Teachers’ Notes: обратите внимание студентов на приемы перевода, предложите им использовать уже изученные приемы перевода.
1) В детстве ее Крестная Фея должны была оградить Диану от опасностей и дать ей оружие против сил зла. Хитрости и сообразительности ей надо было дать побольше, а покорности поменьше.
In her childhood Diana should have been protected by Fairy God Mothers, who would have armed her against the tyrants of the world. She should have been blessed with greater cunning, greater brains, less humility.
2) Ее жизнь была настоящей сказкой. Хотя сказка это не история со счастливым концом, после которой сладко спится, а рассказ полный мрачных символов. Вот почему сказки так захватывают и волнуют нас. И вот почему мы не перестаем рассказывать их. Снова и снова. На протяжении очень многих лет. И вот почему история Дианы так волнует нас.
Her life really was a fairytale. In fact fairytales aren’t happy little yarns, but the dark symbolic stories. I think that, perhaps, why we’ve been so disturbed by them? And why we keep telling them to ourselves? Over and over again. Over so many years. I think that’s, perhaps, why we are so disturbed by the story of Diana.
