Racine and Humanist Culture

17世纪法国戏剧家拉辛在罗亚尔港的“小学校”接受的人文主义教育，使他在青少年时期阅读欧洲的原著，对其进行总结摘录或翻译成自然优美的法语。诵读古文的语言学上的精确性，加上追求自然优美表达的翻译美学，造就了拉西尼悲剧的产生。

17th century French dramatist Jean Racine, through the humanist education he received during adolescence at the "Petites Ecoles" of Port-Royal, read european classics in the original langauges, making summary and extract or translating them into a natural and graceful French. The philological exactitude in reading ancient texts, combined with the aesthetics of translation which pursue natural and graceful expressions, enabled the creation of Racinian tragedy.
