Virginia Postrel: The power of glamour

翻译人员: Bo Wang 校对人员: Zhu Jie

You might be wondering why I'm wearing sunglasses,

你可能会疑惑为什么我戴着太阳镜，

and one answer to that is, because I'm here to talk about glamour.

其中的一个答案就是因为我今天的主题是魅力。

So, we all think we know what glamour is. Here it is.

所以，我们都认为自知什么叫做魅力。大家请看。

It's glamorous movie stars, like Marlene Dietrich.

是非常有魅力的影星，比如玛琳·黛德丽。

And it comes in a male form, too --

也有男性。

very glamorous.

非常迷人。

Not only can he shoot, drive, drink -- you know, he drinks wine,

不仅仅因为他可以射击，开车--你知道，他是喝酒的，

there actually is a little wine in there --

事实上他的旁边总是伴随着酒香--

and of course, always wears a tuxedo.

当然，他总是一副绅士模样。

But I think that glamour actually has a much broader meaning --

不过我认为魅力实际上有更为广泛的含义

one that is true for the movie stars and the fictional characters,

其中一部分（当然）那些电影明星和小说人物所展现出来的

but also comes in other forms.

但也有其他的表达方式。

A magazine?

杂志？

Well, it's certainly not this one.

不过，当然不是这本。

This is the least glamorous magazine on the newsstand -- it's all about sex tips.

这是新标准下魅力值最低的杂志--里面充斥着性爱技巧。

Sex tips are not glamorous.

性爱技巧并不具备魅力。

And Drew Barrymore, for all her wonderful charm,

is not glamorous either.

也谈不上具有魅力。

But there is a glamour of industry.

而是美好，干净，60年代初期的样子。

So what do we mean by glamour?

那么到底什么叫做魅力？

Well, one thing you can do if you want to know what glamour means

当然，如果想了解魅力的含义，你可以做的一件事情就是

is you can look in the dictionary.

查看字典

And it actually helps a lot more if you look in a very old dictionary,

而且事实上如果你去查阅很古老的字典会很有用，

in this case the 1913 dictionary.

在这种情况下，这是1913版的字典。

Because for centuries, glamour had a very particular meaning,

因为时代变迁，魅力会相应的有着其特定的含义，

and the word was actually used differently from the way we think of it.

而且这个词汇实际上和我们设想的方式是截然不同的。

You had "a" glamour.

你很有魅力。

It wasn't glamour as a quality -- you "cast a glamour."

这并不是说它是一种品质--你可以将其抛开。

Glamour was a literal magic spell.

魅力是一种字面意义上的魔力咒符。

Not a metaphorical one, the way we use it today,

而不是今天我们所使用的，隐喻的方式。

but a literal magic spell associated with witches and gypsies

而是一种和女巫、吉普赛人紧密联系在一起的魔力咒符

and to some extent, Celtic magic.

And over the years, around the turn of the 20th century,

而且这么多年来，在20世纪的转交之际，

it started to take on this other kind of deception --

魅力开始呈现出一点其他类型的戏法--

this definition for any artificial interest in, or association with,

的魔力咒符，

it was to get you to act against your interest.

它就会使你做出违背自己意愿的事情。

Well of course, in the 20th century,

当然，在20世纪，

glamour came to have this different meaning associated with Hollywood.

魅力开始和好莱坞联系在一起从而拥有了各种不同的含义。

And this is Hedy Lamarr.

这是Hedy Lamarr。

Hedy Lamarr said, "Anyone can look glamorous,

Hedy Lamarr说，“只要你坐在那里装出一副傻样，

all you have to do is sit there and look stupid." (Laughter)

任何人都可以看起来充满魅力。”

But in fact, with all due respect to Hedy --

但是事实上，并无意冒犯Hedy Lamarr--

about whom we'll hear more later -- there's a lot more to it.

