芸,我想,是中國文學上最可愛的女人。他並非最美麗,因為這本書的作者,她的丈夫,並沒有這樣的推崇,但是誰能否認他是最可愛的女人? - 林語堂《浮生六記》
是沈三白與芸娘的生活記趣,舉凡生活瑣事、枝繁花茂、蟲鳴鳥語、奇山好水皆落入筆下,其間夫妻情深,疏不知羨煞多少後人。林語堂先生甚愛此書,乃著手將其譯為英語,譯後談及芸娘讚曰娶妻如此三生有幸。本書為雙語對照,賞析之餘可詳看語堂先生文學巧思,遊刃於文體的互換。
節錄:
余生乾隆癸未冬卜一月二十有二日,正值太平盛世,且在衣冠之家,後蘇州滄浪亭畔,天之厚我可謂至矣。東坡云:「事如春夢了無痕」,苟不記之筆墨,未免有辜彼蒼之厚。I
was born in 1763, under the reign of Ch'ienlung, on the twenty-second
day of the eleventh moon. The country was then in the heyday
of peace and, moreover, I was born in a scholars' family,
living by the side of the Ts'anglang Pavilion in Soochow.
So altogether I may say the gods have been unusually kind
to me. Su Tungp'o said, "Life is like a spring dream
which vanishes without a trace. " I should be ungrateful
to the gods if I did not try to put my life down on record.
