  • 102 humble

    •• humility, humble

    •• * Humility и humble – неудобные слова и для лексикографа, и в переводе реальных текстов. Но прежде чем говорить о переводе, отметим, что некоторые лингвисты, как ни странно, считают эти слова разноплановыми. Характерно такое замечание А. Вежбицкой (о ее трактовке humility – дальше):
    •• I presume that the Latin adjective humilis, unlike the English adjective humble, corresponds in meaning to the noun humilitas ‘humility.’
    •• И это несмотря на то, что этимологические словари ясно указывают на происхождение этого слова: humble – from Latin humilis “lowly, humble.” Да и толковые словари определяют humility как the quality or condition of being humble.
    •• Правда, в выражении to eat humble pie (American Heritage Dictionary: to be forced to apologize abjectly or admit one’s faults in humiliating circumstances – быть посрамленным, вынужденно извиниться, признать свою ошибку) у этого слова другая этимология: pie made from umbles “ edible inner parts of an animal” ( especially deer), considered a low-class food. Так или иначе, следует признать, что при общей этимологии значения слов humility и humble они иногда действительно расходятся довольно существенно.
    •• По мнению Вежбицкой, When one tries to explicate humility in non-metaphorical terms, the task proves unexpectedly hard – despite the extensive Christian literature devoted to the problem.
    •• Правда, ее собственная попытка («фирменная» экспликация через X often thinks something like this, etc.) вряд ли может быть признана удачной, да и вообще определение, претендующее на точность, и something like this, по-моему, несовместимы. Спорны и ее рассуждения о несоответствии английского humility и русского смирение:
    •• If we compare the concept of ‘humility’ with the concept of ‘smirenie’ we see that the differences between them are quite considerable <...> ‘smirenie’ implies a serene acceptance of everything that happens <...> in ‘humility’ the stress is <...> on a desire not to be treated as someone who is better than other people, on a deep dislike of vana gloria, ‘empty glory.’
    •• Интересно, что Новый БАРС под редакцией Ю.Д. Апресяна – вслед за старым, гальперинским, – не дает среди соответствий humility слово смирение (первое соответствие – смиренность). Не так давно вышедший «Словарь религиозной и возвышенной лексики» Д.И. Ермоловича, который я рекомендую всем интересующимся этой тематикой, дает смирение в качестве единственного соответствия. Думаю, тот факт, что разные культуры по-разному интерпретируют некоторые общехристианские или общечеловеческие понятия, не отменяет межъязыковых соответствий.
    •• В современном английском языке слово humility часто употребляется без христианских ассоциаций, просто в смысле lack of vanity or self-importance: humbleness, lowliness, meekness, modesty (Roget Thesaurus). Особенно характерен последний синоним. Иногда в подтексте этого слова что-то вроде «скромного, спокойного достоинства и сдержанности в поведении». В еще большей степени это относится к слову humble.
    •• У всех на памяти высказывание тогда еще кандидата в президенты Дж. Буша в ходе дискуссии с А. Гором, которое часто цитируют неточно или неполно (humble/humbler foreign policy, a humble nation). Вот это высказывание полностью:
    •• I’m not sure the role of the United States is to go around the world and say this is the way it’s got to be. I want to empower people. I want to help people help themselves, not have government tell people what to do. I just don’t think it’s the role of the United States to walk into a country and say, we do it this way, so should you. We went into Russia, we said here’s some IMF money. It ended up in Chernomyrdin’s pocket. And yet we played like there was reform. The only people who are going to reform Russia are Russians. I’m not sure where the vice president’s coming from, but I think one way for us to end up being viewed as the ugly American is for us to go around the world saying, we do it this way, so should you. I think the United States must be humble and must be proud and confident of our values, but humble in how we treat nations that are figuring out how to chart their own course.
