An Englishman Discovers India
因为放不下全文,节选出其中的一部分
全文是A flat mediocrity pervades the city which E.M.Forster has created as the scene of A Passage to India:
Except for the Marabar Caves — and they are twenty miles off — the city of Chandrapore presents nothing extraordinary.Edged rather than washed by the river Ganges,it trails for a couple of miles along the bank,scarcely distinguishable from the rubbish it deposits so freely.The streets are mean,the temples ineffective,and though a few fine houses exist they are hidden away in gardens or down alleys whose filth deters all but the invited guest.There is no painting and scarcely any carving in the bazaars.The very wood seems made of mud,the inhabitants of mud moving….As for the civil station (the English quarter),it provokes no emotion.It charms not,neither does it repel.It is sensibly planned,with a redbrick club on its brow,and farther back a grocer’s and a cemetery,and the bungalows are disposed along roads that intersect at right angles.It has nothing hideous about it,and only the view is beautiful; it shares nothing with the city except the overarching sky.
Such is the setting:the people and the events are hardly more remarkable.The former are middle-class English and Indians.No one is very rich or very poor,outstandingly wicked or outstandingly virtuous,none are more intelligent or more stupid than one would expect to find in such a place.Nor are there any heroisms or oppressions,no one is particularly cruel or violent,and the centre of the plot is a crime that was never committed.Yet in this setting and within these limits the most profound human emotions are experienced — pity,terror,love,hate,fear and exaltation,friendship and the final loneliness of the soul in the waste places.And out of it all Forster has contrived one of the very few novels of our time which have the unquestionable stamp of greatness.
