等着瞧吧,你这凶恶的导师!

学生对于比较霸道的老师,尤其是中山大学艾云灿教授那种所谓“流氓博导”,从来都是深恶痛绝,甚至会幻想有机会置之于死地而后快的冲动。

去死吧,Henry Higgins

在歌舞剧电影《窈窕淑女》(My fair lady)中,对专制的Higgins教授的教学怨气十足的Eliza Dolittle就用一首《Just you wait, Henry Higgins》(等着瞧吧,Henry Higgins)充分表达了Eliza对Higgins的粗暴教学方法的诅咒和怨恨。她不仅希望Higgins在游泳时抽筋淹死,还希望要求国王把Higgins押往伦敦塔枪决。所以,确切地说,这首歌的标题应该翻译成《去死吧,Henry Higgins》可能更符合信和达的标准,虽然不一定够雅。

这一首歌是所有霸道的导师必须听的。

因为Eliza这个时候发音还没有学到家,不会发H音,所以歌词里面是‘enry ’iggins,而不是Henry Higgins。非常有意思。

没你我会活得更好,Higgins先生

成功逃脱霸道老师的魔爪,从来都是学生最大的愿望。

当Eliza终于把本事学到之后,她终于有自信逃脱Higgins教授的abuse,并且自豪地对Higgins教授说,我现在没有你我照样可以活得更好,没有你地球照样转。这首Without You正是Eliza对Higgins教授的独立宣言。但愿每个学生在毕业的时候都可以有足够的勇气给自己的导师唱这首歌。不会的国内学生,唱《国际歌》也可以。

更让Higgins教授气不打一处来的是,Eliza说现在我可以去用你叫我的东西自己养活自己,而且自己要去和Higgins教授认为没用的破落贵族小伙子Freddy结婚。Eliza声称虽然Freddy没钱也没用,但是他爱我。

因为Higgins教授是个单身汉,所以对Eliza的这一决定还会在意。如果Higgins是已婚,估计Eliza嫁给Freddy只会有糟践自己的危险。因此,这种做法原则上不值得向要寻求独立的男女学生推荐。

音乐剧电影My fair lady

在1964年的音乐剧电影My fair lady的最后,Eliza又回到了Higgins教授的身边。这是百老汇和好莱坞的结局。整个作品具有强烈的喜剧色彩。

我个人非常喜欢My fair lady这部音乐剧,对其中Rex Harrison的表演非常欣赏。Harrison也因此获得了1965年的奥斯卡最佳男主角奖。整个电影囊括了1965年的8项奥斯卡。

科学和人文

在哥伦比亚大学化学系的时候,我常在电梯上碰到系里最著名的有机化学家之一Ronald Breslow教授哼My fair lady中的歌曲。尤其是常听到他哼那首欢快的I could have danced all night. 有一次我正碰上他哼这首曲子,我说我也非常喜欢这首曲子,他眨眨眼睛,开玩笑地说:I wrote it, and they stole it. 这首歌的曲和词当然都不是Breslow教授写的,不过Breslow的钢琴弹得实在是棒,我听过一次他弹好像是帕格尼尼主题狂想曲,觉得有专业表演的水平。所以后来我也不奇怪看到新闻上说他70岁生日的时候还有朋友专门请作曲家写了一首交响曲献给他。

现在的中国人老觉得科学和人文是两回事,我在哥大化学系读书时的教授中,起码有好几位都有很高的音乐水平。我后来博士后的导师也是颇有造诣的合唱团指挥。我对此只能是如河伯一样望洋兴叹。

没有结局的结局

在萧伯纳(George Bernard Shaw)的Pygmalion原剧本中,并没有这样的大团圆结局,全剧到Eliza在Higgins教授的母亲家离开Higgins教授就嘎然而止,所以更为严肃,没有那么强的喜剧性。不过萧伯纳并没有象易卜生的《玩偶之家》那样没有对女主角离开之后的可能性给出任何交待,所以鲁迅先生便失去了机会写《Eliza出走以后》的文章。萧翁在全剧的正剧结束之后加了一个说明,对Eliza出走之后的几种可能结局给出了自己的解释和评价,并且希望观众发挥自己的想象力去确定自己希望的结局。

1938年好莱坞拍的故事片Pygmalion更忠实于原著,它没有歌舞剧My fair lady那么强的喜剧效果,也没能给我留下那么深刻的印象。

皮格马利翁和皮格马利翁效应

Pygmalion的故事了解希腊神话的人大都知晓。

“皮格马利翁(Pygmalion)是古希腊神话中塞浦路斯国王。这个国王性情孤僻,常年一人独居。他善于雕刻,孤寂中用象牙雕刻了一座表现了他理想中的女性的美女像。久而久之,他竟对自己的作品产生了爱慕之情。他祈求爱神阿佛罗狄忒赋予雕像以生命。阿佛罗狄忒为他的真诚所感动,就使这座美女雕像活了起来。皮格马利翁遂称她为伽拉忒亚,并娶她为妻。”

