苦炼 Google Books Douban
L'Oeuvre Au Noir
★ 9.1 (45 ratings) author: [法] 玛格丽特·尤瑟纳尔 translator: 段映虹 publishing house: 上海三联书店 2012 - 4
《苦炼》以16世纪动荡不安的欧洲社会为背景,但透过岁月的多棱镜,却折射出了人类命运始终面临的一些根本问题。整个小说里,火是泽农化身,泽农与火之间是一种内在的、天然的、持久的联系。在众多火的意象中,智慧之火、知识之火很早就唤起了他的强烈的求知欲以及永不满足的对物质世界和精神世界的好奇心。普罗米修斯神话的第二个陷喻形象即具有锤炼和再造功能的冶炼之火。对于炼丹师泽农而言,火是主宰物质的手段和形式,也是统治世界的工具;同时,火改造物质的功能加速了物质的变革和自然界的时间节奏。冶炼之火赋予人以破坏时间规律的神圣权力。这种超越人类条件并拥有神圣力量的愿望和梦想与泽农在所有领域的反叛精神是相辅相成的。

"It's just a matter of trial and error. You try something, it doesn't work. You try it another way, maybe it works even less well, or maybe it works a little bit better. It really is the dark room that Henry James describes. It's a sort of groping, and continuously trying things out, and understanding why something fails. The key is to try to understand what are the elements that are failing, and why, and then you move on to the next draft with a little bit more of clarity."
