“In complete darkness and amid the vile odor, hardly breathing, with thick masks covering our noses and mouths, we measured, drew, and photographed with flashlights for several hours,” Liang wrote.
“我们戴着厚厚的口罩掩盖口鼻,在完全的黑暗和难耐的秽气中好几个小时地测量、画图和用闪光灯照相,”梁思成写到。
“When at last we came out from under the eaves to take a breath of fresh air, we found hundreds of bedbugs in our knapsack. We ourselves had been badly bitten. Yet the importance and unexpectedness of our find made those the happiest hours of my years hunting for ancient architecture.”
“当我们终于从屋檐下钻出来呼吸新鲜空气的时候,发现在背包里爬满了千百只臭虫。我们自己也被咬得很厉害,可是我们发现的重要性和意外收获,使得这些日子成为我多年来寻找古建筑中最快乐的时光。”
人生伴侣
梁启超和林长民,两位都是饱受中国传统文化熏染的士子。
梁思成与林徽因,一个是清末变法维新首领梁启超的儿子;一个是著名政治、外交家林长民的女儿。
他们共同开创了运用西方建筑理论研究中国古代建筑的先河,在中国建筑史上写下了浓墨重彩的一笔。
Their families knew each other, and they journeyed to the United States together to attend the University of Pennsylvania in 1924.