    •• Видимо, правильный перевод в данном случае что-нибудь вроде:
    •• ...США следует вести себя скромно – с гордостью и уверенностью в наших ценностях, но не навязываясь странам, которые выбирают свой путь.
    •• Но как быть с humble foreign policy? Humble nation? Ведь именно так часто говорят, особенно в полемическом контексте, например:
    •• As a presidential candidate, George W. Bush stressed the need for America to act like a “ humble nation” in foreign policy.
    •• Может быть, сдержанная внешняя политика, сдержанная нация? Может быть, что-нибудь со словом самоограничение (это не противоречит христианскому пониманию humility)? Или все-таки скромная? Для меня вопрос ясен не до конца.
    •• Наконец, глагол to humble, перевод которого бывает особенно трудным. Словарное определение to make lower in condition or status (AHD) во многих случаях как-то не очень помогает. А первое значение – to humiliate – может и вовсе сбить с толку. Так, в отличном англо-французском словаре Larousse Chambers выражение It was a humbling experience переводится С’était une expérience humiliante. И по-русски Это было унизительно – неверно. Скорее Это стало для меня уроком или Это отрезвило меня.
    •• Пример из журнала Time:
    •• The Normandy invaders’ day in hell humbles me (реакция читателя на номер, посвященный 60-летию высадки союзников в Нормандии).
    •• Здесь можно предложить:
    •• Солдаты нормандского десанта прошли через ад. Я склоняю голову перед их памятью (патетика в русском переводе часто оказывается многословнее).
    •• Стандартный ораторский прием – выражение I am humbled:
    •• I am humbled and honored to have been nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate as the first federal cochairman of the Delta Regional Authority.
    •• Можно усмотреть следующий подтекст: это большая честь, которую еще предстоит заслужить. Но английский оборот воспринимается многими как штамп, можно не особенно церемониться: Для меня это большая, особая честь...
    •• Или, может быть: Я с волнением воспринимаю оказанную мне президентом и подтвержденную сенатом честь – стать первым сопредседателем–представителем федеральных властей в региональной администрации.
    •• Тоже риторический прием: I am humbled to be here in the company of... Может быть, опять-таки Я испытываю волнение, будучи здесь в компании/вместе с...
    •• Еще один пример (здесь, на мой взгляд, выражение употребляется более содержательно и требует не чисто риторического перевода):
    •• All of us in the Congress Party are humbled by the enormous trust reposed in us. (Из письма Сони Ганди) - Все мы в ИНК понимаем, как нелегко будет оправдать огромное доверие, оказанное нам.
    •• Humble и to humble в отличие от русских словарных соответствий относятся к слою активной, а в последнее время даже модной лексики. А это, как правило, источник трудностей в переводе, так как модное слово употребляется расширительно и не совсем точно и к тому же часто обыгрывается. Все это – в примере из «антибушевской» статьи Ричарда Ривза в International Herald Tribune:
    •• We were united and humbled on September 12, 2001. We are divided and humiliated now, telling lies about each other.
    •• Возможно, в переводе здесь важнее не точный смысл, а экспрессия:
    •• 12 сентября 2001 года мы были едины, у нас была общая беда. Сегодня мы разъединены и унижены ложью, которую говорим друг о друге.
    •• Кажется, смиренные общей бедой тоже можно было бы сказать, но, по-моему, русского читателя это может увести несколько не в ту сторону.
    •• Наконец, общеизвестное «в продвинутых кругах» imho ( in my humble opinion): встречающиеся варианты по моему скромному мнению или на мой скромный взгляд выглядят как слегка ироничная, но все же несколько неуклюжая калька. Лучше, наверное, позволю себе высказать мнение, смею думать или по моему скромному разумению.

