Abstract

Abstract:This essay focuses on an allusion to Hemingway's deep-sea fishing in Pound's Canto 40. The most direct source for Pound's allusion is probably Hemingway's letter to Pound dated 22 July 1933, in which he refers to his catching a world-record seven marlin in one day. Set in context, Pound's line about the record-setting, unnamed marlin fisherman groups him with monopolists who "extracted" natural resources such as oil for their private profits at the expense of the common good. Pound's reference in Canto 40 to Hemingway as a record-breaking marlin fisherman reflects tensions between the two writers that deepened in the 1930s.
海明威的马林鱼和庞德的第40章
摘要:本文主要研究庞德《深海捕鱼》第40章对海明威深海捕鱼的典故。庞德的暗示最直接的来源可能是1933年7月22日海明威写给庞德的信,他在信中提到自己在一天内捕获了七条马林鱼,创下了世界纪录。庞德的这句关于创纪录的、不知名的马林鱼渔民的台词,将他与以牺牲公共利益为代价,“开采”石油等自然资源以谋取私利的垄断者联系在一起。庞德在第40章中提到海明威是一个破纪录的马林鱼渔夫,这反映出两位作家之间的紧张关系在20世纪30年代加深了。
