自序 : Perhaps no other stories have ever been told so often or listened to with so much pleasure as the classic tales of ancient Greece. For many ages they have been a source of delight to young people and old, to the ignorant and the learned, to all who love to hear about and contemplate things mysterious, beautiful, and grand. They have become so incorporated into our language and thought, and so interwoven with our literature, that we could not do away with them now if we would. They are a portion of our heritage from the distant past, and they form perhaps as important a part of our intellectual life as they did of that of the people among whom they originated.
希臘神話故事恐怕是世人傳述最頻繁、也聽得最津津有味的故事了。幾千年來,這些故事為男女老少、凡夫智者、為所有為神秘、美麗和宏偉事物著迷思索的人們帶來無窮的歡樂。希臘神話故事已經融入我們的語言和思想,與我們的文學緊密交織在一起,成為我們心中無法割捨的一部分。它們是遠古時代遺留下來的文化遺產,在現代知性生活當中所占的重要性恐怕與當時並無二致。
That many of these tales should be read by children at an early age no intelligent person will deny. Sufficient reason for this is to be found in the real pleasure that every child derives from their perusal: and in the preparation of this volume no other reason has been considered. I have here attempted to tell a few stories of Jupiter and his mighty company and of some of the old Greek heroes, simply as stories, nothing more. I have carefully avoided every suggestion of interpretation. Attempts at analysis and explanation will always prove fatal to a child's appreciation and enjoyment of such stories. To inculcate the idea that these tales are merely descriptions of certain natural phenomena expressed in narrative and poetic form, is to deprive them of their highest charm; it is like turning precious gold into utilitarian iron: it is changing a delightful romance into a dull scientific treatise. The wise teacher will take heed not to be guilty of such an error.
我在書裡敘述朱比特與眾神的故事,還有其他希臘英雄的故事,我說的就是故事,僅此而已。我很小心避免暗示任何闡釋意義,因為意圖分析和解釋,最後只會破壞讀者看故事的興致。反覆強調這些故事只不過是以敘事體或詩體描述某些自然現象,只會奪走故事的魅力,就如同把珍貴的黃金變成了實用的鐵,把浪漫的傳奇變成枯燥的科學論文。明智的老師會小心避免這樣的錯誤。
It will be observed that while each of the stories in this volume is wholly independent of the others and may be read without any knowledge of those which precede it, there is nevertheless a certain continuity from the first to the last, giving to the collection a completeness like that of a single narrative. In order that the children of our own country and time may be the better able to read these stories in the light in which they were narrated long ago, I have told them in simple language, keeping the supernatural element as far as possible in the background, and nowhere referring to Jupiter and his mighty company as gods. I have hoped thus to free the narrative still more from everything that might detract from its interest simply as a story.
本書每篇故事都各自獨立,可以不照順序閱讀,但是篇篇故事之間還是存在一定的連續性,因此也可以把整本書視為一篇完整的故事。
為了讓現代的青少年更容易瞭解這些故事,我特意選用簡單的語言,並儘量淡化超自然的成分,不把朱比特和眾神突出為宗教神明。
希望這樣的做法,能更增加故事的趣味性。
