1. 玻璃匠的劍
巴若維亞能夠在穆藍諾城裡帶著他的劍。他是火和玻璃的結合大師。他並沒有在三月十五日殺死托索後受到審訊,因為他是全威尼斯最偉大的玻璃創作者。他將他的女兒嫁入麥地錫家族。阿維爾拉多˙麥地錫幫助巴若維亞離開穆藍諾城。他在他七十歲的時候到了荷蘭,他一直到死前都被這低地國奉為最珍貴的寶藏。
2. 君子好逑
我手中握著一把黃色雛菊穿過這早晨的市集。一個可愛年輕小子坐在聖彼得羅的噴水池旁邊,對我唱出為她而活。我在他的眼中看見陽光與水花起舞。
  
3. 包達面具
他快速穿過廣場。我看不見他的臉,他戴著金色的包達面具。我決定跟隨他。

 

1. Glassmaker’s Sword
Giuseppe Barovier was allowed to carry a sword in Murano. He was the master of fire and glass. When he killed Toso in the eyes of March, he was free from prosecution because he was the most respectable glassmaker in the whole Venetian state. He married his daughter into the family of Medici. Averardo de Medici helped him to flee to the Netherlands when Barovier was at his age of seventy. He was the treasure of the low country until the day he died.
2. Love Chaser
I am holding a daisy bunch and walking through the morning market. A sweet lad sitting at the fountain San Pietro sings me lo vivo per Lei. I see the sunshine dancing with the splashes in his eyes.
3. Bauta
He walks briskly through the Piazza. I cannot see his face. He is wearing a gold bauta. I decide to follow him.

Perhaps because what you described is so “Western,” the English version reads so “realistic”, whereas the Chinese version feels like a translated piece (this is by no means a criticism). I must say that you have, as always, done a superb job, in both I & II.

My guess is that your “聯想" must be somewhat fact-based. Am I right? [Please pardon me for my ignorance of Western history]

Thanks always.

Yeah, you are right. I play with the history a little bit.  In I, there were condottieri, a position which played a critical role in guarding the city state(Venice) from the 14th to 16th century; and of course, the black death which had overwhelmed the whole Venice in the 14th century. In II, I made up a story based on the history of Murano glassmakers in the 14th century. They were allowed to wear swords, had the privilege to get away from prosecution by the state, and they usually married their daughters into affluent families. But glassmakers then were not allowed to leave the state as they were considered holding an exclusive craft which was supposed to benefit their own state only . Of course, some took risks of running to other countries for various reasons.
