- The Merchant of Venice剧情介绍：威尼斯富商安东尼奥为了成全好友巴萨尼奥的婚事，向犹太人高利贷者夏洛克借债。由于安东尼奥贷款给人从不要利息，并帮夏洛克的女儿私奔，怀恨在心的夏洛克乘机报复，佯装也不要利息，但若逾期不还就从安东尼奥身上割下一磅肉。不久以后，传来了安东尼奥的商船失事的消息，他的资金周转不灵，无力偿还贷款。夏洛克去法庭控告，根据法律条文要安东尼奥履行诺言。为救安东尼奥的性命，巴萨尼奥的未婚妻鲍西娅假扮律师出庭。她答应了夏洛克的要求，但要求所割的一磅肉必须正好是一磅肉，不能多也不能少，更不能流血。夏洛克因无法执行而败诉，害人不成反而失去了财产。第四幕第一场威尼斯 Act IVScene I Venice. A Court of Justice.(Enter the Duke; the Magnificoes; Antonio, Bassanio, Gratiano,Salarino, Salanio and Others)法庭公爵、众绅士、安东尼奥、巴萨尼奥、葛莱西安诺、萨拉里诺、萨莱尼奥和其他人等同上。 Duke: What, is Antonio here?Antonio: Ready, so please Your Grace.公爵：安东尼奥到了没？安东尼奥：到了，殿下。 Duke: I feel sorry for you. Because the opponent you will face in court is a stonehearted , inhuman, and unsympathetic wretch who lacks 公爵：我为你感到很遗憾，因为你即将面临的法庭对手有一副铁石心肠，是个毫无人性、不懂得怜悯与同情，一贯缺乏慈爱之心的恶人。 Antonio: I have heard Your Grace hath ta'en great pains to qualify hisrigorous course; but since he stands obdurate and that no lawful meanscan carry me out of his envy's reach, I do oppose my patience to his fury,and am arm'd to suffer, with a quietness of spirit, the very tyranny andrage of his.安东尼奥：我听说您已经竭尽全力，试图阻止他的任意妄为。但是，既然他固执己见，不肯让步，而且没有任何合法的手段可以救我脱离这个犹太人的毒手，我必定要用忍耐来对抗他的愤怒，我准备好了以平常的心态承受他残暴的处置。 Duke: Go one, and call the Jew into the court.公爵：来人，传那犹太人到庭。 Salarino: He's ready at the door: he comes, my lord.萨拉里诺：他就在门口等着。他来了，殿下。 (Enter Shylock)Duke: Make room, and let him stand before our face. Shylock, theworld thinks, and I think so too, that thou but lead'st this fashion of thymalice to the last hour of act; and then 'tis thought thou'lt show thy mercyand remorse more strange than is thy strange-apparent cruelty; andwhere thou now exact'st the penalty, which is a pound of this poor mer-chant's flesh, thou wilt not only loose the forfeiture, but, touch'd with hu-man gentleness and love, forgive a moiety of the principal; glancing aneye of pity on his losses, that have of late so huddled on his back, enowto press a royal merchant down, and pluck commiseration of his statefrom brassy bosoms and rough hearts of flint, from stubborn Turks andTartars, never train'd to offices of tender courtesy. We all expect a gentleanswer,（夏洛克上）公爵：大家让开点，让他站在我的面前。夏洛克，人家都以为而且我也是这样想的，尽管你到了最后时刻仍然表现得残酷无情，实际上却会大发慈悲，你体恤人的方式一定比你的残酷行为更加出人意料。虽然你现在坚持按约处罚，要从这个可怜的商人身上割下一块肉来，但你最终可能不仅会放弃处罚，而且会因为心中的友爱之情，免除他的一部分欠款，你看看他最近遭受的巨大损失，即使是像国王那样富有的人也免不了倾家荡产，全国人包括心肠坚硬得像顽石一样的人、从未受过教育的野蛮人、彬彬有礼的宫廷官员，都会同情他的境遇。犹太人，我们都在期待你作出温和的答复。 Jew.Shylock: I have possess'd Your Grace of what I purpose; and by ourholy Sabbath have I sworn to have the due and forfeit of my bond: if youdeny it, let the danger light upon your charter and your city's freedom.You'll ask me, why I rather choose to have a weight of carrion flesh thanto receive three thousand ducats: I'll not answer that: but, say, it is my hu-mour: is it answer'd? What if my house be troubled with a rat, and I bepleas'd to give ten thousand ducats to have it ban'd? What, are you an-swer'd yet? Some men there are love