上世纪20年代,新文化诗人徐志摩两次留学剑桥大学,归国前抒写传世绝唱《再别康桥》。“静德之美” :“静静的我走了,正如我静静的来”;“悄悄的我走了,正如我悄悄的来”。大言无声,大道无形 。
剑桥有八百年办学历史了(公元1209年 ),剑桥有七十多个诺贝尔奖获得者,剑桥走出了牛顿、培根、达尔文、卢瑟福、拜伦、弥尔顿、麦考莱……
牛津大学教学生“无中之有”(everything about nothing),剑桥教学生“有中之无”(nothing about everything),可谓言中。 Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again
Very quietly I take my leave
As quietly as I came here;
Quietly I wave good-bye
To the rosy clouds in the western sky.
轻轻的我走了,
正如我轻轻的来;
我轻轻的招手,
作别西天的云彩。
The golden willows by the riverside
Are young brides in the setting sun;
Their reflections on the shimmering waves
Always linger in the depth of my heart.
那河畔的金柳,
是夕阳中的新娘;
波光里的艳影,
在我的心头荡漾。