    •• Наконец, общеизвестное «в продвинутых кругах» imho ( in my humble opinion): встречающиеся варианты по моему скромному мнению или на мой скромный взгляд выглядят как слегка ироничная, но все же несколько неуклюжая калька. Лучше, наверное, позволю себе высказать мнение, смею думать или по моему скромному разумению.

  • 106 tule

    (Sp. model spelled same [túle] < Nahuatl tollin or tullin, 'cattail or sedge')
       Bentley: 1836. Either of two species of bulrushes of the genus Scripus, used to thatch primitive huts. Santamaría glosses it as a reed or bulrush whose leaves are used to weave mats and even curtains and other items. In Mexico the term frequently refers to a species of Cyperus, native to the lakes of the Central Plateau. It may also refer to Seirpus californicus, S. lacustris, Typha angustifolia, and T. latifolia. In the plural, "the tules" refers to an out-of-the-way or desolate place, or "the middle of nowhere." Hence the expressions "to be in deep tules," meaning to be in trouble with the law and "to pull freight for the tules," "to be on the lam." The term is also used in forming numerous compounds. Some examples include: tule elk, tule gnat, tule wren; tule lake, tule land, tule marsh or swamp.
        Alternate forms: toolie, tula, tulé, tuley.

  • 107 amplissime

    amplus, a, um, adj. [some regard this as a shortened form of anapleôs, = filled up, full; others, as for ambulus from amb-, rounded out, as superus from super, etc.; v. Doed. Syn. II. p. 113; but perh. it is better to form it from am- and -plus, akin to -pleo, plenus, q. v. Pott], thus pr., full all round; hence, great, large. —In space, of large extent, great, large, wide, ample, spacious (the forms amplus and amplior are very rare in the ante-class. per., and rare in all periods. Amplius is com. in the ante-class., freq. in the class., and very freq. in the post-class. per., the Vulg. rarely using the other forms, but using this 121 times. Amplissimus belongs to prose, and is scarcely used before Cicero, with whom it was a very favorite word. It was also used by Plin. Maj. and Min., but never by Tac., Sall. (in his genuine works), nor the Vulg. Catullus used only the form amplius, and Prop. only amplus, while Tib. and Pers. never used this word in any form. Ampliter is found mostly in Plaut.; and ample and amplissime are used a few times by Cic. and by writers that followed him; syn.: magnus, ingens, latus, late patens, spatiosus, laxus).

    Amplius, t. t. of judges when they deferred an important case for future examination:

    Charis. 176 P.; so Don. ad Ter. Eun. 2, 3, 39; cf.

    also amplio and ampliatio: cum consules re audita amplius de consilii sententia pronuntiavissent,

    Cic. Brut. 22, 86:

    Amplius non petere, judicial t. phr., to bring no further action, to make no further claim:

    quid ita satis non dedit, AMPLIVS [A SE] NEMINEM PETITVRVM?

    Cic. Rosc. Com. 12, 35:

    Tibi ego, Brute, non solvam, nisi prius a te cavero amplius eo nomine neminem, cujus petitio sit, petiturum,

    id. Brut. 5, 18:

    sunt duo, quae te rogo: primum, ut si quid satis dandum erit, AMPLIVS EO NOMINE NON PETI, cures etc.,

    id. Fam. 13, 28 A:

    quod ille recusarit satis dare amplius abs te non peti,

    id. Att. 1, 8, 1.—
    (γ).
    Hoc amplius, beside the general use given above (II. Comp. b. a), as t. phr. of senators when they approved a measure, but amended it by addition:

    Servilio adsentior et HOC AMPLIVS CENSEO, magnum Pompeium fecisse etc.,

    Cic. Phil. 12, 21, 50:

    cui cum essem adsensus, decrevi HOC AMPLIVS, ut etc.,

    id. ad Brut. 1, 5, 1;

    so Seneca: fortasse et post omnes citatus nihil improbabo ex iis, quae priores decreverint, et dicam HOC AMPLIVS CENSEO, Vit. Beat. 3, 2: Quaedam ex istis sunt, quibus adsentire possumus, sed HOC AMPLIVS CENSEO,

    id. Q. N. 3, 15, 1.—
    (δ).
    To this may be added the elliptical phrases, nihil amplius and si nihil amplius:

    nihil amplius, denoting that there is nothing further than has been declared: sese ipsum abs te repetit. Nihil amplius,

    Cic. Verr. 5, 49, 128;

    (res publica) ulta suas injurias est per vos interitu tyranni. Nihil amplius,

    id. Fam. 12, 1, 2; and, si nihil amplius, marking a limit, if nothing more, at least:

    excedam tectis? An, si nihil amplius, obstem?

