荒谬的

Through an odd reasoning, starting out from the absurd over the ruins of reason, in a closed universe limited to the human, they deify what crushes them and find reason to hope in what impoverishes them.

Because for us the arbitrariness used by post-modernism was ridiculous— its lack of rigor in the presumed programme of recovery of historic languages, its criticism of the peripheries, dehumanisation, etc.

Novelist and playwright Elfriede Jelinek(1946-) becomes the first Austrian Nobel Laureate of Literature in 2004 "for her musical flow of voices and counter-voices in novels and plays that with extraordinary zeal reveal the absurdity of society' s cliches and their subjugating power."

小说家和剧作家埃尔弗丽德·耶利内克(Elfriede Jelinek，1946-)是奥地利首位获得诺贝尔文学奖的作家。2004年，她因&在她的小说和戏剧中，声音和与之相对抗的声音构成一条音乐的河流，以独特的语言激情揭露了社会庸常中的荒谬与强权&而获得该年度诺贝尔文学奖。

Moraless theories do not appear to have been immediately accepted by the scientific community, to put it mildly, and have been criticised by Spain's National Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Transsexuals and Bisexuals, which sent a letter of protest to the Bolivian embassy in Madrid describing the president's remarks as homophobic.

委婉地说，科学家目前暂时不能接受总统的说法。西班牙的同性恋、双性恋、变性人协会还向马德里的玻利维亚大使馆写信抗议，认为他的言论是恐同症的表现。阿根廷同性恋协会主席说：&认为吃激素过多的食物就会改变性取向，这种看法太荒谬了。&

I was not going there: we were journeying to hear the famous Jabez Branderham preach, from the text -'Seventy Times Seven;' and either Joseph, the preacher, or I had committed the 'First of the Seventy-First,' and were to be publicly exposed and excommunicated.

一开始，我觉得需要一个这样的武器去赢得进入我自己的家的许可实在是荒谬之极，突然一个念头闪过我的脑海，我不是回家，我们是在去听著名的杰贝兹·布拉德汗姆布道的路上，在&七十个七次&者章中，无论是约瑟夫，还是布道者，或是我，都没有看到&第七十一个中的第一次&，因此我们被示众，并被逐出了教会。

On the one hand, it is florid, gorgeous songs and dances and shining light of the golden age, such as the Olympic Games opening ceremony, the Spring Festival gala, a variety of real estate opening ceremonies, nightclubs and urban neon; on the other hand, it is the dark realities of the rogue economy full of evil and injustice, such as demolitions, self-burning,"ant tribe" settlement villages, petitioners villages, begging or singing for a living, and even "the bones of the frozen and the starved lying outside the red-lacquered gates".

这种艺术景观跟我们的国家一样呈现出一个荒谬而差异并置的&进步&画面，一方面是华丽的歌舞升平和灯光四射的盛世景观，如奥运会开幕式、春节晚会、各种房地产开盘仪式、夜总会和都市霓虹灯；另一方面则是充满邪恶和不公正的流氓经济的黑暗现实，如强拆、自焚、蚁族聚居区、**村、街头卖唱乞讨甚至路有冻死骨。

The real devotee knows the absurdity of worshipping the Transcendental Reality with material articles - clothing That which pervades the whole universe and the beyond, putting on a pedestal That which cannot be limited by space, feeding That which is disembodied and incorporeal, singing before That whose glory the music of the spheres tries vainly to proclaim.

真正的奉献者明白到崇拜物质形态的先验实体的荒谬――遍及和超越整个宇宙是包装，放在基架上的伪造物无法超越空间的限制，喂养的是无实质和无实体之物，在神像面前唱颂充满荣耀气氛的天堂音乐是徒劳。