not a gaping pig; some, that are madif they behold a cat; and others, when the bagpipe sings i the nose, can-not contain their urine: for affection, mistress of passion, sways it to themood of what it likes, or loathes. Now, for your answer; as there is no firm reason to be render'd, why he cannot abide a gaping pig; why he, a harm-less necessary cat; why he, a woollen bagpipe; but of force must yield tosuch inevitable shame as to offend, himself being offended; so can I giveno reason, nor I will not, more than a lodg'd hate and a certain loathing Ibear Antonio, that I follow thus a losing suit against him. Are you an-swer'd?夏洛克：我的意思已经向殿下禀告过了；我也曾指着圣安息日起誓，一定要照约处罚安东尼奥。如果您不答应我的请求，那就是违反了宪章，威尼斯城邦的特权就有被取消的危险。如果您问我为什么我宁愿选择一块腐肉而不是三千块钱，我无言以对，我只能说我愿意这样您满意我的回答吗？假如我的房间里有老鼠，我高兴出一万块钱把它们斩尽杀绝，那又怎么样？怎么，您明白我的意思了吗？我就这样和您说吧，为什么有人忍受不了一只烤乳猪，或者一只无辜且有益处的猫，为什么有的人听到风笛声就情不自禁地露出丑相，所有这些癖好都没有合适的理由，所以我也给不出理由，也不愿意寻找任何借口，我仅仅是处于对安东尼奥的宿怨和反感，才提出对他的诉讼，这样回答可以吗？ Bassanio: This is no answer, thou unfeeling man, to excuse the cur-rent of thy cruelty.巴萨尼奥：这个回答不行。你这个冷酷无情的人，这也不能让人谅解你的残忍作为！ Shylock: I am not bound to please thee with my answer.夏洛克：我的回答本来也不是为了讨好你。 Bassanio: Do all men kill the things they do not love?巴萨尼奥：难道人们对于他们所不喜欢的东西，都一定要置之死地吗？ Shylock: Hates any man the thing he would not kill?夏洛克：恨一个人难道就不能灭掉他吗？ Bassanio: Every offence is not a hate at first.巴萨尼奥：初次的冒犯，不应该就引为仇恨吧。 Shylock: What! wouldst thou have a serpent sting thee twice?夏洛克：什么！你愿意让毒蛇咬两次吗？ Antonio: I pray you, think you question with the Jew: you may aswell go stand upon the beach, and bid the main flood bate his usualheight; you may as well use question with the wolf why he hath made theewe bleat for the lamb; you may as well forbid the mountain pines to wagtheir high tops and to make no noise when they are fretten with the gustsof heaven; you may as well do anything most hard, as seek to soften that-than which what's harder? his Jewish heart: therefore, I do beseechyou, make no more offers, use no farther means, but with all brief andplain conveniency, let me have judgment, and the Jew his will.安东尼奥：请你记住，你是在和这个犹太人讲话，你和他讲道理，不如站在海滩上，请求海潮不要涨到平常的高度；不如质问豺狼，为什么惹得母羊因失去羔羊而啼哭；你做任何事，都比求那犹太人的心变软要简单，所以我请你不要再白费力气，就让我痛痛快快地接受裁决，任那犹太人如愿以偿吧！ Bassanio: For thy three thousand ducats here is six.巴萨尼奥：欠三千块钱，现在还你六千元。 Shylock: If every ducat in six thousand ducats were in six parts andevery part a ducat, I would not draw them; I would have my bond.夏洛克：即使这六千块钱中间的每一块钱都分成六份，每一份都变成一块钱，我也不要；我只要照约行事。Duke: How shalt thou hope for mercy, rendering none?公爵：你没有一点慈悲之心，将来怎能期望得到别人的同情？ Shylock: What judgment shall I dread, doing no wrong? You haveamong you many a purchas'd slave, which, like your asses and your dogsand mules, you use in abject and in slavish parts, because you boughtthem: shall I say to you, let them be free, marry them to your heirs? Whysweat they under burdens? Let their beds be made as soft as yours and lettheir palates be season'd with such viands? You will answer the slaves areours: so do I answer you: the pound of flesh, which I demand of him, isdearly bought；tis mine and I will have it. If you deny me, fie upon yourlaw! There is no force in the decrees of Venice. I stand for judgment: an-swer; shall I have it?