Часть текста: правильный перевод основного смысла "curee". [85] Увы, оно не распространяется в стороны метафорической "добычи" и т. д. Интересно, кстати, как перевел Пастернак в своем вульгарном и невежественном "Гамлете" фразу "this quarry cries on havoc". [86] Мне очень нравится польское "отпpава"! Есть ли лингвистическая связь между "curee" и "шкурой"? [87] Искренне Ваш В. Набоков ПС. Ваша статья о Беpбеpовой [88] справедлива. Между прочим, я опровергаю точность ее дамской памяти (идиотский анекдот, напp[имеp], о моем "pахманиновском" смокинге) в статье о фестшpифте, [89] которая появится в следующем Тpайкуоpтеpли. [90] Примечания [85] Во французском слово "curee" обозначает часть дичи, отдаваемой на охоте собакам, т. е. "подачка". В переносном смысле - "добыча". [86] Начало монолога Фоpтинбpаса в последней сцене "Гамлета" - "This quarry cries on havoc. O proud death…" ("Эта свора псов беснуется над грудой растерзанных трупов. О гордая смерть…") - Пастернаком переведено так: "Кругом лежит и стынет прах убитых. / В чертогах смерти, видно, пир горой, / Что столько жертв кровавых без разбора / Она нагромоздила…". Как видно и по этому фрагменту, Пастернак стремился в...

Часть текста: years lived in an opulent hotel built in 1835, which still retains its nineteenth-century atmosphere. Their suite of rooms is on the sixth floor, overlooking Lake Geneva, and the sounds of the lake are audible through the open doors of their small balcony. Since Mr. Nabokov does not like to talk off the cuff (or "Off the Nabocuff," as he said) no tape recorder was used. Mr. Nabokov ei! ther wrote out his answers to the questions or dictated them to the interviewer; in some instances, notes from the conversation were later recast as formal questions-and-answers. The interviewer was Nabokov's student at Cornell University in 1954, and the references are to Literature 311-312 (MWF, 12), a course on the Masterpieces of European Fiction (Jane Austen, Gogol, Dickens, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Stevenson, Kafka, Joyce, and Proust). Its enrollment had reached four hundred by the time of Nabokov's resignation in 1959. The footnotes to the interview, except where indicated, are provided by the interviewer, Alfred Appel, Jr. For years bibliographers and literary journalists didn't know whether to group you under "Russian" or "American. "Now that you're living in Switzerland there seems to be complete agreement that you're American. Do you find this kind of distinction at all important regarding your identity as a writer? I have always maintained, even as a schoolboy in Russia, that the nationality of a worthwhile writer is of secondary importance. The more distinctive an insect's aspect, the less apt the taxonomist is to glance first of all at the locality label under the pinned specimen in order to decide which of several vaguely described races it should be assigned to. The writer's art is his real passport. His identity should be immediately recognized by a special pattern or unique coloration. His habitat may confirm the correctness of the determination but should ...

Часть текста: Trapp, as I had dismissed my convulsions on the lawn at Champion, I could do nothing with the anguish of knowing Lolita to be so tantalizingly, so miserably unattainable and beloved on the very even of a new era, when my alembics told me she should stop being a nymphet, stop torturing me. An additional, abominable, and perfectly gratuitous worry was lovingly prepared for me in Elphinstone. Lo had been dull and silent during the last laptwo hundred mountainous miles uncontaminated by smoke-gray sleuths or zigzagging zanies. She hardly glanced at the famous, oddly shaped, splendidly flushed rock which jutted above the mountains and had been the take-off for nirvana on the part of a temperamental show girl. The town was newly built, or rebuilt, on the flat floor of a seven-thousand-foot-high valley; it would soon bore Lo, I hoped, and we would spin on to California, to the Mexican border, to mythical bays, saguaro desserts, fatamorganas. Jos Lizzarrabengoa, as you remember, planned to take his Carmen to the Etats Unis. I conjured up a Central American tennis competition in which Dolores Haze and various...
