Vicissitudes
冲刷的岩石

“the vicissitudes of life”(人生的浮沉)
The vicissitudes of fortune can be unpredictable.(命运的变化难以预测。)

莎士比亚 (文学中的命运无常)
“The whirligig of time brings in his revenges.”
(时间的漩涡终会带来它的报复。)
——《第十二夜》
(注:暗含世事轮转的不可控,类似 “vicissitudes” 的沧桑感)

罗马哲学家塞内卡 (斯多葛学派对变迁的接纳)
“Fate leads the willing, and drags along the reluctant.”
(命运眷顾自愿者,拖拽不情愿者。)
(强调人面对变迁时的态度)

《圣经》传道书 3:1 (宗教视角的必然性)
“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.”
(凡事皆有定期,天下万物皆有定时。)
(万物兴衰的不可逆性)

  1. 近似俚语/谚语
    “This too shall pass.”
    (这也终将过去。)
    ——波斯谚语,强调荣辱盛衰皆为暂时。

“The wheel of fortune turns.”
(命运之轮不停转动。)
(直接呼应 “vicissitudes” 的起伏意象)

“What goes up must come down.”
(上升者必会坠落。)
(俚语,暗指兴衰循环)

  1. 文学作品中直接使用 “vicissitudes” 的例子
    查尔斯·狄更斯《双城记》:
    “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times… in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”
    (开篇的“最好与最坏的时代”即是对时代 “vicissitudes” 的经典描述)

马可·奥勒留《沉思录》:
“Accept the vicissitudes of fate as natural, as the changes of the seasons.”
(将命运变迁视为如四季更替般自然)

爱德华·吉本(Edward Gibbon)《罗马帝国衰亡史》(The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire)
“Vicissitudes of fortune, which spares neither man nor the proudest of his works, which buries empires and cities in a common grave.”
(命运的兴衰变迁不饶恕任何人,也不饶恕他最骄傲的作品,帝国与城市最终都将同葬一穴。)

威廉·莎士比亚(William Shakespeare)《辛白林》(Cymbeline)
“Thou art not certain;
For thy complexion shifts to strange effects,
After the moon: If thou art sad or merry,
Be certain so in thy complexion.”
(Thou art vicissitude itself.)
(你的情绪不稳定,像月亮一样变幻不定。你本身就是变化无常的化身。)

托马斯·卡莱尔(Thomas Carlyle)
“Blessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness. He has a work, a life purpose; he has found it, and will follow it!”
“In all vicissitudes, in all fortunes, we can thus find refuge.”
(找到自己使命的人是有福的;在所有的变化和命运中,我们都可以找到庇护。)

📝 詹姆斯·费尼莫尔·库珀(James Fenimore Cooper)《最后的莫希干人》(The Last of the Mohicans)
“The vicissitudes of life can alter the very nature of man,
but they cannot annihilate the essential character.”
(人生的变迁可以改变人的本性,但无法抹去人的本质。)

📚 纳撒尼尔·霍桑(Nathaniel Hawthorne)
“We are but the sport of fortune’s vicissitudes.”
(我们只是命运变迁的玩物。)
