《增广贤文》 ~ 中国古文翻译-经典英译-中英双语赏析-古诗与典籍

《增广贤文》。又名《昔时贤文》《古今贤文》,是中国明代时期编写的儿童启蒙书目。书名最早见之于明万历年间的戏曲《牡丹亭》,据此可推知此书最迟写成于万历年间。《增广贤文》集结中国从古到今的各种格言、谚语。后来,经过明、清两代文人的不断增补,才改成现在这个模样,称《增广昔时贤文》,通称《增广贤文》。

《增广贤文》(节选)

昔时贤文,诲汝谆谆。

集韵增文,多见多闻。

The wisdom of ancient aphorisms

Has been instructing people earnestly,

This expanded poetic collection of them

Can add knowledge to your philosophy.

(胡晓阳 译)

The wise sayings of old can instruct you again and again, for the knowledge scope they contain is as vast as a main.

To understand present, one should first know the past because without the past there is no the present.

(郭著章 译)