    Ov. M. 9, 148.
    ► The form amplius has the ambiguity of the Engl.
    word more, which is sometimes an adj., sometimes a subst., and sometimes an adv., and some of the above examples would admit of different classifications; as, non amplius dicere, not to speak further (adv.) or not to say more (subst.), Plaut. As. 1, 3, 51; but some of them would admit of only one explanation;

    as, ne quos amplius Rhenum transire pateretur,

    Caes. B. G. 1, 43. Sup.: amplissimē.

    placere eum quam amplissime supremo suo die efferri,

    should be carried forth with every possible solemnity, id. Phil. 9, 7, 16. V. on this word, Hand, Turs. I. pp. 287-296.

    Lewis & Short latin dictionary > amplissime

  • 108 amplus

    amplus, a, um, adj. [some regard this as a shortened form of anapleôs, = filled up, full; others, as for ambulus from amb-, rounded out, as superus from super, etc.; v. Doed. Syn. II. p. 113; but perh. it is better to form it from am- and -plus, akin to -pleo, plenus, q. v. Pott], thus pr., full all round; hence, great, large. —In space, of large extent, great, large, wide, ample, spacious (the forms amplus and amplior are very rare in the ante-class. per., and rare in all periods. Amplius is com. in the ante-class., freq. in the class., and very freq. in the post-class. per., the Vulg. rarely using the other forms, but using this 121 times. Amplissimus belongs to prose, and is scarcely used before Cicero, with whom it was a very favorite word. It was also used by Plin. Maj. and Min., but never by Tac., Sall. (in his genuine works), nor the Vulg. Catullus used only the form amplius, and Prop. only amplus, while Tib. and Pers. never used this word in any form. Ampliter is found mostly in Plaut.; and ample and amplissime are used a few times by Cic. and by writers that followed him; syn.: magnus, ingens, latus, late patens, spatiosus, laxus).

    To this may be added the elliptical phrases, nihil amplius and si nihil amplius:

    nihil amplius, denoting that there is nothing further than has been declared: sese ipsum abs te repetit. Nihil amplius,

    Cic. Verr. 5, 49, 128;

    (res publica) ulta suas injurias est per vos interitu tyranni. Nihil amplius,

    excedam tectis? An, si nihil amplius, obstem?

    Ov. M. 9, 148.
    ► The form amplius has the ambiguity of the Engl.
    word more, which is sometimes an adj., sometimes a subst., and sometimes an adv., and some of the above examples would admit of different classifications; as, non amplius dicere, not to speak further (adv.) or not to say more (subst.), Plaut. As. 1, 3, 51; but some of them would admit of only one explanation;

  • 112 sestertius

    sestertĭus, a, um, num. adj. [contr. from semis-tertius], two and a half; only in the phrases sestertius nummus and milia sestertia; v. I. A. and I. B. 1. infra.— Mostly as subst.
    I.
    sestertĭus (written also with the characters HS.; v. B. 4. infra), ii, m. (sc. nummus); also in full: sestertius nummus; gen. plur. sestertiūm; rarely sestertiorum or sestertiūm nummūm, a sesterce, a small silver coin, originally equal to two and a half asses, or one fourth of a denarius. When the as was reduced in weight, during the Punic wars, the denarius was made equal to sixteen asses, and the sestertius continued to be one fourth of the denarius. Its value, up to the time of Augustus, was twopence and half a farthing sterling, or four and one tenth cents; afterwards about one eighth less. The sestertius was the ordinary coin of the Romans, by which the largest sums were reckoned. The sestertium (1000 sestertii) was equal (up to the time of Augustus, afterwards about one eighth less) to
    ► 8 17 s.
    1 d. sterling, or $42.94 in United States coin (v. Zumpt, Gram. § 842; Dict. of Ant. s. v. as, sestertius).
    A.
    In gen.:

