英语著述中很少有“传统”这个词出现,我们不说“这种传统”或“一种传统”,最多用它的形容词形式,说某个诗人的诗作“很传统”或“太传统”。字里行间总少不了一种责难的味道。除非是一些公认的古典作品才不至遭此鄙薄。 Few words in the English writings appear “traditional”, we do not say “this tradition” or “a tradition”, most of its adjectives form, that a poet’s poem “very traditional” or “too traditional” . There is always a taste of censure between lines. Unless it is recognized some of the classical works will not be despised.
