妄自尊大的人

As in Doctor Faustus, the "deed of gift" invokes the issue of "salvation," though in Frost's parable, the Faustian spirit of America is not merely strengthened temporarily and adventitiously as Faustus was, but instead is actually redeemed from weakness by a surrender to and immersion in the violent destructiveness of nature, self-reliance and war.

如同在「浮士德博士」一剧中，「礼物契约」召唤起「救赎」的问题，在佛洛斯特寓言中，美国的浮士德精神不但暂时而巧合地被强化，而实际上的救赎免於软弱之方，则是要面对大自然的毁灭、人的妄自尊大及战争中，体悟到人力不能胜天，而知所收敛。

In his "Political Dictionary" he later explained that negativism was the key word; that nabob, from the Urdu, meaning governor, hence self-important potentate, was the ideal practitioner of a negative outlook (see the use by John Adams in 1776); and that nattering was meant to denote complaining, but that Stewart Alsop, his pundit-mentor, had told him that the British use was closer to chattering.

他后来在其《政治词典》一书中解释说，"怀疑主义"是上面这个短语的关键词；来自乌尔都语的"大佬"本指总督，所以引申为妄自尊大的要人，用来指持怀疑主义观点者再合适不过（见约翰·亚当斯1776年对nabob一词的用法[注11]）；而nattering这个词被用来指发牢骚，但对他进行言传身教的权威评论家斯图亚特·阿尔索普告诉他说英国人对该词的使用接近chattering。

Here is a dictator gone insane with egotism and vanity, a general grown mutinous with despair, a professor suffering a religious conversion, a writer meekly eating arsenic fed to him by bandits and then joining the Communists, a village witch calling gods into her body in order to frighten women into supporting Chiang Kai-shek, a mother beheading her daughter to prevent her from joining the revolution, a village bride seeking revenge against her "counterrevolutionary" husband, women cutting the flesh of landlords with scissors, concubines and wives leaping into bed with rural cadres to seduce them away from the land reform.
