COUSIN BETTY By Honore De Balzac 【貝姨】(傅雷)
“Life cannot go on without a great deal of forgetting.”
―from COUSIN BETTE by Honoré de Balzac
A hypnotic story of hatred, revenge and catastrophe in which Cousin Bette exacts a terrible price from the rich relations who use and humiliate her. This book portrays the world of post-Napoleonic France, where commercial greed and sexual debauchery are rampant among a demoralized ruling class. Along with his wide descriptive range and the astute understanding of society for which he is celebrated, Balzac had immense psychological penetration. All these qualities are fully evident in his story of the ferocious dissembler Cousin Bette and the dense nineteenth-century Parisian milieu in which she plots a terrible revenge on her patronizing relatives.

COUSIN BETTY
By Honore De Balzac
Translated by James Waring
出處末章：
Of course, everybody was quite satisfied and easy. The young people and
the Baroness lauded the model father to the skies, forgetting the death
of the two uncles. Life cannot go on without much forgetting!

沒有遺忘，人生是過不下去的！ (傅雷【貝姨】安徽文藝，p.558)
http://www.shuku.net/novels/foreign/beiyi/beiyi16.html
兩英譯本都有"大量(much/a great deal)遺忘"，傅雷的【貝姨】缺此形容詞。
傅雷末章有幾處"雙關語"，此英文本從缺。
Yes, I looked at the doctor--see, like this,” and he turned
to show three-quarters face, like his portrait, and extended his hand
authoritatively--“and I said:
“The slave was here,
He showed his order, but he nothing gained.
“_His order_ is a pretty jest, showing that even in death Monsieur le
President de Montesquieu preserved his elegant wit, for they had sent
him a Jesuit. I admire that passage--I cannot say of his life, but
of his death--the passage--another joke!--The passage from life to
death--the Passage Montesquieu!”
“那不行！我是大革命培养出来的，虽没有霍尔巴赫①的头脑，那种精神我是有的。现
在，哼！我更是摄政王派，灰火枪手派②，杜布瓦神甫派，黎塞留元帅派！我女人昏了头，
刚才派一个教士到这儿来，想说服我这个崇拜贝朗瑞③的人，跟小娇娘攀朋友的人，伏尔泰
跟卢梭的徒弟！……医生想探探我有没有给病魔压倒，问我：‘你见过神甫了吗？’我可是
照伟大的孟德斯鸠办法。我瞪着医生，瞧，就象这个样子，”他斜着四分之三的身子，威严
的伸着手，跟他画像上的姿势一模一样，“我回答他说：
……那小子曾经来到，
拿出了他的命令，可是什么也没得到。
“孟德斯鸠这里说的命令，是一个很妙的双关语，表示他临死还是才华盖世，因为人家
派去见他的是一个耶稣会教士！④……
我喜欢这一段，固然不是他活的一段，而是他死的一段。
啊！一段这两个字又是双关语！孟德斯鸠的一段！妙！”⑤
①霍尔巴赫（1723—1789）：唯物论哲学家和无神论者。
②火枪手是法国古代用火枪装备的步兵或近卫骑兵。其事迹可看大仲马的小说《三个火
枪手》。
③十九世纪著名歌谣作者，其作品脍炙人口。
④命令与教会的宗派在法语是同一字。
⑤文字的“一段”与生死的“一段”为双关语。
