罗琳的灵感来源?霍格沃茨和英国寄宿学校的相似之处!

 预言家日报 2023-02-07 发布于北京
世界各地都有和霍格沃茨学校比较相似的寄宿学校,但没有一所学校比英国的寄宿学校更像霍格沃茨。罗琳创造霍格沃茨的灵感也来源于此。

让我们来看看麻瓜的学校和霍格沃茨有什么相似的地方吧!

It definitely seems like J.K. Rowling may have used the UK boarding school system as inspiration for the creation of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in more ways than one, because one of the most noticeable aspects that Hogwarts and boarding schools share in common is their exclusivity. 

显然,J.K.罗琳的霍格沃茨魔法学校的创作灵感来自英国寄宿学校制度,因为霍格沃茨和寄宿学校最显著的共同点之一就是它们的排他性。  
Hogwarts is theoretically a bit more egalitarian than a normal boarding school, but you only get admittance to the school if you have magical powers, and those from "good" wizarding families typically get better treatment than others, at least by other students and some teachers. On the other hand, boarding schools are ostensibly open to everyone, but the vast majority of students are from wealthy, established families too. 

从理论上讲,霍格沃茨比普通寄宿学校更平等一些,但你只有在拥有魔法能力的情况下才能被录取,而那些来自“好”巫师家庭的学生通常会得到比其他人更好的待遇,至少在其他学生和一些老师那里是这样的。另一方面,寄宿学校表面上对所有人开放,但绝大多数学生也来自富裕、有地位的家庭。
Quidditch may be the only major sport in the entire wizarding world, but it is clearly a very important part of wizard culture, and it's a very important part of culture at Hogwarts too. The jocks of the school obviously get a lot of attention, especially when they're winning, and the sports rivalries between players and houses can be intense. 

魁地奇也许是整个魔法世界里唯一的主要运动项目,但它显然是巫师文化中非常重要的一部分,也是霍格沃茨文化中非常重要的一部分。学校的运动员显然得到了很多关注,尤其是当他们赢球的时候,运动员和学校之间的体育竞争可能会很激烈。
And although the spectrum of sports that boarding school students play in the UK is much wider, they're still equally as competitive and sports obsessed. They may be teenagers, but for them, sports are very serious business, and playing sports for their school is definitely a big deal. 

尽管英国寄宿学校的学生参加的体育活动范围更广,但他们同样热衷于竞争和运动。他们可能只是青少年,但对他们来说,运动是非常严肃的事情,参加运动对他们的学校来说绝对是一件大事。
If you have never been to a boarding school, one of the most difficult things for you to understand is that once you have been to school for one year, you will almost be at school, but you can't go anywhere else. But this actually seems to be the case for most students in boarding schools.

如果你从来没有上过寄宿学校,最让你难以理解的事情之一就是一旦你上了一年的学,你几乎就只能在学校,而不能到别的地方去,但这实际上似乎是大多数寄宿学校的学生的情况。 
Just like Hogwarts, children in British boarding schools occasionally visit Hogsmeade Village, but they spend most of their time in school and have little chance to leave. Even in their spare time, they are usually required to stay in school.

就像在霍格沃茨一样,英国寄宿学校的孩子偶尔也会去“霍格莫德村”玩玩,但他们大部分时间都在学校里度过,没有多少机会离开。即使在空闲时间,他们通常也被要求留在学校。
Much like the Hogwarts houses, UK boarding schools also organize and lead their students through the use of prefects. School prefects are older students who have stood out in some exceptional way, and therefore are chosen to lead their own house and serve as supervisors and role models for their fellow students. 

和霍格沃茨学院一样,英国寄宿学校也通过级长来组织和引导学生。学校级长是年纪较大的学生,他们在某些方面表现突出,因此被选中领导自己的学院,并成为其他学生的监督者和榜样。
If a boarding school were a university, then the prefects would be something like the student body government and resident advisers in one single package. And although it isn't necessarily always the case, typically students who are chosen as prefects have to maintain a certain level of school involvement and academic performance in order to get and maintain the gig. 

如果寄宿学校是一所大学,那么级长就像学生团体政府和居民顾问一样。虽然不一定总是这样,但通常被选为级长的学生必须保持一定程度的学校参与度和学术表现,才能获得并维持这份工作。

Obviously when classes aren't actually in session the dress code is considerably more relaxed and students can essentially wear what they want, but when they're on actual educational time they're required to suit up in their standard school uniforms. 

很明显,在不上课的时候,学校的着装要求要宽松得多,学生基本上可以穿他们想穿的衣服,但在实际上课的时候,他们被要求穿标准校服。
Both in the Harry Potter books and films, it seems like the Hogwarts Great Hall is basically the heart of the entire school. Kids seem to spend a lot of their downtime there, and nearly every major school event takes place there, which is in addition to the hall serving as the school's cafeteria. 

在《哈利·波特》系列丛书和电影中,霍格沃茨礼堂基本上是整个学校的“心脏地带”。孩子们似乎在那里度过了很多休息时间,大厅除了作为学校的自助餐厅,几乎所有学校的主要活动都在那里举行。
And surprisingly it would seem that this is very much the case for the average UK boarding school as well. The schools are massive and have all of the facilities required to offer children an education as well as a home, but the dining area is typically the place where everything significant happens. 

令人惊讶的是,这似乎也适用于普通的英国寄宿学校。学校规模巨大,具备为孩子提供教育和家庭所需的所有设施,但用餐区通常是所有重大事件发生的地方。
