注释- Considering the various great roles in the theater,such as Hamlet or Lear, or the various roles we play, such as parent or teacher, employer or employee,it is difficult to think back to a time in the history of the wordrole when none of these important associations was present. Role, which is first recorded in English in 1606, came to us from French with the sense "a part one has to play.”Obviously the development of the sense familiar to us had already occurred in French,where the wordrôle in its earlier history (Old French rolle ) had meant "a roll, as of parchment,” particularly with reference to a manuscript roll.The word could also mean "a legal document" or "a list or register.”From such use it also came to refer to the text from which an actor learned a part.This use brought the word into the world of the theater where it has played an important role ever since.考虑到剧中各种各样的伟大人物，如哈姆莱特或李尔王或我们所扮演的家长、老师、老板或雇员等各种角色，如果不想到这些重要的联系，便很难追忆起role 在历史上使用的时间。 Role 一词源于法语，意为“某人不得不扮演的角色”，于1606年首次载入英语。显然，我们所熟悉的词义发展已出现在法语中。法语中Role 一词在更早的时候（古法语 rolle )就表示“羊皮纸卷”， 尤指羊皮纸手稿。该词也可指“法律文件”或“名录，记录”。由此而引申为演员所背的台词全文。从此，该用法把该词引入戏剧界，并在剧院扮演了重要角色
