And when we have our naked frailties hid そして、私たちの裸の弱さを隠した時に that suffer in exposure, むき出しのままでは苦しい (この部分はour naked frailtiesを修飾する形容詞節。つまり、関係代名詞thatの先行詞はour naked frailties) let us meet and question this most bloody piece of work 集まって、この最もむごたらしい仕業を調べよう to know it further. それがもっと分かるように “our naked frailties ... that suffer in exposure”(むき出しだと苦しい、私たちの裸の弱点)というのは、王様が殺されたことによる怒り・苦悩・驚愕・混乱のようなことだろうと思います。 すぐ前に、マクベスが「かっとなって犯人を殺してしまった」のようなことを言っていますから(それは本当は嘘なのですが)、そのことを受けての発言ではないかと思います。 要するに、「我々の心のもろさを隠してから(=心を落ち着けてから)、皆で集まって事件の取調べをしよう」と言っているのだと思います。 間違っていたらごめんなさい。

#1です。間違えていたようなので、訂正します。 http://www.clicknotes.com/macbeth/S23.html こちらの解説サイトをみると、やっぱり#2の方が正しくて、“our naked frailties that suffer in exposure”は「むき出しだと(寒くて)つらい、裸のひ弱さ」ということのことのようです。 ぱっと見たときは“naked frailties”は心理的な弱さを比ゆ的に表現したものだとばかり思っていましたが、そうではなくて、MacduffとLennox以外はみんな寝巻きのままなので、スコットランドの寒さが裸にこたえるということらしいです(とはいえ、寝巻きは着ているので、素っ裸というわけではないようですが・・・)。

わざわざ訂正ありがとうございます。 比ゆ表現を使っているわけではないんですね。 でも、先ほども述べたのですが、シェークスピアの作品のセリフなら、最初のような意味も含まれているような気がします。 (解説サイトが英語なので、私にはよくわかりませんでしたが、参照リンクしていただきありがとうございました) 意味どおりの表現の中に、このような比ゆ表現も含まれているかもしれないというくらいの読みでいいのかもしれませんね。 自分なりに納得できました。 本当にありがとうございました。

  • 自然な日本語に…

    シェイクスピアのマクベスで、マクベス夫人の様子を綴った文章です。 This brings out the full force of the she-monster's(女怪物の) fury and scorn expressed in two little words that mockingly echo Macbeth's doubts: "We fail?" この文章なのですが、意味はわかるのですが(We fail?の二語に込められた怒りや軽蔑心が…)綺麗な日本語にできません。that以下も、どう繋げればいいか…。 あらすじは、マクベスが王になり、夫人が女王になるために今の王を殺そう、と夫人が提案しているところです。が、マクベスは腰が引けている状態。Thisというのは、この文章の前にマクベスが弱弱しく呟いた「If we should fail?」というセリフになります。 This brings out~の部分も、直訳すると不自然になってしまいますよね。。 上手く訳せる方、ご協力お願いします。

You are finicky and fussy in love, very discerning and discrete in the period before you meet him you may become entangled in a relationship that was never really intended, but seemed perfect at the time and then have the greatest difficulty in extricating yourself from it. You may also suffer some poor health, or may be concerned with diet, health hygiene and well-being and be leading a quiet secluded life when you meet him. Virgo can be extreme, either very prudish and virginal or else secretly very passionate behind locked doors, and usually there is a duality in the character about love and sex. The moment love is over, you move on from the past and seek the future. The dictates of your own soul are often suppressed by a fear of making demands on love, or seeming too weak and needy. You may dislike yourself, your body, your looks, your own desires, part of you never feels good enough, loved enough. You keep yourself and your needs too imprisoned, too much under control. In love you have to learn to let go, to give, and be free.

     Gone foe the most part are the days when parents decreed and children bowed meekly. More often now, parents (and aunts, uncles, grandparents, family friend and neighbors)consult extensively with the bride-to-be or groom-to-be and find out what they would like in a partner. Then keeping in mind their offspring's interests, temperament and family background, they send out feelers into the community. In Indian communities all over the world, once they locate likely prospects, they create a venue (often a party at a common friend's home )for the young people to meet informally. If the "couple" like each other, they are encouraged to meet again, so that they may get to know each other. The final decision - to marry or to look further - is theirs to make.  Friends, who have been brought up on a diet of Hollywood movies where couples go off starry-eyed into the sunset, are still suspicious. "But how can you stand to marry someone you don't love?" they ask. "How can you be happy together?"

These ratios fall into three categories. Liquidity ratios and leverage ratios seek to answer the question,"Where do they stand?" The former focus on a company's ability to meet its near-term cash requirements, while the latter look at the relationship between liabilities and shareholders' equity. Profitability ratios,which assess a company's profitability, are one approach to answering the question, "How did they do?"

    Soseki received several replies to his ad. In July 1901,he moved into a boarding house run by two elderly women,Miss Leale and her sister. The sisters were sophisticated and the environment suited Soseki. He lived there about one and a half years until he left Britain. Soseki was fairly happy there,but his mind was troubled by many things. From the time Soseki first started studying English literature at university,he had been obsessed with one simple question: “What is literature?” He hadn’t yet found a clear answer―the purpose for his life. In Britain he hoped to find the answer. In reality,however,studying English literature as scholarship was a fairly new concept even in Britain. After six months of studying in Britain,he finally realized that he would have to create his own theories on literature. Ikeda kikunae’s logical way of thinking had inspired him. From then on,he avoided social life,spending most of his time alone reading books and thinking. Eventually,his closed lifestyle led to a mental breakdown. 以下の質問に英語で答えなさい。 1, What question was always on Soseki’s mind? 2, What inspired Soseki to create his own literary theories? 3, Why did Soseki suffer a mental breakdown? 和訳と問題よろしくお願いします。

    The increased amount of heavy artillery was to be used to destroy German concrete shelters and machine-gun nests, which were more numerous in German "battle zones", than the "outpost zones" which had been captured in July and August and to engage in more counter-battery fire. Few German concrete pill-boxes and machine gun nests had been destroyed during earlier preparatory bombardments and attempts at precision bombardment between attacks had also failed. The 112 heavy and 210 field guns and howitzers in the Second Army on 31 July, were increased to 575 heavy and medium and 720 field guns and howitzers for the battle, which was equivalent to one artillery piece for every 5 ft (1.5 m) of the attack front and more than double the density in the Battle of Pilckem Ridge. Plumer's tactical refinements sought to undermine the German defence by making a shallower penetration and then fighting the principal battle against German counter-attack (Eingreif) divisions. By further reorganising infantry reserves, Plumer ensured that the depth of the attacking divisions roughly corresponded to the depth of local German counter-attack reserves and their Eingreif divisions. More infantry was provided for the later stages of the advance, to defeat German counter-attacks, by advancing no more than 1,500 yd (1,400 m) before consolidating their position. When the Germans counter-attacked they would encounter a British defence-in-depth, protected by artillery and suffer heavy casualties to little effect, rather than the small and disorganised groups of British infantry that the Germans had driven back to the black line on the XIX Corps front on 31 July. Minor operations During a lull in early September, both sides tried to improve their positions; on 1 September, a determined German attack at Inverness Copse was repulsed. Further north in the XIX Corps area, a battalion of the 61st Division rushed Hill 35 but only took a small area; another attempt on 3 September failed.
