其实,戴奥尼亚同洛克里之间还有一些文化渊源。当初图里伊城建立时,雅典智者普洛泰戈拉为它制定法律,他并没有随便的采用雅典法律,而是根据图里伊是个移民众多、来源复杂的城邦,选择了以著名的洛克里立法者扎莱乌库斯为洛克里制定的法律为基础,而制定了图里伊的法律。戴奥尼亚联盟在原图里伊城的废墟上建立,又汲取了原图里伊法律的精髓。Zaleucusis famousfordraconian laws, heoncemade the stipulation: „Anybodywantsto changerandomone in current law, thenmustfirstbelayhisneckwith the rope, oncehisproposalcannot obtainto be passed, thenhewill be strangled to death.” The Zaleucuslifelaw enforcementsquare all round. Whenhis sonviolates the law, under the lawstipulated that mustbe dugboth eyes, hiswithout hesitationexecution. Howeverout of the fathers and sonsfriendship, hereplaced the sonto dig an owneye.扎莱乌库斯以严刑峻法著称,他曾作出规定:“任何人想要改变现行法律中的任意一条,那么要先用绳索套住他的脖子,一旦他的提案得不到通过,那么他将会被勒死。”扎莱乌库斯一生执法公正无私。当他儿子犯法时,按照法律规定要被挖去双目,他毫不犹豫的执行。不过出于父子情谊,他代替儿子挖去了自己的一只眼睛。Hassuchcharacterto be the model, hassuchlawto govern the Locriperson, thereforeunlike the enthusiasm and bracelet of generalGreekcity-statecitizen, the Locripersontotoe the lineto be famousinMagna Graecia( naturally were also manyafterwardTheonian), madethemunderstand the command prompt, can therefore resist the strengthstronglyinitsCrotone.
有这样的人物做表率,有这样的法律来治理洛克里人,因此与一般希腊城邦公民的热情和跳脱不同,洛克里人以循规蹈矩著称于大希腊(当然后来又多了一个戴奥尼亚人),同时也让他们更懂得服从命令,因此才能对抗实力强于它的克罗托内。Alsoperhapsbecause of the severity of regulation, whatLocricity-statepatronnotlikeothercity-statemostlychoicesislooks likeZeus, Poseidon, Apollo, Athenaand other powerfulgods, butchosetwogentlegoddesses- lovewithgod of Aphroditeandghostdomqueenandbumper cropgoddessParceyPokbeautiful, and was also twogoddessesconstructed the broadtemplerespectively. Therefore, whenevery yearSeptember 9Theoniaholds the Hadescelebration, a small number ofLocripeoplewill also hurry to participate, not onlybecause ofThuriithatunusualceremony and livelyscene , because Theonianagainsacrificial offeringHadesat the same time, will be joyfully celebratinghisqueenParceyPokwhile convenient.
也或许正是因为律法的严苛,洛克里的城邦保护神不像其他城邦大多选择的是像宙斯、波塞冬、阿波罗、雅典娜等强大的神祗,而是选择了两位温柔的女神-爱与美之神阿佛洛狄忒和冥界王后、丰产女神帕尔塞福涅,并且还为两位女神各修建了恢弘的神殿。所以,当每年的9月 9 日戴奥尼亚举办哈迪斯庆典之时,少数洛克里人也会赶去参加,不仅是因为图里伊那与众不同的仪式和热闹的场面,更是因为戴奥尼亚人再祭祀哈迪斯的同时,也会顺带着欢庆他的王后帕尔塞福涅。Meanwhile, becausejust the city-statepatron godistwogoddesses, the social position of Locriwomanothercity-stateis higher, theywere allowed to bring the veilto make an appearancein a public setting, but alsohas the propertyright of inheritance of part. This pointandTheoniasomewhatare also similar.
同时,也正因为城邦的守护神是两位女神,洛克里女人的社会地位比其他城邦的要高,她们被允许可以带面纱在公共场合露面,还拥有部分的财产继承权。这一点与戴奥尼亚又有些相似。Buttwoculturesa littleare close, the customa littlesimilarGreeceinfluenceactuallyregretmustbecome the enemy.
