that she could not have painted what she did not feel herself called to touch.

그녀는 자신이 그려야 할 소명을 느끼지 못한 것은 다루지 않았다; 나는 그녀가 다루어야 할 소명을 느끼지 못한 것을 그릴 수 없었으리라고 그리 확신하지 못한다.

It is at least remarkable that in two very short periods of writing--one of about three years, and another of not much more than five--she executed six capital works, and has not left a single failure.

적어도 주목할 만한 것은, 두 개의 매우 짧은 집필 시기에--하나는 약 3년, 다른 하나는 5년을 조금 넘는--그녀가 여섯 편의 주요 작품을 완성하고 단 하나의 실패작도 남기지 않았다는 점이다.

It is possible that the romantic paste in her composition was defective: we must always remember that hardly anybody born in her decade--that of the eighteenth-century seventies--independently exhibited the full romantic quality.

그녀의 작품 속 낭만적 요소가 결핍되어 있었을 가능성이 있다: 우리는 그녀가 태어난 10년대--18세기 70년대--에 태어난 사람 중 완전한 낭만적 특질을 독자적으로 발휘한 사람이 거의 없었다는 점을 항상 기억해야 한다.

Even Scott required hill and mountain and ballad, even Coleridge metaphysics and German to enable them to chip the classical shell.

스콧조차도 구릉과 산과 발라드가 필요했고, 콜리지조차도 형이상학과 독일어가 있어야 고전적 껍질을 깨뜨릴 수 있었다.

Miss Austen was an English girl, brought up in a country retirement, at the time when ladies went back into the house if there was a white frost which might pierce their kid shoes, when a sudden cold was the subject of the gravest fears, when their studies, their ways, their conduct were subject to all those fantastic limits and restrictions against which Mary Wollstonecraft protested with better general sense than particular taste or judgment.

오스틴 양은 시골의 한적한 곳에서 자란 영국 여성으로, 당시 여성들은 새끼 가죽 신발을 뚫을 수 있는 흰 서리가 내리면 집 안으로 돌아갔고, 갑작스러운 한기는 가장 심각한 두려움의 대상이었으며, 그들의 학문, 생활 방식, 행동은 메리 울스턴크래프트가 특별한 취향이나 판단력보다는 더 나은 일반적 분별력으로 항의했던 그 모든 기이한 한계와 제약의 지배를 받던 시대에 살았다.