我们接下来还会讲到她--其实还有更多的含义。

There was a tremendous amount of technical achievement

创造这种好莱坞式魅力，暗中联系着

数量庞大的科技成就。

There were scores of retouchers and lighting experts and make-up experts.

that was not entirely of this earth -- it was a portrait of a star.

它并不是完全属于这个星球--它是一颗星星的肖像。

And actually, we see glamorized photos of stars all the time --

而且事实上，我们经常看到美化过的各种星星的图片，

they call them false color.

也被称作假色。

Glamour is a form of falsification,

魅力是一种伪造的形式，

but falsification to achieve a particular purpose.

但是通过其要达到某种目的。

It may be to illuminate the star; it may be to sell a film.

或许是去装饰一个星星，或许是营销一部影片。

And it involves a great deal of technique.

这都牵涉到很多的科技因素。

It's not -- glamour is not something --

它并不是--魅力并不是一种--

What glamour is all about -- I took this from a blurb

还有什么和魅力相关的呢--这是我在纽约杂志

in the table of contents of New York magazine,

的目录中的一个宣传广告中发现的，

which was telling us that glamour is back --

这意味着魅力的回归--

glamour is all about transcending the everyday.

魅力的宗旨就是不断进取。

And I think that that's starting to get at what the core

而且我认为这已经开始和

Glamour invites us to live in a different world.

魅力使得我们能够进入另一个世界。

It has to simultaneously be mysterious, a little bit distant --

这同时要求其不得不保持一定的神秘性，一点点的距离。

that's why, often in these glamour shots,

所以你经常可以在这些魅力的摄影中发现，

the person is not looking at the audience,

画面中的人并非看着观众。

omniscient -- too far above us.

无所不知--这一切都使得我们只能敬畏之。

And yet you will see in religious art, saints or the Virgin Mary

然而你可以在宗教艺术中经常发现描绘圣人，或者圣母玛利亚

will often be portrayed -- not always -- in glamorous forms.

的作品--竭力展现出其迷人的一面--虽然并不经常。

As I said earlier, glamour does not have to be about people,

就像我之前说的，魅力并非和人沾上关系

but it has to have this transcendent quality.

但是卓越的品质这一点是不可或缺的。

试想一下超人

the more glamorous they are.

其迷人的色彩就越浓厚。

So you can do a glamorized picture of a car,

因此你可以制作一张魅力跑车的图片，

but you can't do a glamorized picture of traffic.

但是你不能用同样的方式把“交通”描绘出来。

You can do a glamorized picture of an airplane, but not the inside.

你可以制作一张彰显飞机的魅力的图片，但对其内部机制却不能。

The notion is that it's going to transport you,

这是因为那种“被运载”的思想，

and the story is not about, you know, the guy in front of you in the airplane,

而且事实并不是像，你知道，飞机前这个家伙，

who has this nasty little kid, or the big cough.

和他的讨厌的小孩，或者一阵咳嗽。

The story is about where you're arriving,

事情是你到达的目的地，

or thinking about where you're arriving.

或者想到你在哪里到达。

And this sense of being transported

而且这种“被运载”的感觉

is one reason that we have glamour styling.

才是它吸引我们的一个原因。

This sort of streamlining styling is not just glamorous

我们所说的魅力并不在于这种流程化的风格

because we associate it with movies of that period, but because,

因为我们将其同相应时期的影片结合起来了，而是因为，

in it's streamlining, it transports us from the everyday.

在这种流线型的体验中，我们日复一日的被它承载者。

The same thing -- arches are very glamorous.

同样的--拱形是非常富有魅力的。

Arches with stained glass -- even more glamorous.

再加上彩色玻璃--就更加迷人了。

Of course, here you don't feel the cold, or the heat --

当然，这里你不会感到冷，或者是热--

you just see the possibilities.

