39、ents：在此不能直译为“黑色的事件”。我们知道，英文中有许多由表示颜色的同构成的短语，它们通常都带有某种感情色彩，所以这里可译为“磨难或厄运”。 10true conquest：意详为“真正的胜利”。 11calamity：译为“磨难，灾难”。 12large and advancing：修饰的是“历史”，因此可灵活译为“无边无际、不断发展的”。5.Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, an
