英国著名剧作家肖伯纳曾根据希腊神话故事,写过一出喜剧。大意是,塞浦路斯国王皮格马利翁,擅长雕刻,他花了数十年的心血,终于雕成了一具象牙的美女雕像。这具雕像倾注了他如此多的心血,雕刻得如此完美,以至于皮格马利翁情不自禁地爱上了她。 George Bernard Shaw, a famous British playwright, wrote a comedy based on Greek myths. To the effect that Pigeon Marion, king of Cyprus, is good at carving, he spent decades of effort, finally carved into a beautiful ivory statue. The statue devoted so much effort that it was so perfectly carved that Pygmalion fell in love with her.
