Traditions of the Tinguian: a Study in Philippine Folk-Lore — Page 6
The stories of the last division are the most frequently heard and, as already indicated, are told by all.
最后一部分的故事是最常被听到的,并且如前所述,是由所有人讲述的。
It is evident even to the casual reader that these show much more evidence of outside influence than do the others; some, indeed, appear to have been recently borrowed from the neighboring christianized Ilocano. [2]
即使是随意的读者也能明显看出,这些故事比其他故事显示出更多外部影响的痕迹;其中一些,确实,似乎是最近从邻近的已基督教化的伊洛卡诺人那里借用的。[2]
Tales of the Mythical Period
神话时期的故事
_Reconstruction of the Culture_.--In the first division certain actors occur with great frequency, while others always take the leading parts.
《文化的重建》——在第一部分中,某些角色出现的频率很高,而另一些角色则始终担任主角。
These latter appear under a variety of names, two or more titles often being used for the same individual in a single tale.
后者以各种名字出现,在同一个故事中,同一个人物往往使用两个或更多的称谓。
To avoid confusion a list of the fourteen principal actors and their relationships are given in the accompanying table.
为了避免混淆,附表中列出了十四位主要角色及其相互关系。
It will appear that there are some conflicts in the use of names, but when it is realized that the first twenty-six myths which make up the cycle proper were secured from six story tellers coming from four different towns, the agreement rather than the disagreement is surprising.
看起来在名字的使用上存在一些冲突,但当意识到构成完整故事周期的前二十六个神话是从来自四个不同城镇的六位讲故事者那里收集到的时,令人惊讶的是彼此的一致而非分歧。
As a matter of fact there is quite as much variation between the accounts of the same narrator as between those gathered from different towns.
事实上,同一位叙述者的不同讲述之间的差异,与从不同城镇收集的讲述之间的差异一样大。
