The compound is first recorded in 1617 in the sense of "a small book designed to be carried in a pocket.”It is only recently that such books have looked like the paperbound books we are familiar with;these early paperbacks were bound like any book but were smaller in size.The next recorded use ofpocketbook (1685) is again for a book designed to fit in the pocket but this time used for notes or memoranda.The same word was then applied to a case that was shaped like a bookand in which money or papers could be kept.Finally, the wordpocketbook was transferred to yet another container for keeping things, a purse or handbag,rarely fitting in the pocketand not necessarily shaped like a book.Pocketbook 一词的两种词义“钱夹,手袋”和“口袋大小的书”之间的关联通过一点历史知识予以澄清。 这一复合词在1617年被首次记录为“被设计放在口袋里携带的一本小书”的意思。只是到不久前这种书看上去才象我们所熟悉的纸质封皮的书籍;这些早期的纸皮书装订得除了大尺寸上小点之外与其它书都一样。Pocketbook (1685年)的下一个记录下来的用法又是指设计的以适合口袋大小的书, 但这次它却被用来做笔记或便笺。这一词后来又被用来指定形为本书一样的盒子,并且里面可以存放钱或纸张。最后,pocketbook 这个词又转指另一种存放物品的容纳物, 比如一只手袋或手提包,它很少会放得进口袋,形状也不一定象书。〔Humphrey〕English prince and book collector who was arrested for high treason (1447) and died in prison. He contributed the first books to the library at Oxford University.汉弗莱:英国王子和图书收藏家,1447年以重大叛国罪被捕,死于狱中。他捐献的书籍是牛津大学图书馆最早的藏书〔pornography〕Pictures, writing, or other material that is sexually explicit and sometimes equates sex with power and violence.色情资料:直接了当描绘性行为的图片、书籍或其它资料,这些资料往往将性视同于权力和暴力〔pleasure〕Books are her major source of enjoyment.书籍是她快乐的主要源泉。〔tape〕A narrow strip of strong woven fabric, as that used in sewing or bookbinding.带子:一种狭长的由质地坚韧的织物做成的带状物,如用在缝纫或书籍的装订中的〔antiquarian〕Dealing in or having to do with old or rare books.古文物研究收藏的:经营或有关古旧稀有书籍的〔iconography〕A treatise or book dealing with iconography.研究插图的论文或书籍〔Africana〕Materials, such as books, documents, or art objects, relating to the history or culture of African peoples.非洲文献,非洲艺术品:与非洲各民族的历史或文化有关的书籍、文件、艺术品等材料〔ritual〕A book of rites or ceremonial forms.仪式书,典礼书:关于礼仪或仪式形式的书籍〔rhetoric〕A treatise or book discussing this art.修辞学著作:讨论这种艺术的论文或书籍〔Ade〕American humorist whose newspaper columns, plays, and books, such asFables in Slang (1899), reflect the humor and common sense of ordinary people. 艾德,乔治:(1866-1944) 美国幽默作家,其报纸专栏,戏剧以及书籍,例如《俚语寓言故事》 (1899年),反映了普通人的幽默感及见识 〔convey〕The cost of transmitting books by air is very high.空运书籍的费用很高。〔challenge〕a book that challenges established beliefs.对确定的信念表示异议的书籍〔millboard〕A stiff, heavy paperboard used primarily for book covers.书皮纸板:一种硬而重的纸板,主要用作书籍封面〔section〕The character (§) used in printing to mark the beginning of a section.分节号:书籍印刷中某一节开始的标志符号(§)〔chivalry〕The Age of Chivalry was also the age of the horse.Bedecked in elaborate armor and other trappings,horses were certainly well dressedalthough they might have wished for lighter loads.That the horse should be featured so prominently during the Age of Chivalryis etymologically appropriate,becausechivalry goes back to the Latin word caballus, "horse, especially a riding horse or packhorse.”Borrowed from French, as were so many other important words having to do with medieval English culture,the English wordchivalry is first recorded in works composed around the beginning of the 14th century and is found in several senses,including "a body of armored mounted warriors serving a lord" and "knighthood as a ceremonially conferred rank in the social system.”Our modern sense,"the medieval system of knighthood,”could not exist until the passage of several centuries had allowed the perspective for such a conceptualization,with this sense being recorded first in 1765.骑士时代同时也是马的时代。马被用精美的铠甲和其它马饰打扮起来,它们显然穿戴得很好,虽然它们可能会喜欢稍轻一些的负担。在骑士时代马被放在如此显要的地位,这从词源学上来看是恰当的,因为chivalry 一词可追溯到拉丁语中 caballus 一词, 即“马,尤其是用来骑的马或驮马”的意思。象与中世纪英国文化有关的许多其它重要的词一样,英语中chivalry 一词也是从法语中借用来的,最初出现在大约写于14世纪初的书籍中, 当时有好几个含义,其中包括:“为一名贵族服务的一队穿着铠甲、骑着马的武士”和“作为一种被正式授予的社会制度中等级的骑士资格”。我们现代的意义,即“中世纪的骑士制度”,是在几个世纪以后对这样一个概念的视角成为可能之时才出现的,这个意义最早出现在文字记载中是1765年〔mineralogy〕A book or treatise on mineralogy.矿物学书籍或论文:有关矿物学的书籍或论文〔discriminating〕a discriminating collector of rare books; a dish for the discriminating palate.一位有鉴赏力的稀有书籍收集者;为美味鉴赏者而备的一道菜〔bibliotheca〕A collection of books; a library.藏书:书籍的集合;图书馆〔solitude〕"an elegant sufficiency, content,/Retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books" (James Thomson). “一种优雅高尚的充足、满意/退隐、乡村宁静、友谊、书籍” (詹姆士·汤姆逊) |
