Le diverse traduzioni di Odi et Amo❤️‍🔥
Odi et amo quare id faciam, fortezza requiris. Nescio, sed fieri sentio et excrucior.
Non sono state poche le difficoltà riscontrate nella traduzione, a cui hanno lavorato numerosi poeti e importanti latinisti.
Ne voglio citare alcune:
La seguente traduzione rispetta il più possibile il significato del carme:
"Odio ed amo. Perché lo faccia, mi chiedi forse./ Non lo so, ma sento che succede e mi struggo".
Quella di Giovanni Pascoli è invece rispettosa della metrica catulliana:
"L'odio e l'adoro. Perché ciò faccia, se forse mi chiedi,/ io, non so: ben so tutta pena che n'ho".
Quasimodo offre una traduzione più letterale e moderna rispetto a Pascoli:
"Odio e amo. Forse chiederai come sia possibile, non so, ma è proprio così e mi tormento"
Il latinista Francesco Della Corte, nella sua traduzione, pone l'accento sul significato etimologico del verbo excrucior:
"Odio e amo. Forse mi chiedi come io faccia. Non so, ma sento che questo mi accade: qui è la mia croce".
Stefano Benni, invece, propone una simpatica traduzione che cerca di mescolare italiano e napoletano, in rima:
"Odio e amo: / fusse che chiedi/ comme faccio? / nunn 'o ssaccio / ma lo faccio / e mme sent' 'nu straccio!"
Qual' è la vostra preferita?

“If I had become a lake… A mirror is all surface but a lake has depths. I would have drawn her in, undine or water nymph, alive inside me.”

I can't read people's opinions on PH for ten minutes straight without feeling a little sick. People not only read with their asses, but also clearly don't care about translations

So annoying that you can't block people on sideblogs
#I'm so sick of people coming here reblogging the same things I reblog sneakily#and tagging the same characters I tag without once reblogging directly from me as if they were#It's like. Okay. You didn't get one single original thought/interpretation#and didn't even do the polite thing of reblogging a couple times from me#I don't know I used to not care#But since that one time in which a rp blog copied even some of my tag-comments it irks me and lowkey creeps me out what can I say#Go away. Create a personality for yourself please. Curate your interpretation of the characters yourself#Read and analyse and select texts and images yourself#It seems dumb but I spend a lot of time doing so for the stuff I reblog and there's often a lot of thoughts#behind why I reblog something tagging something or someone and not anyone else#Often I read the texts and look for them on tumblr on purpose because I want them here#Same with pictures. Sometime so see them or find them in a set and I have to google lens and track them to reblog them here specifically#And yeah often the reblog are very particular to how I read or view characters dynamics and situations#And of course we're all following and reblogging from each other#But when someone who doesn't follow or reblog from me gets sloppy and likes something to unlike it instantly#And I go to their blog and their reblog are basically chronologically what I have reblogged#To the point I can tell which tag they've checked and which one they checked prior to that one#That irks me. Go trip on a peeble. Go make your own blog. It's like copying down to the t someone else's scrapbook#with a sidedish of copying homework I guess. And I don't know. It's like... Does it even mean anything to you?#It does for me because I think of this stuff. I'm fond of this blog and my reblogs for that reason#What does it mean for you if you just reblog pretty much everything in order? Idk it's silly but it really irks me#I find it so impolite and insincere. And it gives me flashbacks of that one person who copied everything 1:1 down to the comments#That was nuts it creeped me out so much#as if they were doing something ilegal* I didn't notice I had run out of space#My queue doesn't run constantly because I think a lot about what to tag and in which order. It's not casual. Posts are linked together#And every tag is well thought through and chosen and often I have half an essay which I don't always write down out of laziness#But I always *want* to. That's why my queue is so often stopped. I have several thousand of posts queued and in drafts#And yet my queue is so slow because I think a lot about what to post tagging what in which order#and have to decide whether or not to write the half essay I have justifying my decision#Which takes me almost or + than 1 hour to write each time bc I must be precise and brief for the tags to fit + often I want to quote things

“A kind of light spread out from her. And everything changed color. And the world opened out. And a day was good to awaken to. And there were no limits to anything. And the people of the world were good and handsome. And I was not afraid anymore.”
— East of Eden, John Steinbeck

[...] the expression on her face was ageless, haunting, as though she possessed in her lithe body an old soul that could not die; centuries in time looked out from those two eyes, she had contemplated life so long it had become indifferent to her.
Daphne du Maurier, My Cousin Rachel, 1951