夏洛克：我没做什么错事，难道会害怕任何裁决吗？你们买了许多奴隶，就因为他们是用钱买来的，你们让人家当牛做马，干各种低贱肮脏的活儿，那么我可不可以对你说，还他们自由吧，让他们和你们的子嗣结婚？为什么他们要忍受重负、流血流汗？可不可以让他们的床铺和你们的一样柔软，让他们的食物和你们的一样鲜美？你们可能会说，奴隶是你的，怎样处置都不关我的事。同样，这一磅肉是属于我的，是我用昂贵的代价换来的，是我的东西，我就要得到它。如果您拒绝我的请求，就说明威尼斯的法令就是一纸空文！就让你们的法律见鬼去吧！我现在等候着裁决。请告诉我，我可以拿到我的一磅肉吗？ Duke: Upon my power I may dismiss this court, unless Bellario, alearned doctor, whom I have sent for to determine this, come here today.公爵：我已经差人去请培拉里奥一位有学问的博士，来替我们审判这件案子；他今天就会到的，我此刻有权宣布休庭。 Salarino: My lord, here stays without a messenger with letters fromthe doctor, new come from Padua.Duke: 萨拉里诺：殿下，外面有一个信差在候着呢，带着这位博士的信，刚从帕度亚来。 Bring us the letter: call the messenger.公爵：呈上信来，传信差。 Bassanio: Good cheer, Antonio! What, man, courage yet! The Jewshall have my flesh, blood, bones and all, ere thou shalt lose for me onedrop of blood巴萨尼奥：高兴起来吧，安东尼奥！喂，老兄，不要灰心！这犹太人可以把我的肉、我的血、我的骨头，我的一切都拿去，可是我决不让你为了我而流一滴血。 Antonio: I am a tainted wether of the flock, meetest for death: theweakest kind of fruit drops earliest to the ground; Bassanio, than to live still, and write mine epitaph.安东尼奥：我是羊群里一头不中用的病羊，死亡是我的最终命运；我是果实中最脆弱的一颗，应该尽早结束我的一生，巴萨尼奥，你要活下来为我写墓志铭。 Enter Nerissa, dressed like a lawyer's clerk )Duke: Came you from Padua, from Bellario?Nerissa: From both, my lord. Bellario greets Your Grace.（尼莉莎扮律师书记上）公爵：你是从帕度亚的培拉里奥那里来的吗？尼莉莎：是，殿下。我代培拉里奥向您转达诚挚的问候。 ( Presents a letter )Bassanio: Why dost thou whet thy knife so earnestly?（递上一封信）巴萨尼奥：你这样使劲儿磨着刀干吗？ Shylock: To cut the forfeiture from that bankrupt there.夏洛克：从那破产的家伙身上割下那磅肉来。 Gratiano: Not on thy sole, but on thy soul, harsh Jew, thou mak'st thyknife keen; but no metal can, no, not the hangman's axe, bear half thekeenness of thy sharp envy. Can no prayers pierce thee?葛莱西安诺：狠心的犹太人，你不是在鞋口上而是在心口上磨刀，你的刀那么锐利，没有任何武器即使是刽子手的钢刀，都赶不上你这恶毒心肠一半的锋利。难道什么肯求都不能打动你吗？ Shylock: No, none that thou hast wit enough to make.夏洛克：不能，你想尽一切办法都不能改变我的初衷。Gratiano: O, be thou damn'd, inexecrable dog! And for thy life letjustice be accus'd. Thou almost mak'st me waver in my faith to hold opin-ion with Pythagoras, that souls of animals infuse themselves into thetrunks of Men: thy currish spirit govern'd a wolf, who, hang'd for humanslaughter, even from the gallows did his fell soul fleet, and, whilst thoulay'st in thy unhallow'd dam, infus'd itself in thee; for thy desires arewolfish, bloody, starv'd and ravenous.葛莱西安诺：万恶不赦的狗，看你死后不下地狱！让你这种东西活在世上，真是天理难容。你的灵魂由一只狼控制着，它吃了人，被送上绞刑架，而它肆虐的灵魂逃到你不义的娘胎里，你就是恶狼再世，所以性情像狼一般狠毒、凶残、血腥味十足。 Shylock: Till thou canst rail the seal from off my bond, thou but of-fend'st thy lungs to speak so loud: repair thy wit, good youth, or it willfall to cureless ruin. I stand here for law.夏洛克：除非你能把契约上的印章骂掉，不然你这样大嚷大叫只会白白地气坏了你的肺，何苦来呢？