8 go native
•• * Выражение to go native стало частотным сравнительно недавно. Особенность его в том, что оно может встретиться в самом неожиданном контексте. Вот, например, цитата из передовой статьи Wall Street Journal:
•• Mr. Bush is proposing spending increases in only two big discretionary accounts: defense (7%) and homeland security (10%). Most other domestic areas would rise by less than 1%, which may sound onerous but really isn’t considering the outlay boom that has prevailed since the GOP Congress began to go native in the late-1990s.
•• На первый взгляд не совсем понятно. Эта фраза встречалась мне раньше в основном в контекстах, касающихся людей, живущих в чужой стране и постепенно вживающихся (иногда слишком) в ее культуру. Так, для дипломата слова he has gone native звучат обвинением. Заголовок статьи на эту тему:
•• When diplomats go native: Roh ready to fire “ United States worshiping” diplomats. (Речь идет о Корее)
•• Автор поясняет выражение так:
•• In my last post, I talked about how Tom Cruise’s character in The Last Samurai “ went native;” that is he rejected his own culture and adopted that of the locals.
•• Другая трактовка этого выражения в статье из журнала Atlantic:
•• A U.S. official overseas, photographed and registered with the local intelligence and security services, can’t travel much, particularly in a police-rich country like Pakistan, without the “ host” services’ knowing about it. An officer who tries to go native, pretending to be a true-believing radical Muslim searching for brothers in the cause, will make a fool of himself quickly.
•• То есть работать под местного.
•• Статья на сайте www.cfo.com, названная Going Native, фактически посвящена адаптации к условиям глобализации, что ясно уже из ее подзаголовка:
•• Globalization brings exposure to all kinds of business cultures. One former CFO says finance managers need to blend the best of them.
•• Характерная цитата:
•• In a paper released in January this year, Jim O’Neill, head of global economic research at Goldman Sachs, explains that “globalization requires not only incorporating local best practices, but also taking local best practices back to home countries and continuously adapting them to current conditions.”
•• Новое издание Oxford English Dictionary дает следующее определение: go native (humorous or derogatory, of a person living away from their own country or region) abandon one’s own culture, customs, or way of life and adopt those of the country or region one is living in.
•• Таким образом, to go native может означать освоиться в/приспособиться к непривычной среде, слиться с местной культурой, грубо говоря, с «туземцами», «аборигенами» ( natives), приспособиться к новым обстоятельствам, вжиться в новую ( для себя) среду.
•• Но как же быть с первыми двумя примерами? Wall Street Journal критикует нынешний, преимущественно республиканский состав Конгресса США за несоблюдение консервативных принципов бюджетной дисциплины. Стало быть, по мнению газеты, под воздействием традиционного для Конгресса расточительства республиканцы «переродились». Этот же перевод вполне подходит и во втором примере: дипломаты (и герой Тома Круза) перерождаются, фигурально говоря, «переходят на чужую сторону». Впрочем, последний вариант я не предлагаю в качестве перевода – это все-таки очень сильное обвинение.
•• Интересный пример из заметки о Стинге и его жене – активных борцах за сохранение тропических лесов, последователях йоги и т. д.:
•• Wholesome singer Sting and wife Trudie Styler have found a new way to go native – riding camels for five days in India.
•• Здесь to go native – что-то вроде убежать от цивилизации.
•• И последнее замечание. Возможно, что оксфордская помета humorous or derogatory не всегда верна. См. такой пример – подзаголовок статьи из журнала Time:
•• U.S. special forces in Afghanistan are going native in their hunt for al-Qaeda’s No. 1.
•• В тексте находим пояснение того, что имеется здесь в виду:
•• Increasingly, the job of persuading locals to provide intelligence on the whereabouts of al-Qaeda and Taliban leaders is being carried out in remote outposts <...>, where small groups of U.S. special forces live side by side with local tribesmen.
•• В переводе можно попробовать, например:
•• Американские спецвойска « идут в народ» в погоне за лидером/первым лицом « Аль-Каиды».
•• Судя по тексту статьи, ничего уничижительного автор не имел в виду, просто «подвернулось словцо».

19 Vauban, Sébastien de
[br]b. 15 May 1633 St-Léger-de-Fougeret, Château Chinon, Nièvre, Franced. 20 March 1707 Paris, France[br]French civil and military engineer.[br]Born of impecunious parents, Vauban joined Condé's regiment as a cadet in 1651, at the age of 17, although he had apparently acquired some knowledge of mathematics and fortifications in the Carmelite College of Semur-en-Auxois. In the war of the Fronde he was captured by the Royal troops in 1653 and was converted to the king's service. He was soon recognized as having engineering ability and was given the task of repairing the fortifications of Sainte-Menehould. During the next few years he was engaged on fortification repairs and assisting at sieges, including Ypres, Gravelines and Oudenarde in 1658. Vauban found favour with the king, Louis XIV, and was responsible for the fortifications of Lille, which had been captured in 1667; he commenced the defensive structures of the citadel and the town in 1668. These were completed in 1674 and consisted of a vast pentagonal fort with bastions and further detached works surrounded by water defences. In 1692 he was present at the siege of Namur and was responsible for its capture. He was then put in charge of re-establishing and improving the defences. He next developed a line of fortresses along the French border. He later was abandoned by the king, whom he had served so well, and, with his advice being ignored by the French forces, they suffered defeat after defeat in Marlborough's wars.Meanwhile he had been called in to inspect the recently completed Canal du Midi and subsequently made recommendations for its improvement. These included the extension of the Montagne Noire feeder, and the construction of the Cesse and Orbiel aqueducts which were carried out to his design and under his supervision in 1686–7. In 1700 he was consulted on and produced a plan for a canal across France from north to south, providing a barge waterway from Nîmes to Dunkirk, but this was not carried out.In 1703 he was created maréchal de France, and two years later he devised vast schemes for the development of the canal system in Flanders. Owing to determined opposition from the local people, these schemes were abandoned and not revived until 1770, by which time the locals were prepared to accept them.[br]Further ReadingSir Reginald Blomfield, 1938, Sébastien lePrestre de Vauban, 1633–1707, Methuen.
