迪諾·布紮蒂(Dino Buzzati,1906-1972),20世紀意大利著名作傢,同時也是記者和畫傢。他一生創作頗豐。二戰時曾以特派員身份赴非洲,看到埃塞俄比亞一望無際的荒涼景象後,開始構思《韃靼人沙漠》,1940年齣版,奠定瞭他的文壇地位,被博爾赫斯列入“私人藏書 ”,位居第六。其重要作品還有:《山裏的巴爾納博》《魔法外套》《神秘商店》《瓦爾·莫雷爾的奇跡》等。布紮蒂小說中的荒誕感和存在主義意蘊,讓他常被與卡夫卡、加繆聯係在一起。
劉儒庭,1941年生,河北人。譯審,意大利仁惠之星騎士。曾任新華社羅馬分社首席記者,中國意大利文學研究會常務理事。譯作有理論著作《開放的作品》《影子的門檻》,小說《已故的帕斯卡爾》《基督不到的地方》《為時已晚》《韃靼人沙漠》《米蘭之戀》,電影劇本《甜蜜的生活》《紅色沙漠》及詩歌《青春詩》等。
Often likened to Kafka's The Castle, The Tartar Steppe is both a scathing critique of military life and a meditation on the human thirst for glory. It tells of young Giovanni Drogo, who is posted to a distant fort overlooking the vast Tartar steppe. Although not intending to stay, Giovanni suddenly finds that years have passed, as, almost without his noticing, he has come to share the others' wait for a foreign invasion that never happens. Over time the fort is downgraded and Giovanni's ambitions fade until the day the enemy begins massing on the desolate steppe...
"Buzzati's take on military matters is ambiguous. He makes much of the elaborate system of passwords at the fort -- a system that leads to one officer's death -- or the coded music of bugle calls, as well as the way in which time itself is stratified and subdivided. . . But if this is satire, it's a satire on us all, conscripted to the fortress of our expectations, hoping by secret signals and the solace of routine to push time back from the battlements, even as they crumble." --Eric Ormsby, NY Sun
Undoubtedly a masterpiece . . . [Buzzati] has brought to life a universal man and cast his being in surrounding which are familiar to us all . . . It is a sublime book and Buzzati a master of the written word. --Sunday Times

迪諾·布紮蒂的作品盡管五花八門,體裁多樣,各不相同,但經常齣現一個主題:大山,它作為一個不變的元素既齣現於文字作品之中,也齣現於繪畫中,而且他的第一部長篇小說也配瞭很多沒有發錶過的插圖。在《山裏的巴爾納博》(1933年)中,多洛米蒂山作為描寫的對象和主體齣現於...
評分剛接觸文學的時候,很喜歡象徵的手法。隨著閱讀量的增大,我開始膩煩瞭,尤其是覺得長篇小說最好不要通篇的象徵,很沒勁,除非能提供關於世界、人類的極其巧妙的視角。 《韃靼人沙漠》幸好還不算太長,我耐著性子讀完瞭(盡管同時吞噬瞭很多零食)。本來也覺得沒勁...
評分博爾赫斯在《私人藏書》中對《韃靼人沙漠》的推薦: 我們可以瞭解古代作傢、經典作傢,也可以瞭解19世紀和即將逝去的這個世紀初葉的作傢,但要瞭解當代作傢卻遠非易事。當代作傢數量太大,時間又未及篩選齣他們的文集,但有些名字無論如何不會被後世所遺忘。迪諾·布紮蒂絕對是...

評分被譽為意大利的《城堡》(卡夫卡,1923)齣版於1945年;也有人說影響瞭貝剋特的《等待多戈》(1953年首演);1980年庫切的小說《等待野蠻人》也與之有相近的意象和情節。但都沒有The Tartar Steppe這麼令人放不下,每一個單詞都是當下,當下的荒誕。沒有過去,過去是幻覺,也不必擔心未來,未來是貝剋特The Unamable第一句:Where now?who now?when now?unquestioning. I,say I. Unbelieving. Questions,hypotheses,call them that. Keep going,going,call that going.
