书房
My Study

书房，是读书人心目中的一个私人领地，一个精神家园，一个智慧的世界。到过几位朋友家的书房，尽管大小各不相同，陈设各异，但四壁书橱架上，层层叠叠的书籍，或排成整齐的行列，或纵横交错如阡陌丛林，满屋子到处是书，则大体相同。新时期以来，各种多卷本全套硬面精装的文集，形形色色的选集，足以令书房生辉。其间不乏名著佳作，可作为文化积累，但也难免混杂一些文化垃圾。当然，这些都无碍于书房主人坐拥书城之乐。
The study is to a scholar his private domain, his spiritual home and his intellectual world. I’ve been to the studies of several friends. Though of different sizes and with different furnishings, they are nevertheless about the same in boasting a roomful of books. Books shelved in bookcases lining the four walls. Books either piled up one upon another, or displayed in neat rows, or laid out in disorder like fields with crisscross footpaths or a jungle. In recent years, the appearance of various multivolume collected works in deluxe editions as well as selected works of every description has added to the splendor of a study. Among them there is no lack of great classics and master writings. On the other hand, some trash is inevitably mixed with them too. But that doesn’t hinder the owner of the study from enjoying the company of his library.
要点：
1，“但四壁书橱架上，层层叠叠的书籍，或排成整齐的行列，或纵横交错如阡陌丛林，满屋子到处是书，则大体相同”这句话看似结构松散，其实暗藏玄机，我们可以把“满屋子到处是书，则大体相同”看成总括的中心句与上句“尽管…”接应，将“但四壁书架上…丛林”是描述书房具体情况的分句~故可拆译，译为三个分句。
2，“满屋子到处是书，则大体相同“提前，译为they are nevertheless about the same in boasting a roomful of books,其中boast相当于have,但其中包含有”自豪“的内涵，之前我们总结过表示”有…“的词，常见的有possess ,own，以及feature在一定语境下也可以表示”有“，童鞋们平时也要注意积累这些常见的表述~
3，“四壁书橱架上“在原文中作状语，但因其包含的信息量比较大，且意思独立，因此单独拿出来译为Books shelved in bookcases lining the four walls.避免句子太过复杂冗长
4，“…层层叠叠的书籍，或排成整齐的.行列，或纵横交错如阡陌丛林“译为Books either piled up one upon another, or displayed in neat rows, or laid out in disorder like fields with crisscross footpaths or a jungle.译者将在原文中作形容词的”层层叠叠的“进行转换，译为动词~体现了灵活性，另，”纵横交错如阡陌丛林“意即”纵横交错地摆着，像是田间的小路或是丛林“ 译为or laid out in disorder like fields with crisscross footpaths or a jungle.
5，“不乏有…”=there is no lack of
6,” 坐拥书城之乐”即“享受拥有私人藏书馆的乐趣”译为enjoying the company of his library.
书房永远是令人向往的去处。
A study is always a place of enormous appeal to us.
要点：be+抽象名词=形容词，是文学翻译中常用的手法，延长行文的长度，以获得更好的行文效果
我从事笔耕数十年，从来没有一间自己的书房，一间独立的、完整的、名副其实的书房。我多次迁居，从大城市直到外省人烟稀少的小山村。每次搬家时，惟有书籍最累人，也最难舍弃。我爱书，说不上藏书丰富，日积月累倒也可观，几经迁移，不但没有损失，反而日益增多，因为居处的局限，每每有书满为患之感。现在我的卧室就是书房，群书延伸到小卫生间的大书架上，无法腾出一室作书房。
I’ve been engaged in writing for several decades, but I’ve never had a study of my own – a study that is independent, intact and true to its name, that is. I’ve moved many times, once even away from a big city to a remote small mountain village in another province. Whenever I moved, my books, cumbersome as they were, turned out to be the last thing for me to part with. I’m a bibliophile. My collection of books is far from being a big private library, but it keeps growing from day to day. Several times of house moving did not disperse my collection. On the country, it has become larger with each passing day until my small dwelling is overcrowded with them. Now the shelves of books in my study-cum-bedroom extend as far as the tiny toilet. No room is available to serve specifically as a study.
要点：
1，“一间独立的、完整的、名副其实的书房”译为a study that is independent, intact and true to its name, that is.其中“名副其实的“= true to its name，句末的that is意为“换言之”
2，“我爱书”译为. I’m a bibliophile.也是很有新意的，
3，“我的卧室就是书房”即“我的卧室兼书房”译为my study-cum-bedroom，其中cum是介词，作“兼做”解
4，“每次搬家时，惟有书籍最累人，也最难舍弃。”即“每次搬家，尽管我的书是最笨重的，它们却是我最难舍弃的”翻译时增译关联词“尽管“使得行文更加流畅~
然而，在我的文学生涯中，一度也有一间自己的书房。所谓书房，其实是一间贮藏室。那幢在本世纪初落成的陈旧宅第，开间很大，楼下一间屋子就可作为街道办的托儿所。我的一家住在三楼一大间，按今日标准，至少可分成三间，真是大而无当。不过房门外，紧靠楼梯，有一间贮藏室，倒是极为难得的。门一关，可与全家的生活区完全隔绝，避免尚在幼年的孩子们往来干扰。
However, in the course of my career as a writer, I did once own a study, or, to be exact, a storeroom turned study. I was then living in an old house built at the turn of the century. It was quite roomy, so much so that the ground floor served even as a neighborhood nursery. I and family lived in a room on the third floor, which was really big but impractical because, according to today’s standard, it could have been divided into at least three rooms. Fortunately, close to the staircase just outside my room, there was a storeroom, which I regarded as something of great rarity to me because sitting inside it behind the closed door I could cut myself off from my family and work without any disturbance from my small kids.
要点：
1，“所谓书房，其实是一间贮藏室。“译为to be exact, a storeroom turned study.其中storeroom turned study 即”由储藏室改造的书房“，和《西欧的夏天》中castle turned hotel(城堡改造的旅馆)构造原理是一样一样滴~
2，“大而无当“= big but impractical
3，“房门外，紧靠楼梯”= close to the staircase just outside my room，多状语时并列译出来也是一种方法~
4,” 极为难得的(事)“= something of great rarity
