LONDON — Since its inception in 2002, the Saturday Profile has aimed to bring to readers of The New York Times people around the world they probably have never heard of, but who have led interesting lives and done extraordinary things, or perhaps recently gone through a remarkable experience.

倫敦——自2002年開設(shè)以來,“周六人物”(Saturday Profile)便旨在向《紐約時報(bào)》的讀者介紹世界各地的人。讀者可能從來沒有聽說過這些人,但他們過著有趣的生活,做過不同尋常的事情,或者剛剛有了一段非凡的經(jīng)歷。

The people we look for usually do not run countries, or headline blockbuster movies, or write best sellers. We leave those to the appropriate sections of the newspaper. Our subjects are more likely to have just emerged from prison, or written their 1,547th novel.

我們要找的人通常不是國家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人、轟動性的電影大片主演或暢銷書作者。我們會把這些人留給本報(bào)的相應(yīng)版面。我們的報(bào)道對象更有可能剛出獄,或剛寫完第1547本小說。

Or, this year, to be women with a story to tell about abuse, sexual or otherwise — a couple of whom shared #MeToo moments in our pages. Carlotta Gall told the story of Henda Ayari, a French citizen of North African heritage and anti-Salafist activist who accused a prominent Oxford professor of raping her.

又或者,今年是一群有跟虐待、性或其他有關(guān)的故事要講的女性。她們其中幾個人在我們的頁面上分享了“我也是”(#MeToo)的經(jīng)歷??逅?middot;加爾(Carlotta Gall)講述了漢達(dá)·阿亞里(Henda Ayari)的故事。后者是一名擁有北非血統(tǒng)的法國公民,也是一名反薩拉菲派活動人士。她指控牛津大學(xué)某知名教授強(qiáng)奸了她。

Sweden’s foreign minister, Margot Wallstrom, a proponent of a “feminist foreign policy,” opened up to Ellen Barry about her abuse at the hands of an old boyfriend when she was a young woman, something she had never said publicly before.

倡導(dǎo)“女權(quán)主義外交政策”的瑞典外交部長瑪戈特·瓦爾斯特倫(Margot Wallstrom)向埃倫·巴里(Ellen Barry)敞開心扉,回憶了自己年輕時被當(dāng)時的男友虐待的經(jīng)歷。她以前從未公開說過此事。

Perhaps my favorite profile this year was Kiki Zhao’s stirring depiction of the remarkable Yu Xiuhua, now one of China’s most read poets, a woman with cerebral palsy who lived most of her 41 years on a farm, writing at a low table. She never finished high school, and says she “could write before she could read.” Now, she is invited to places like Stanford University and fends off comparisons to Emily Dickinson.

今年,我最喜歡的人物報(bào)道可能是Kiki Zhao對中國目前讀者最多的詩人之一余秀華激動人心的描寫。余秀華是一個了不起的人。她患有腦癱,過去41年里大部分時間生活在農(nóng)村,在一張矮桌子上寫作。高中沒畢業(yè)的她說自己“在能讀它們(名著)之前,我就知道如何寫作了”。現(xiàn)在,她受邀前往斯坦福大學(xué)等地,她不愿被比作艾米麗·迪金森(Emily Dickinson)。

So take a look. I sincerely hope you enjoy reading them as much as I liked selecting and editing them.

因此,看看吧。我真誠地希望你們會喜歡它們,就像我在挑選和編輯它們時那樣。
