1、2021/6/71 A VIEW OF MOUNTAINSA VIEW OF MOUNTAINS 群山之景 2021/6/72 Part 1(Para 1)Part 1(Para 1) On August 9, 1945, the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Yosuke Yamahata, a photographer serving in the Japanese army, was dispatched （send off a distination 派遣）to the destroyed city. 1945年8月9日，一顆

2、原子彈投 向長(zhǎng)崎，（日軍）派遣一個(gè)在 軍隊(duì)任職的攝影師川端庸介到 了被破壞的城市。 2021/6/73 The hundred or so (about) pictures he took the next day constitute (compose) the fullest photographic record of nuclear destruction in existence（存 在）.Hiroshima，destroyed three days earlier .bombing. 他在接下來(lái)的日子里拍了近幾百 張圖片，完整記錄了（關(guān)于）原 子能的實(shí)際破壞。在三天前遭受 破壞的廣

3、島，在其爆炸后的第一 天，沒(méi)有記錄下來(lái)。 2021/6/74 It was therefore left to Y a m a h a t a t o r e c o r d ， methodically(systematically 系統(tǒng)的， 有方法的）-and as it happens, with a great and simple artistry（藝 術(shù)性質(zhì)）-the effects.used. 因此，川端庸介留在這里系統(tǒng)地 做記錄。而且，原子能在它被使 用后僅僅幾個(gè)小時(shí)內(nèi)對(duì)人口的影 響，是有著顯著而簡(jiǎn)單的藝術(shù)性 質(zhì)的。 2021/6/75 Some of Yamahatas pi

4、ctures show corpses charred（燒焦） in the peculiar way in which a nuclear fireball chars its victims. 川端庸介的一些圖片顯示，尸 體是以核火球這種特殊的方式 燒焦的。 2021/6/76 They have been burned by light- technically speaking, by the thermal pulse-and their bodies are often branded（打上烙?。?with the patterns of their clothes, whose

5、colors absorb light in different degrees. 從嚴(yán)格意義上來(lái)說(shuō)，他們是被 光和熱脈沖燒焦的。自身衣服 上的圖案常被烙印在他們的身 體上，而這些衣服上的顏色吸 收光的程度不同。 2021/6/77 One photograph shows a horse twisted under the cart it had been pulling. Another shows a heap of （許多） something that once had been a human being hanging over a ledge（壁架） into a ditch.

6、 一張圖片顯示，一匹扭動(dòng)著身 子的馬正在拉載貨馬車(chē)。另一 張圖顯示了一大堆的場(chǎng)景，曾 經(jīng)（鮮活的）人被掛在壁架上 運(yùn)往溝渠。 2021/6/78 A third shows a girl who has somehow survived unwounded standing in the open mouth of a bomb shelter（防空洞） and smiling an unearthly（怪異的） smile, shocking us with the sight of ordinary life, which otherwise seems to have been left

7、 behind for good（永久的） in the scenes we are witnessing. 第三幅圖顯示，一個(gè)不知為何 幸存下來(lái)的小女孩站在防空洞 口，綻開(kāi)了一個(gè)詭異的微笑， (她的笑容)令我們感到震撼， 如果不是這張照片，在我們所 能看到的場(chǎng)景中，我們?cè)鹊?日常生活已經(jīng)永不可見(jiàn)。 2021/6/79 Stretching into the distance on all sides are fields of rubble dotted w i t h f i r e s , a n d , i n t h e background, a view of mountain

8、s. We can see the mountain because the city is gone.That absence, even more than wreckage（殘 ?。? contains the heart of the matter. 照片中，延伸到遠(yuǎn)處，四周 都是大火中的廢墟，背景是 一片群山。我們可以看到群 山，因?yàn)槌鞘幸呀?jīng)消失了。 這個(gè)消失是指連殘骸都沒(méi)有， 甚至包括中心地區(qū)。 2021/6/710 The true measure of the event lies not in what remains but in all that has disappea

9、red. 衡量一個(gè)事物的存在不是取決 于遺留下的，而是已經(jīng)消失的 一切。 2021/6/711 It took a few seconds for the United States to destroy Nagasaki with the worlds second atomic bomb, but it took fifty years for Yamahatas pictures of the event to make the journey back from Nagasaki to the United States. 美國(guó)用世界上第一顆原子彈， 將長(zhǎng)崎夷為平地，只用了幾秒 鐘。然

10、而川端庸介拍攝相關(guān)照 片從長(zhǎng)崎輾轉(zhuǎn)回到美國(guó)，卻用 了半個(gè)世紀(jì)之久。 Part2（Para2-3） 2021/6/712 They were shown for the first time in this country in 1995, at the International Center for Photography in New York. Arriving a half-century late, they are still news. 1995,這些照片第一次在美國(guó) 展出，地點(diǎn)在紐約國(guó)際攝影中 心。即使過(guò)了半個(gè)世紀(jì)之久， 它們?nèi)匀皇寝Z動(dòng)的新聞。 2021/6/713 The p