你看到的只是可能性。

In order to pull glamour off, you need this Renaissance quality

为了顺利的呈现出魅力，你需要这种sprezzatura的文艺复兴

of sprezzatura, which is a term coined by Castiglione

的特性，这个词语的典故是Castiglione在一本书

in his book, "The Book Of The Courtier."

“廷臣之书。”

There's the not-glamorous version of what it looks like today,

在经历了几个世纪以后，这个版本以今天的眼光看来

after a few centuries.

已经不再令人印象深刻了。

And sprezzatura is the art that conceals art.

sprezzatura是那种浑然天成的艺术。

它使得事物简约易懂。

You don't think about how Nicole Kidman is maneuvering that dress --

你不用去向妮可·基德曼是如何穿着那件裙子的，

she just looks completely natural.

这种着装在她身上就是如此的自然。

And I remember reading, after the Lara Croft movies,

而且我还记得在看完Lara Croft电影之后，我阅读着

how Angelina Jolie would go home completely black and blue.

Angelina Jolie如何偏题鳞伤的回到家中。

Of course, they covered that with make-up,

不过当然，伤的痕迹都用彩妆遮盖住了，

because Lara Croft did all those same stunts --

但是Lara Croft也上演了同样的特技，

but she doesn't get black and blue, because she has sprezzatura.

但是因为sprezzatura，她安然无恙。

"To conceal all art and make whatever is done or said appear to be without effort":

隐藏任何事前的痕迹，或者说，使之显得自然。

And this is one of the critical aspects of glamour.

Glamour is about editing.

魅力意味着雕琢。

Look next time you get these catalogs in your mail --

you can usually figure out where they hid the cord.

你可以经常地弄明白他们把杂乱无章的线路藏在哪了。

But there's always this illusion that if you buy this lamp,

但是如果你买下这个灯具的话，总是会有这种幻觉，

you will live in a world without cords. (Laughter)

那就是你生活在一个简洁整齐的世界中。

And the same thing is true of, if you buy this laptop

下一个事实就是，如果你买下这个掌上电脑

or you buy this computer -- and even in these wireless eras,

you don't get to live in the world without cords.

你也不可能生活在没有线路的世界中。

And there she is -- Grace.

这就是--格蕾丝（与“优雅”同音）。

This is the most glamorous picture, I think, ever.

我认为，这是有史以来最优雅的一张图片，

Part of the thing is that, in "Rear Window,"

部分是因为电影“Rear Window”的缘故

the question is, is she too glamorous to live in his world?

问题是，她的优雅是否已经超出了当时的世界？

And the answer is no, but of course it's really just a movie.

答案是否定的，理所当然的，这只是一部电影。

它使得我们进入了一个世界

but it doesn't give us a completely clear picture.

却不将其完整的呈现出来。

And I think if Grace Kelly is the most glamorous person,

而且我认为如果Grace Kelly是最富有魅力的人，

maybe a spiral staircase with glass block may be the most glamorous interior shot,

也许玻璃镶嵌的旋转楼梯是是最富有魅力的室内快照

because a spiral staircase is incredibly glamorous.

因为旋转楼梯拥有如此不可思议的吸引力。

And there's a quote from one of these women, and she talks about,

引用其中一位女士的话，

"As a little girl, I'd admire women at church with beautiful hats.

“当我还是一个小女孩的时候，我非常羡慕那些在教堂戴着美丽礼帽的女士们。

They looked like beautiful dolls, like they'd just stepped out of a magazine.

她们看起来就像漂亮的洋娃娃，好似刚从杂志封面中走出。

But I also knew how hard they worked all week.

但是我也知道她们背后付出的艰辛努力。

Sometimes under those hats there's a lot of joy and a lot of sorrow."

有时候，那些帽子下隐藏的不仅仅是欢乐，还有忧伤。

And, actually, you get more appreciation for glamour

而且实际上，当你发现创造魅力的代价是什么的时候

when you realize what went into creating it.

你才会对其发出更加由衷的赞叹。

Thank you.

谢谢大家。
