11 a labour of Sisyphus
(a labour of Sisyphus (см. a Sisyphean labour))сизифов труд, тяжёлый и бесплодный труд [этим. миф.]; см. a Sisyphenian taskOur military forces, both nuclear and non-nuclear, must be constantly renewed... Our labors are therefore those of Sisyphus, condemned to push a heavy rock to the top of a hill and forced to repeat this onerous task over and over. (R. E. Lapp, ‘Atoms and People’, ch. IX) — Наши вооруженные силы, как оснащенные атомным оружием, так и не имеющие такового, должны постоянно обновляться... Вот почему наши усилия сравнимы только с изнурительным трудом Сизифа, который был вынужден снова и снова вкатывать огромный камень на вершину горы.