11、hotographs display the fate of a single city, but their meaning is universal, since, in our age of nuclear arms, what happened to Nagasaki can, in a flash（頃刻間）, happen to any city in the world. 這些照片展示了單個(gè)城市的命 運(yùn)，但具有普遍意義。因?yàn)椋?在核武器年代，在長(zhǎng)崎發(fā)生的 一切頃刻間就可能在世界其他 任何一個(gè)城市發(fā)生。 2021/6/714 In the photographs, Nagasaki

12、comes into its own（找回了自己 的位置）. Nagasaki has always been in the shadow of Hiroshima, as if the human imagination had stumbled to exhaustion in the wreckage of the first ruined city without reaching even the outskirts of the second. 通過(guò)這些照片，長(zhǎng)崎證明了自 己。長(zhǎng)崎長(zhǎng)期處于廣島的陰影 之中，好像人們對(duì)原子彈的想 象在到達(dá)廣島之第一個(gè)被摧毀 的城市，就已經(jīng)就消耗殆盡，

13、 他們甚至連長(zhǎng)崎的邊緣都到達(dá) 不了。 2021/6/715 Yet the bombing of Nagasaki is in certain respects the fitter symbol of the nuclear danger that still hangs over us. It is proof that, having once used nuclear weapons, we can use them again. 它證明，人們一旦使用了核武 器，就可能會(huì)再次使用它。 2021/6/716 It introduces the idea of a series the s

14、eries that, with tens of thousands of nuclear weapons remaining in existence, continues t o t h r e a t e n e v e r y o n e . (Theunpredictable, open-ended character of the series is suggested by the fact that the second bomb originally was to be dropped on the city of Kokura, which was spared Nagas

15、akis fate only because bad weather protected it from view.) 它帶來(lái)了一系列的概念，這世 上仍有數(shù)以萬(wàn)計(jì)的核武器存在 著，對(duì)每個(gè)人的威脅也將持續(xù) 存在著。這一點(diǎn)可以從以下事 實(shí)看出，這第二顆原子彈原本 準(zhǔn)備投向九州，因?yàn)樘鞖獾脑?因，妨礙了視線(xiàn)，長(zhǎng)崎便被改 變了命運(yùn)。這足以說(shuō)明，核爆 炸的后果是無(wú)法預(yù)知和不可估 摸的。 2021/6/717 Each picture therefore seemed not so much an image of something that happened a half- century ago a

16、s a window cut into the wall of the photography center showing what soon could easily happen to New York. 因此，與其說(shuō)是每一張照片記 錄了這半個(gè)世紀(jì)前所發(fā)生的景 象，還不如說(shuō)它們是鑲在攝影 中心墻上的一個(gè)窗口，人們可 以看到即將在紐約發(fā)生的事情。 2021/6/718 Wherever the exhibit might travel, moreover, the view of threatened future from these windows would be roughly a

17、ccurate, since, although every intact city is different from every other, all cities that suffer nuclear destruction will look much the same. 因?yàn)檎褂[無(wú)論在哪里舉行，從 這些窗口我們可以看到將來(lái)的 威脅。盡管每一個(gè)完好無(wú)損的 城市看起來(lái)各不相同，但它們 所遭受的核破壞看起來(lái)是一樣 的。 2021/6/719 Yamahatas pictures afford a glimpse（glance） of the end of the world. 川端庸介的

18、照片讓我們得以一 瞥世界末日的景象。 2021/6/720 Yet in our day, when the challenge is not just to apprehend（worry） the nuclear peril（risk） but to seize a God- given opportunity to dispel it once and for all, we seem to need, in addition, some other picture to counterpoise（平衡） against ruined Nagasaki one showing not w

19、hat we would lose through our failure but what we would gain by our success. 然而當(dāng)前的挑戰(zhàn)不僅僅是去應(yīng) 對(duì)核危機(jī)的恐懼，更要抓住上 帝給予的機(jī)會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)消除核武器 的威脅。而且，我們似乎還需 要更多的照片激起我們對(duì)生活 的希望，來(lái)抗衡毀滅的長(zhǎng)崎帶 給我們世界末日的感覺(jué)-一 張不是展示從失敗中失去的東 西而是表現(xiàn)從成功之中所獲得 之物的照片。 2021/6/721 What might that picture be, though? How do you show the opposite of the end of t

20、he world? Should it be Nagasaki, intact and alive, before the bomb was dropped or perhaps the spared city of Kokura? Should it be a child, or a mother and child, or perhaps the Earth itself? 但是那會(huì)是什么樣的照片呢？ 你怎么展示世界末日里溫馨 的一面呢？它應(yīng)該是在原子 彈落下前完好而富有生機(jī)的 長(zhǎng)崎嗎?又或者是幸存下來(lái)的 小倉(cāng)市？它應(yīng)該是一個(gè)孩子, 或者一對(duì)母子,又或者是地球 本身嗎? 2021/6/722 None seems adequate, for how can we give a definite form to that which can assume infinite forms, namely, the lives of all human beings, now and in the future? Imagination, faced with either the end of the world or its continuation, must remain incom