    sestertius, quod duobus semis additur (dupondius enim et semis antiquus sestertius est) et veteris consuetudinis, ut retro aere dicerent, ita ut semis tertius, quartus semis pronunciarent, ab semis tertius sestertius dicitur,

    B.
    In partic.

    Col. 3, 3, 8; 3, 3, 9; 3, 3, 10.—
    2.
    To express more than two complete thousands sestertia is used as plurale tantum, with distrib. numerals (rare before the Aug. per.):

    si qui vilicus ex eo fundo, qui sestertia dena meritasset... domino XX. milia nummūm pro X. miserit (= decem milia sestertiūm),

    bis dena super sestertia nummum,

    Hor. Ep. 2, 2, 33:

    Tiberius Hortalo se respondisse ait, daturum liberis ejus ducena sestertia singulis,

    Tac. A. 2, 38:

    princeps capiendis pecuniis posuit modum usque ad dena sestertia,

    id. ib. 11, 7.—Rarely with card. numerals:

    sestertia centum,

    Sall. C. 30, 6:

    septem donat sestertia,

    Hor. Ep. 1, 7, 80:

    centum sestertia,

    Mart. 6, 20, 1:

    sex sestertia,

    id. 6, 30, 1; cf.:

    ne cui jus esset nisi qui... HS. CCCC. census fuisset,

    Plin. 33, 2, 8, § 32.—
    3.
    Millions of sesterces were expressed in three ways:
    a.
    By the words centena (or centum) milia sestertiūm, preceded by a numeral adverb (rare): miliens centena milia sestertium, a hundred millions, etc., Plin. 12, 18, 41, § 84.—
    b.
    With ellips. of the words centena milia, the gen. plur. sestertiūm being preceded by the numeral adv. (rare;

    once in Cic.): HS. (i. e. sestertium) quater decies P. Tadio numerata Athenis... planum faciam (i.e. sestertiūm quater decies centena milia, = 1,400,000 sesterces),

    Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 39, § 100 (where B. and K. after Orell. read. ex conj., sestertium; v. Kühner, Gram. § 229, 5 b.).—
    c.
    With sestertium, declined as subst. neutr., and the numeral adverbs from decies upward (also with ellips. of centena or centum milia; sestertium here = centum milia sestertiūm. The origin of this usage, which became general, has been much disputed, and it is usual to explain it, after Non. p. 495 (cf. Quint. 1, 6, 18), as a grammatical blunder, by which the gen. plur. sestertium has been mistaken for a neutr. sing., Zumpt, Gram. § 873; but it more probably grew out of the adj. use of sestertium with mille, supra; v. Fischer, Gram. 2, p. 269; cf. Neue, Formenl. 1, p. 116; Kühner, Gram. § 209).
    (α).
    Nom. and acc.:

    quom ei testamento sestertium milies relinquatur,

    Cic. Off. 3, 24, 93:

    nonne sestertium centies et octogies... Romae in quaestu reliquisti?