心理学上也有所谓的皮格马利翁效应。了解皮格马利翁的故事和皮格马利翁效应的人应该不难明白萧翁以之作为剧名的原因。

教师要按自己的理想来塑造学生,不管教师的水平、人品和方法如何,必定会在不同的阶段常常被认为是违背学生的意愿,并且很可能会受到强烈的抵制。此时所谓平等、自由、人格和人权这些问题全都会被牵扯进去,所以,教育真的是一个值得深究的综合性的大课题。

Higgins教授的自我安慰

Higgins面对Eliza出走的结果,只能自己安慰自己,说自己一开始知道自己有能力培养出这样有水平的学生。唱道:

By George, I really did it,
I did it, I did it,
I said I'd make a woman and indeed I did,
I knew that I could do it,
I knew it, I knew it,
I said I'd make a woman and succeed I did!

George指英国国王乔治。By George大概就是象以前文革期间大家常说的“向毛主席发誓”,属于表达充分的肯定性的意见的口语。

最后Higgins教授只能言不由衷地称赞说:

Eliza,you are wonderful. (Eliza,你真棒!)

大多数时候,老师的自我安慰恐怕是他们能够在心理上达到的最好状态。

(注:本文不表示我对中山大学的艾云灿教授相关事件本身有任何评论,但愿网友不会误解。)

Just You Wait 歌词

电影《窈窕淑女》(My fair lady)

Just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
You'll be sorry, but your tears'll be to late!
You'll be broke, and I'll have money;
Will I help you? Don't be funny!
Just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
Just you wait, 'enry 'iggins, till you're sick,
And you scream to fetch a doctor double-quick.
I'll be off a second later And go straight to the the-ater!
Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins, just you wait!
Ooooooh 'enry 'iggins!
Just you wait until we're swimmin' in the sea!
Ooooooh 'enry 'iggins!
And you get a cramp a little ways from me!
When you yell you're going to drown I'll get dressed
and go to town! Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins!
Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins! Just you wait!
One day I'll be famous! I'll be proper and prim;
Go to St. James so often I will call it St. Jim!
One evening the king will say:
\"Oh, Liza, old thing,
I want all of England your praises to sing.
Next week on the twentieth of May
I proclaim Liza Doolittle Day!
All the people will celebrate the glory of you
And whatever you wish and want I gladly will do.\"
\"Thanks a lot, King\" says I, in a manner well-bred;
But all I want is 'enry 'iggins 'ead!\"
\"Done,\" says the King with a stroke.
\"Guard, run and bring in the bloke!\"
Then they'll march you, 'enry 'iggins to the wall;
And the King will tell me: \"Liza, sound the call.\"
As they lift their rifles higher, I'll shout:
\"Ready! Aim! Fire!\"
Oh ho ho, 'enry 'iggins,
Down you'll go, 'enry 'iggins!
Just you wait!

Without You歌词

电影《窈窕淑女》(My fair lady)

Eliza (singing):
What a fool I was, what dominated fool,
to think that you were the earth and the sky,
What a fool I was, What an elevated fool,
What a mutton-headed dote was I!
No, my reverberated friend,
you are not the beginning and the end.

Professor Higgins (speaking):
You impetant hussy there's not an idea in your head or a word
in your mouth that I haven't put there.

Eliza (singing):
There'll be spring every year without you. England still
will be here without you.
There'll be fruit on the tree.
And a shore by the sea.
There'll be crumpets and tea without you.

Art and music will thrive without you.
Somehow Keats will survive without you.
And there still will be rain on that plain down in Spain,
even that will remain without you.
I can do without you.

You, dear friend, who taught so well,
You can go to Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire.

They can still rule with land without you.
Windsor Castle will stand without you.
And without much ado we can all muddle through without you.

Professor Higgins:
You brazen hussy,

Eliza (singing):
Wihtout pulling it the tide comes in,
without your twirling it the Earth can spin,
Without your pulling it, the tide comes in
Without your twirling it, the earth can spin
Without your pushing them, the clouds roll by,
If they can do without you, ducky, so can I
I shall not feel alone without you
I can stand on my own without you
So go back in your shell
I can do bloody well
Without...

Professor Higging (singing) interupts:
By George, I really did it,
I did it, I did it,
I said I'd make a woman and indeed I did,
I knew that I could do it,
I knew it, I knew it,
I said I'd make a woman and succeed I did!

(speaking)
Eliza you are wonderful