年轻人，否则你会愚钝到无法收拾的地步。我是来等候裁决的。 Duke: This letter from Bellario doth commend a young and learneddoctor to our court. Where is he?公爵：培拉里奥在信中推荐一位年轻且有学问的博士出席我们的法庭。他在哪儿？ Nerissa: He attendeth here hard by, to know your answer, whetheryou'll admit him.尼莉莎：他在附近等候您的回复呢。不知您现在是否允许他进来。 Duke: With all my heart. Some three or four of you go give him cour-teous conduct to this place.Meantime, the court shall hear Bellario's letter.公爵：非常欢迎。你们去三四个人，恭恭敬敬地领他到法庭上来。同时，法庭将宣读培拉里奥的来信。 Clerk: ( Reads ) Your grace shall understand that at the receipt of yourletter I am very sick; but in the instant that your messenger came, in lov-ing visitation was with me a young doctor of Rome; his name is Balthasar.I acquainted him with the cause in controversy between the Jew and An-tonio the merchant: we turned o'er many books together: he is furnishedwith my opinion; which, bettered with his own learning-the greatnesswhereof I cannot enough commend-comes with him, at my importunity,to fill up Your Grace's request in my stead. I beseech you, let his lack ofyears be no impediment to let him lack a reverend estimation, for I neverknew so young a body with so old a head. I leave him to your graciousacceptance, whose trial shall better publish his commendation.书记：（读）“尊翰到时，鄙人抱疾方剧；适有一青年博士鲍尔萨泽君自罗马来此，致其慰问，因与详讨犹太人与安东尼奥一案，遍稽群籍，折中是非，遂恳其为鄙人代庖，以应殿下之召。凡鄙人对此案所具意见，此君已深悉无遗；其学问才识，虽穷极赞辞，亦不足道其万一，务希勿以其年少而忽之。盖如此少年老成之士，实鄙人生平所仅见也。倘蒙延纳，必能不辱使命。敬祈钧裁。” Duke: You hear the learn'd Bellario, what he writes: and here, I takeit, is the doctor come.(Enter Portia, dressed like a doctor of laws )公爵：你们都听到培拉里奥博士的信了吗？我想，现在来的这位就是博学的鲍尔萨泽先生吧！ Duke: Give me your hand. Come you from old Bellario?（鲍西娅扮鲍尔萨泽上）公爵：把您的手给我。请问，您是从培拉里奥老先生那里来的吗？ Portia: I did, my lord.鲍西娅：正是，殿下。 Duke: You are welcome: take your place. Are you acquainted with the difference that holds this present question in the court?公爵：欢迎您！您请坐！想必您对这个案件中双方的争端都十分明确了吧？ Portia: I am informed throughly of the cause. Which is the merchanthere, and which the Jew?鲍西娅：我都非常清楚了。只是，哪位是那个商人，哪位是犹太人？ Duke: Antonio and old Shylock, both stand forth.公爵：安东尼奥和老夏洛克，你们都站上来。 Portia: Is your name Shylock?鲍西娅：你就是夏洛克吗？ Shylock: Shylock is my name.夏洛克：夏洛克是我的名字。 Portia: Of a strange nature is the suit you follow; yet in such rule thatthe Venetian law cannot impugn you as you do proceed. You stand withinhis danger, do you not?鲍西娅：你打的这场官司很奇怪；但是，根据威尼斯的法律，你的控诉倒也无可厚非。你的生死命运掌握在他的手里了，对吗？ Antonio: Ay, so he says.安东尼奥：嗯，他是这么说的。 Portia: Do you confess the bond?鲍西娅：你承认这借约吗Antonio: I do.安东尼奥：我承认。Portia: Then must the Jew be merciful.鲍西娅：那么夏洛克应该仁慈一些。 Shylock: On what compulsion must I? Tell me that.夏洛克：凭什么我必须得慈悲让步呢？您告诉我！Portia: The quality of mercy is not strain'd, it droppeth as the gentlerain from heaven upon the place beneath: it is twice bless'd; it blessethhim that gives and him that takes:'Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it be-comes. the throned monarch better than his crown; his sceptre shows theforce of temporal power, the attribute to awe and majesty, wherein dothsit the dread and fear of kings; but mercy is above this sceptred sway, itis enthroned in the hearts of kings, it is an attribute to God himself, 鲍西娅：慈悲缘自一种本性。