    id. Pis. 35, 86:

    sestertium sexagies, quod advexerat Domitius,

    Caes. B. C. 1, 23, 4:

    sestertium quadringenties aerario illatum est,

    Tac. A. 13, 31:

    sestertium deciens numeratum esse,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 7, § 20; 2, 3, 70, § 163:

    quadringenties sestertium, quod debuisti,

    id. Phil. 2, 37, 93; id. Off. 3, 24, 93; Nep. Att. 14, 2:

    sestertium ducenties ex eā praedā redactum esse,

    Liv. 45, 43, 8; Val. Max. 9, 1, 6:

    sestertium milies in culinam congerere,

    Sen. Cons. ad Helv. 10, 3:

    quater milies sestertium suum vidit,

    id. Ben. 2, 27, 1; Plin. 18, 6, 7, § 37; Tac. A. 6, 45; 12, 22; 12, 53; 13, 31; id. H. 4, 47; Suet. Calig. 37; id. Galb. 5.—Sometimes with ellips. of sestertium:

    dissipatio, per quam Antonius septies miliens avertit,

    Cic. Phil. 5, 4, 11.—
    (β).
    Gen.:

    syngrapha sestertii centies per legatos facta,

    Cic. Phil. 2, 37, 95:

    argenti ad summam sestertii decies in aerarium rettulit,

    Liv. 45, 4, 1:

    sestertii milies servus,

    Sen. Q. N. 1, 16, 1:

    liberalitas decies sestertii,

    Tac. A. 2, 37; 2, 86:

    centies sestertii largitio,

    id. ib. 12, 58; 12, 53; Plin. Ep. 10, 3 (5), 2.—
    (γ).
    Abl.:

    quadragies sestertio villam venisse,

    Varr. R. R. 3, 17, 3:

    sexagies sestertio, tricies sestertio,

    Val. Max. 9, 1, 4:

    centies sestertio cenavit uno die,

    Sen. Cons. ad Helv. 9, 11:

    pantomimae decies sestertio nubunt,

    id. ib. 12, 5; id. Ben. 4, 36, 1; Plin. 8, 48, 74, § 196:

    accepto quinquagies sestertio,

    Tac. A. 3, 17; 6, 17; 16, 13; id. H. 4, 42; Plin. Ep. 3, 19, 7; Suet. Caes. 50; id. Tib. 48; id. Calig. 38, 4.—The sign HS., i.e. II. and semis, stands for sestertius, sestertia, and sestertium, in all the uses described above; when it is necessary, to avoid ambiguity, its meanings are distinguished thus: HS. XX. stands for sestertii viginti; HS. X̅X̅., with a line over the numeral, = sestertia vicena, or 20,000 sesterces; H̅S̅. X̅X̅., with lines over both signs, = sestertium vicies, or 2,000,000 sesterces (Kühner, Gram. § 229 Anm. 1). But in recent edd. the numerals are usu. written in full, when the meaning would otherwise be doubtful.—
    C.
    Transf., in gen.
    a.
    Nummo sestertio or sestertio nummo, for a small sum, for a trifle (good prose):

    ecquis est, qui bona C. Rabirii Postumi nummo sestertio sibi addici velit? Tua, Postume, nummo sestertio a me addicuntur,

    Cic. Rab. Post. 17, 45; Val. Max. 5, 2, 10:

    C. Matienus damnatus sestertio nummo veniit,

    Liv. Epit. 55:

    quae maxima inter vos habentur, divitiae, gratia, potentia, sestertio nummo aestiman da sunt,

    Sen. Ep. 95, 59; Val. Max. 8, 2, 3.—
    * b.
    Money, a sum of money:

    sestertio amplo comparare,

    for a large sum, Sol. 27 (40) fin. —
    D.
    In the times of the emperors, also, a copper coin, worth four asses, Plin. 34, 2, 2, § 4; cf. Eckhel. Doctr. Num. 6, p. 283.—
    * II.
    ses-tertĭum, ii, n., in econom. lang., as a measure of dimension, two and a half feet deep:

    ipsum agrum sat erit bipalio vertere: quod vocant rustici sestertium,

    Col. Arb. 1, 5 (for which:

    siccus ager bipalio subigi debet, quae est altitudo pastinationis, cum in duos pedes et semissem convertitur humus,

    id. ib. 3, 5, 3).
