1、精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上川剧变脸英文介绍提起变脸,我们先要说说川剧。川剧是中国地方戏之一,流行于四川、云南、贵州等地。变脸可不是随便化化妆,改变一下自己的脸谱。它是川剧中的一种特殊技法,在几秒钟内可以多次变换脸部妆容,表演时常常用它来表达剧中人物的不同的思想感情。We cannot talk about face changing without mentioning Sichuan opera. Sichuan Opera is one of many local operas in China, popular in the provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan an
2、d Guizhou. Face changing is not simply changing ones facial makeup in a casual way, but is a special technique in the performance of Sichuan Opera. It refers to the changing of masks in quick succession to show different emotions and feelings of the character in the play.相传“变脸”的由来与古代人们应对野兽侵犯有关。以前,古人
3、在遇到凶猛的野兽时,就在自己脸上勾画出不同的图案,这样做就可以吓唬野兽、保护自己。后来,川剧就把这种方法搬上舞台,也就有了后来“变脸”这一门独特的艺术。It is said the origin of face changing has something to do with the resistance of wild beasts. In ancient times, when coming across a ferocious animal, people used to draw different patterns on their faces to scare the anima
4、l away and keep themselves safe. Later on, such trick was applied to the stage performance of Sichuan Opera, and the unique art of face changing has thus come into being.变脸也有很多种方法,大体上可以分为三种: “抹脸”、“吹脸”和“扯脸”。Face-changing techniques generally fall into three categories, “wiping”, “blowing” and “pullin
5、g”.“抹脸”是将化妆油彩涂在脸的某一部位上,到时用手往脸上一抹,便可变成另外一种脸色。 “吹脸”只适合于粉末状的化妆品。表演时,会在舞台的地面上摆一个很小的盒子,里面装粉末,演员到时做一个伏地的舞蹈动作,趁机将脸贴近盒子一吹,粉末扑在脸上,立即就能变成另一种颜色的脸。“扯脸”是事前将脸谱画在一张一张的绸子上,剪好,每张脸谱上都系一把丝线,再一张一张地贴在脸上。丝线则系在衣服的某个地方,但不能让别人看出来,很多人常常把它系在腰带上。表演时,在舞蹈动作的掩护下,再一张一张地将它扯下来。“Wiping” is to spread the paint over the face while perf
6、orming. The paint is put on a certain part of the face in advance. “Blowing” is only employed when powder cosmetics are used. On the stage, a tiny box with powder cosmetics in it is placed before hand. A movement of prostration near the box will enable the performer to blow the powder onto his face.
7、 When one is going to use the “pulling” technique he has to draw facial masks on fine pieces of silk cloth, cut them into the right size, tie a thin thread to each mask and stick them onto his face before the performance. The threads are fastened to somewhere hidden in his costumes. Many performers
8、prefer to tie them onto their waistbands. When performing, the artist would pull the mask off one after another under the cover of various dancing movements.其实,三种方法中第一种最常用也最简单,而吹脸则相对麻烦了点。因为在吹的过程中要闭眼,闭气,否则,粉末进到眼里或者嘴里,就没有办法继续表演了。扯脸是最麻烦的。因为舞蹈动作既要自然,还要做好掩护,要不然就会被观众看破,那样的话,观众一生气,恐怕也要“变脸”了。In practice, th
9、e first method of the three is most employed because it is the simplest, while “blowing” is relatively more complicated since one has to close his eyes and shut up his mouth when blowing in case the powder would fly into his eyes and mouth so the performance would not be continued. However, “pulling” is the most troublesome among the three skills. The dancing movements have to be natural and the action of pulling should be invisible to the audience. If the audience sees through the trick of face changing, they would probably get dissatisfied and pull a face too!专心-专注-专业
