スコット・フィッツジェラルドについて
スコット・フィッツジェラルドについての英文を訳しているのですが
以下の英文でつまずいています。
By the nineteen twenties, many people believed that gaining the material things one desired could bring happiness.
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote about the lives of people who lived as if that were true.
There was more to Fitzgerald than a desire for material things.
“The test of a first-rate intelligence,” he said, “is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still have the ability to act.”
His two opposing ideas involved seeking happiness from material things, and knowing that material things only brought unhappiness.
どなたか和訳をお願いします。
お礼
ご回答ありがとうございます。 これは私も確認いたしました。 やはり絶版になっている以上、古本でしか入手は無理なようですね。
