電影Purgatory廣告;Sons and Lovers 版本史與字眼的文化史:purgatory、afterlife

2016.11.26 在捷運看到電影Purgatory廣告,翻譯成"地獄",很不長進。

這段話,很值得討論:
Mrs Morel always said the after-life would hold nothing in store for her husband: he rose from the lower world into purgatory, when he came home from pit, and passed into heaven in the Palmerston Arms. Sons and Lovers - Edited out of the 1913 edition, restored in 1992
(這段,一般中譯本從缺。
The original 1913 edition was heavily edited by Edward Garnett who removed 80 passages, roughly a tenth of the text. The novel is dedicated to Garnett. Garnett, as the literary advisor to the publishing firm Duckworth, was an important figure in leading Lawrence further into the London literary world during the years 1911 and 1912. It was not until the 1992 Cambridge University Press edition was released that the missing text was restored.)

*****Purgatory 字眼的文化史可參考Wikipedia 中文版的簡單說明。基本上,天主教必須接受後人為其先人"代禱"之功德:purgatory 只有一通訪天堂的出口,沒有到地獄的通路。


煉獄(Purgatory)是天主教用來描述信徒死後靈魂暫時受罰的地方(或狀態),是天主教教義之一。煉獄的拉丁文purgare意思是洗滌。

描述[編輯]

天主教[編輯]

天主教徒認為,煉獄中關押的是已經確定將會得救的信徒。煉獄在天堂地獄之間,靈魂淨化後便可進天堂

Purgatory
noun [U]
the place to which Roman Catholics believe that the spirits of dead people go and suffer for the evil acts that they did while they were alive, before they are able to go to heaven
purgatory:煉獄;煉所:是那些死在天主恩寵中卻仍有些瑕疵的人,補贖罪罰、煉淨罪污的暫時受罰之過程(所),是一種進入天堂過程中被煉淨的體驗。為亡者獻贖罪祭,是為叫他們免除或減輕煉獄的罪罰(加下十二45)。或譯為" 靈薄獄"。

Origin


Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French purgatorie or medieval Latin purgatorium, neuter (used as a noun) of late Latin purgatorius 'purifying', from the verb purgare (see purge).

‘To be rid of our individuality, which is our will, which is our effort—to live effortless, a kind of curious sleep—that is very beautiful, I think; that is our after-life—our immortality.’ 


And afterwards he loved her—loved her to the last fibre of his being. He loved her. But he wanted, somehow, to cry. There was something he could not bear for her sake. He stayed with her till quite late at night. As he rode home he felt that he was finally initiated. He was a youth no longer. But why had he the dull pain in his soul? Why did the thought of death, the after-life, seem so sweet and consoling?
