One of Shakespeare's comedies, Much Ado About Nothing is the tale of the feisty Beatrice, who wants never to get married and be submissive to a husband - and wants, in particular, never to marry Benedick: or so she says.

One of Shakespeare's comedies, Much Ado About Nothing is the tale of the feisty Beatrice, who wants never to get married and be submissive to a husband - and wants, in particular, never to marry Benedick: or so she says. And so he says. They are tricked into believing each is in love with the other, and this brings about a genuine sympathy between them. Meanwhile, and less in the comic vein, a contrasting love match is brought into jeopardy by conniving and lies when Hero is slandered and Claudio believes what he hears. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
道格培里:你难道瞧不起我的地位吗?
你难道瞧不起握着一把年纪吗?
啊,但愿他在这儿,给我写下我是头驴子!
可是列位弟兄们,记住我是头驴子;
虽然这句话没有写下来,可是别忘记我是头驴子。
你这恶人,你简直是目中无人,
这儿大家都可以见证的。
老实告诉你吧,我是个聪明人;
而且是个官;
而且是个有家小的人;
再说,我的相貌也比得上梅西那地方无论哪一个人;
我懂得法律,那可以不去说它;
我身边老大有几个钱,那也可以不去说它;
我不是不曾碰到过坏运气,
可是我还有两件袍子,
无论到什么地方去总还是体体面面的。
把他带下去!
啊,但愿他给我写下我是一头驴子!
Dogbey. I am a wise fellow, and, which is more,
an officer, and, which is more, a householder, and,
which is more, as pretty a piece of flesh as any is
in Messina, and one that knows the law, go to;
and a rich fellow enough, go to; and a fellow that
hath had losses, and one that hath two gowns and
everything handsome about him.
莎士比亚:《无事生非》IV,ii,82 Shakespeare, Much Ado About Nothing, IV, ii, 82 (查看原文)
Much Ado About Nothing is generally considered one of Shakespeare’s best comedies, because it combines elements of robust hilarity with more serious meditations on honor, shame, and court politics.
The meaning of “nothing” in “Much Ado With Nothing” Background: At Messina, Don Pedro, a Spanish prince from Aragon, and his deputies, Claudio and Benedick, have just returned from a successful battle. Leonato, the governor of Messina, welcomes them for...

今天在看莫里哀的the school for wives里put horns on someone这种表达突然给我敲响了警钟,想起来这一本。 horns在莎士比亚的无事生非里被多次提及,比如Benedick立flag时说: “The savage bull may; but if ever the sensible Benedick bear it, pluck off the bull's horns ...
