離開英國(guó)的小貝卻從未遠(yuǎn)離公眾的視線,他去美國(guó)踢球,現(xiàn)在又轉(zhuǎn)去法國(guó),他還擔(dān)任中國(guó)的中超聯(lián)賽形象大使。他不僅活躍在足球界,連時(shí)尚界也時(shí)常會(huì)有他的身影。最近,他又進(jìn)軍哲學(xué)界了,有人開始研究“貝克漢姆存在主義”。
Forget Gareth Bale and Real Madrid, the biggest unveiling in football this year is Becksistentialism, a new philosophy inspired by David Beckham’s move to Paris.
加雷斯•貝爾和皇家馬德里都不算什么,今年足球界最引人矚目的事件是貝克漢姆存在主義,這是小貝移居巴黎啟發(fā)出來的一門新哲學(xué)。
Described by its creator, Cambridge professor Andy Martin, Becksistentialism is “existentialism, but with a very cool haircut.”
該哲學(xué)理論的創(chuàng)立者、劍橋大學(xué)教授安迪•馬丁對(duì)貝克漢姆存在主義的描述為“留著超酷發(fā)型的存在主義”。
Martin’s concept imagines what would happen if Beckham had been hit by a sudden existentialist crisis after encountering the views of Sartre, Proust and Camus in Paris’ intellectual scene, following his transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. The lecture, to be given at Cambridge University’s Festival of Ideas, is based on Dr Martin’s blog: "Becks in Paris".
馬丁的這一理論概念基于對(duì)貝克漢姆轉(zhuǎn)會(huì)至巴黎圣日耳曼隊(duì)后狀況的一番假設(shè):假如他突然受到薩特、普魯斯特、加繆等法國(guó)存在主義大師啟發(fā),并遭遇個(gè)人存在危機(jī),他會(huì)怎么辦?這場(chǎng)有關(guān)貝克漢姆存在主義的講座將在劍橋大學(xué)的構(gòu)想節(jié)期間舉行,講座內(nèi)容以馬丁博士的博客“小貝在巴黎”為基本素材。
The blog is based on real and fictional events and characters and imagines Beckham forced to puzzle over the meaning of existence as he plays for PSG. In one entry Beckham realizes: "A saviour. Yes, that’s what I wanted to be. What I still could be. It is not enough to be a great footballer. I have to go and save the world. To spread the gospel of football." (Source: The Independent)
馬丁博士的博客文章既有真實(shí)的人物和事件,也有部分是虛構(gòu)的。博客文章假設(shè)貝克漢姆在巴黎圣日耳曼隊(duì)踢球的同時(shí)試圖尋找存在的意義。其中一篇文章說貝克漢姆意識(shí)到:“是的,我要當(dāng)一名拯救者。這是我能夠做到的。僅僅做一名優(yōu)秀的足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員是不夠的。我還得拯救全世界,向全世界傳播足球的福音! |
