波愛修斯《哲學的慰藉》！ (Boethius’s Consolation of Philosophy)
- I was pondering thus in silence and using my pen to set down so tearful a complaint, there appeared standing over my head a woman's form, whose countenance was full of majesty, whose eyes shone as with fire and whose power of insight surpassed that of all men. His visitor is a metaphorical figure whom Boethius terms Lady Philosophy. Lady Philosophy is carrying a pile of classical books in one hand and a sceptre in the other and she has come to visit Boethius in his cell in order to remind him of some of the fundamental truths of his favourite subject, largely as defined by the Stoic school of Greece and Rome. That she should have dropped in on him was, in a sense, no surprise. In the classical world, philosophy was not an abstract academic discipline. It was a set of tools specifically designed to help one live and die well, with particular relevance at the darkest moments. Lady Philosophy begins by gently chiding Boethius for flaring up against his fate. She reminds him, as Stoic philosophers had constantly stressed, that human beings are not in control of most of what happens to them. Our destiny is in large measure in the hands of a devilishly powerful, seductive goddess whom the Romans knew as Fortuna, the goddess of fortune. This figure was a central deity in the Roman pantheon and was represented across the Roman world on coins and statues. She was typically depicted holding a cornucopia in one hand, overflowing with fruit and luxuries, and on the other leaning on a tiller, a marker of her capacity to direct people's fates. Depending on her mood, fortune might either shower us with gifts or, with a blithe smile, steer us towards catastrophe. To be a philosopher means to understand all that fortune controls, to resist her blandishments, to know never to put complete faith in the things that are, ultimately, always in the hands of an immoral and reckless force, and to prepare for the day when we may have to surrender her gifts at a stroke.
我正默默地思考著，用筆寫下這催人淚下的控訴時，一個女人的身影出現在我的頭頂，她的面容充滿威嚴，她的眼睛像火一樣閃亮，她的洞察力超越了所有人。他的來訪者是一個隱喻性的人物，波愛修斯稱之為哲學女士。哲學夫人一手拿著一堆古典書籍，一手拿著權杖，她來拜訪波愛修斯的牢房，是為了提醒他一些他最喜歡的學科的基本真理，這些真理主要是由希臘和羅馬的斯多葛學派所定義的。從某種意義上說，她突然造訪波愛修斯並不令人意外。在古典世界，哲學並不是一門抽象的學科。它是一套工具，專門用來幫助一個人活得好和死得好，在最黑暗的時刻尤其適用。
- Boethius must, like any good philosophically inclined person, stop trusting in anything that fortune can take away at once. You know there is no constancy in human affairs when a single swift hour can often bring a man to nothing. If you are in possession of yourself, you will possess something you would never wish to lose and something fortune could never take away. Happiness cannot consist in things governed by chance. Boethius must retreat to what the Stoic philosophers called his inner citadel, a minimal self immune from the cruelty of fortune. Lady Philosophy stresses that a different sort of happiness can be found by focusing on all that fortune can never make one lose, specifically one's powers of reasoning, which give one access to the beauty, mystery and complexity of the universe. True philosophers rise above their immediate circumstances, become indifferent to their own fate and identify with the vast forces of history and nature. It is a measure of the relevance of Boethius' message that we today so firmly identify happiness with two areas that lie entirely in the hands of fortune, romantic love and career success.
波愛修斯必須像任何有哲學傾向的好人一樣，不再相信任何命運可以立即奪走的東西。要知道，人世間沒有永恆不變的東西，因為一個迅速的小時往往會讓一個人一無所有。如果你擁有自己，你就會擁有你永遠不願失去的東西，也是命運永遠無法奪走的東西。幸福不可能是偶然的。波愛修斯必須退回到斯多葛派哲學家所說的內心城堡，一個不受命運殘酷摧殘的最低限度的自我。女哲學家強調，通過關注命運永遠不會讓人失去的一切，特別是一個人的推理能力，可以找到一種不同的幸福，這種推理能力可以讓人接觸到宇宙的美麗、神祕和複雜。真正的哲學家會超越眼前的環境
