" Aspires to love, but compromises and settles in love, is not as good as being single! ". This sentence may be a true portrayal of Yang Jiang sister Yang Bi lifelong love.
In the modern and modern literary circle, Yang Jiang is a well-deserved master. Compared with his sister Yang Jiang, Yang Bi seems to have little reputation, but to be honest, Yang Bi is also a rare talented woman.
career, she is a well-known English teacher at Fudan University . The two English works she translated have caused a strong sensation in the translation circle.
In love, her view of love that she will never settle for is even more sober in the world. Her ideal partner in marriage has always been a witty, elegant and knowledgeable partner who can resonate with her love like her brother-in-law, Qian Zhongshu . Perhaps it is true that she never married in her life and died peacefully in her sleep at the age of 46 due to illness.
Yang Bi's Girls' Generation
Yang Bi is 11 years younger than her sister Yang Jiang because she is the youngest in the family. Even when she was in the Anti-Japanese War era, she also received a good education.
Because her mother was in poor health when she was pregnant, Yang Bi's body has been very weak since she was a child. illness is even a normal state in her short life.
Although Yang Bi is often harassed by the disease, her natural optimistic and positive personality is optimistic and positive. Her good education and a strong family learning atmosphere have made her establish a healthy and correct view of the three views.
Like her sister Yang Jiang, her talent in English is also excellent. Yang Bi of Girls' Generation has become a "star English teacher" at Zhendan University's Affiliated High School.
In her English class, there is never dogmatic rote memorization. She pays more attention to cultivating students' practical application abilities.
In Yang Bi's English class, the general communication between teachers and students and friends is a basic model. The cheerful teaching atmosphere allows students to always devote 100% interest.
You should know that in the Republic of China era, there may not be many such "down-to-earth" English teachers in the country who are unique in ?
unique translation
Soon, Yang Bi began her career in translating English works under the advice of Fu Lei and the encouragement and guidance of her brother-in-law Qian Zhongshu. Of course, translation can only be regarded as one of her part-time jobs.
translation is a very boring and difficult task. In that era, most translation scholars translated works were basically "translated by script". Works translated in
look very stiff and lack emotions, and it is difficult for readers to truly penetrate into the world in the novel. Many scholars even have problems with their English understanding, and their translated works are embarrassing that they are very different from the original meaning.
and Yang Bizar are different. She dared to boldly devote her emotions to translation during the translation process. She also put her unique understanding of the original works into the "big box" of translation.
Yang Bi's first English work "Exploiting the World" became popular. Many readers say that reading Yang Bi's works translated by feels like the "original" work, without any sense of incongruity.
The body worsened
1952, because of her outstanding achievements in English teaching, she was transferred to Fudan University at the age of 30. At the same time, she began to translate her second work in her life, " Vanity Fair ".
Because English teaching work itself is very busy, Yang Bi can only do the translation work at night, and Yang Bi has been weak since she was a child. Such staying up all night naturally makes her physical condition worse and worse.
Although the doctor repeatedly warned her not to work hard like this, Yang Bi's strength in her bones and her love for translation made her work like this and she fell ill shortly after the translation of "Vanity Fair" was completed. He died in his sleep in 1968 due to heart failure .
Yang Bi's view of love
I have to say that Yang Bi can be called a "strange woman". In career, she is a completely independent woman, a talented woman with many glories. In love, she can also be called sober in the world! .
Among the many tags on Yang Bi, in addition to the English teacher and translator, lifeless unmarried is also an extremely eye-catching tag for her.
Sister Yang Jiang and brother-in-law Qian Zhongshu are the most perfect fairy couple in Yang Bi's mind. What she yearns for in her inner world is the perfect love like her sister and brother-in-law.
Her ideal partner is also a person like her brother-in-law Qian Zhongshu. She doesn't care whether the other person is rich or has status. What she cares about is knowledge and humor. What she cares about is that the two can have common topics in literature, English, and translation. She cares about the joys and sorrows of the two people are in the same way.
I have to say that Qian Zhongshu is a special "symbol" for Yang Bi, and a "special yardstick" in the love she yearns for.
Because Yang Bi has always been unmarried, and her personality is cheerful and casual, not only does she often discuss various issues with her sister Yang Jiang’s brother-in-law Qian Zhongshu at work, but also in life, she often goes to her sister’s house to have a meal.
Just imagine, how can the fairy love of my sister and brother-in-law not affect her in a subtle way when they get along day and night?
What's more, Yang Bi herself is a new era intellectual woman. The education she received was the higher education of that era. The English teaching and translation work she was engaged in also allowed her to receive a lot of ideas from the West.
These newer and wider ideas also silently affect her view of love. It is precisely because of this that she takes her brother-in-law as her criterion for choosing a spouse and will never marry for her life.
In the 1940s and 1950s, Yang Bina was a perfect goddess. She had a good family background, could win talent, and had a bright career. Not to mention the number of young talents who pursued her, she was at least a few.
However, her unique view of love, coupled with the suitors obviously not reaching the standards of her brother-in-law Qian Zhongshu, and Yang Bi's special family tolerance atmosphere also supports her, which also caused her to go uncommon in the road of love.
Of course, many people also pointed out that the reason why Yang Bi never married in her life was not only because her standards for choosing a spouse were indeed too high, but also because her physical condition was not ideal.
From childhood to adulthood, Yang Bi was weak and sickly. Even Yang Jiang said in her book that Yang Bi's life was dragged down by her ragged body.
Compared with her sister Yang Jiang, Yang must not have as many halos as her sister, but in terms of talent and her unique view of love, she is also a strange woman.
Although she only left two translation works, she left a legend in the English translation circle forever. Her unique view of love that does not bow to the world makes the world remember her even more!