它不但给幸福于受施的人，也同样给幸福于施予的人；它有至高无上的权威，比皇冠更能显示帝王的尊贵。君主的权杖代表着世俗的威力，凸显皇帝陛下的高位，且使百姓对王权畏惧万分；而慈悲则雄踞权杖之上，它受冕于帝王的心中，是天国神权的象征，倘与公平正义为伍，便能使世俗的权力如同神权一样熠熠生辉。因此，犹太人，虽然你的诉求合乎法律，我们却无法从中看到拯救人的希望，为此我们祈祷慈悲降临，愿上帝赐予所有人慈悲的胸怀。我说了这么多，是希望你能不要坚持原来的诉求，做一点好事。当然，如果你坚持己见，威尼斯的法律是公正无私的，法庭一定会秉公惩处那个商人的。 Shylock: An oath, an oath, I have an oath in heaven: shall I lay per-jury upon my soul? No, not for Venice.夏洛克：我的事情我做主。我要求法庭按照契约处罚安东尼奥。Portia: Why, this bond is forfeit; and lawfully by this the Jew mayclaim a pound of flesh, to be by him cut off nearest the merchant's heart.Be merciful: take thrice thy money; bid me tear the bond.Shylock: When it is paid according to the tenour. It doth appear youare a worthy judge; you know the law, your exposition hath been mostsound: I charge you by the law, whereof you are a well-deserving pillar,proceed to judgment: by my soul I swear there is no power in the tongueof man to alter me. I stay here on my bond.Antonio: Most heartily I do beseech the court to give the judgment.Portia: Why then, thus it is: you must prepare your bosom for hisknife.Shylock: O noble judge! O excellent young man!Portia: For the intent and purpose of the law hath full relation to thepenalty, which here appeareth due upon the bond.Shylock:'Tis very true! O wise and upright judge!How much moreelder art thou than thy looks!Portia: Therefore lay bare your bosom.Shylock: Ay, his breast: so says the bond: doth it not, noble judge?'Nearest his heart'those are the very words.Portia: It is so. Are there balance here to weigh the flesh?鲍西娅：他的确无力偿还欠款吗？巴萨尼奥：不是，我们能还钱，我现在就可以当庭还清借款，哪怕是三倍的数目也可以！如果他嫌少，我可以给他十倍的钱，并用我的手、头和心做抵押。如果还不行，就显然是用仇恨压倒公理，存心害人了。那么我请求您，将法律稍稍变通一下，在犯一点儿小错的同时，做成一件大事，千万不要让这恶人的欲望得逞。鲍西娅：那可不行，在威尼斯没有任何特权能变更既成的法律，要是开了这一恶例，许多违法行为会随之而来，涌入城邦，这万万不行！ Shylock: I have them ready.Portia: Have by some surgeon, Shylock, on your charge, to stop hiswounds, lest he do bleed to death.Shylock: Is it so nominated in the bond?Portia: It is not so express'd; but what of that? 'T were good you doso much for charity.夏洛克：一位但尼尔来断案了！啊，但尼尔再世！明智的年轻的法官啊，我该怎样赞美你才好呢？鲍西娅：愿上帝保佑你！让我看一看你的契约。夏洛克：在这儿，我最最尊敬的先生，契约在这儿。鲍西娅：夏洛克，他们愿意出三倍的钱来还你。 Shylock: I cannot find it:'tis not in the bond.夏洛克：不行，不行，我已经对天发过誓啦！难道让我背信弃义吗？绝对不行，把整个威尼斯都给我也不可以！ Portia: You, merchant, have you any thing to say?Antonio: But little. I am arm'd and well prepar'd.Give me your hand,Bassanio: fare you well! Grieve not that I am fallen to this for you; forherein Fortune shows herself more kind than is her custom; it is still heruse to let the wretched man outlive his wealth, to view with hollow eyeand wrinkled brow an age of poverty; from which lingering penance ofsuch a misery doth she cut me off.Commend me to your honourabl