但两个文化有点相近、风俗有点相似的希腊势力却遗憾的要成为敌人。LouckLeonhas not arrived atLocri, the Locripowwowhas knownTheoniaarchon encounters the assassination the matter. Although shortly after at that time the event, Thuriiblocked the entirecity, butTheoniatakessouthintentoverlord, is not only Locriandothercity-stateincludingsouthintentUnion, hasTarantoto send the more or lessinformerstationed inorhidesin the Thuriicity, harbor, understands the Theoniatrendwhen necessary, so thatcity-state can make the correspondingcountermeasurepromptly. Therefore, then the bigunrest happened, will naturally be observedby the person with high aspirations, afterrapidproving, theyorgoes by boatorrides a horse, rushes toowncity-statein abundance.
弗劳克列昂还未到达洛克里,洛克里议事会就已经知道了戴奥尼亚执政官遭到刺杀的事情。虽然当时事件发生后不久,图里伊就封锁了全城,但是戴奥尼亚作为南意霸主,不仅是洛克里、包括南意同盟中的其他城邦、还有塔兰图姆都派有或多或少的耳目驻扎或者潜藏在图里伊城内、港口,随时了解戴奥尼亚的动向,以便城邦能及时作出相应的对策。因此,那么大的骚乱一发生,自然就会被有心人观察到,在迅速探明情况后,他们或乘船或骑马,纷纷赶往自己的城邦。LouckLeone, insteadfellonnext daybehind, histravelling by boatentered the Locriharbor, the harborpublic officialspassed to the powwow in city the newsrapidly, whyLocricongressmen the envoy to Theoniawill appearatthis timeare surprisedhere.
弗劳克利昂第二天出发,反而落在了后面,他的坐船进入洛克里港口,港口的公职人员迅速将消息传到城里的议事会,洛克里的议员们对戴奥尼亚的使者为什么在这个时候会出现在这里而感到吃惊。
The Locrigeneralsandin the congressmanhavesmall number of people many trueinside story that knows a pointassassination, for exampleDionysiusLocriwifeGeneralDoris'sElder BrothervirtuemotorKase, hewishfullythinks that perhapsTheoniamustgoto protesttoSyracuse, has not actually thought that the Theoniaenvoywill appearhere.洛克里的将军们和议员中有少数人多少知道一点这次刺杀的真正内幕,比如狄奥尼修斯的洛克里妻子多丽丝的哥哥德摩多卡斯将军,他一厢情愿的认为戴奥尼亚恐怕又要去向锡拉库扎抗议了,却没想到戴奥尼亚的使者会出现在这里。Althoughsurprised, stemming from the etiquette and respecttoTheoniathissouthintentoverlord, LouckLeonwas invited the meeting hall.
尽管吃惊,出于礼仪以及对戴奥尼亚这个南意霸主的尊重,弗劳克列昂被请进了议事厅。Locrimakescity-stateto be the same withotherdemocracies, ecclesiais the highest authorityorganization, except for the discussion and decisionimportantcity-stateimportant matter, usualpoliticsprocessinghands overby the generalexecutive committee and powwow.洛克里跟其他民主制城邦一样,公民大会是最高权力机构,除了商讨和决定重要的城邦大事,平时的政事处理都交由将军执行委员会和议事会。Powwowsimpleisreductionecclesia, itwill participate inecclesiaallcitizensbeing divided intomanygroups, generallyistengroups, participates in the city-statepoliticsthrough the powwowin turn, thereforeinthis timemeeting hallhadeightgeneralsandseveral hundredpowwowmembers, thisis a bigbattle formation, maycompared withTheoniacouncilpopulationmanyseveraltimes.
议事会简单的来说就是缩小的公民大会,它将参与公民大会的所有公民分成好多组,一般是十组,轮流通过议事会来参与城邦政事,因此这时的议事厅里有八名将军和几百名议事会成员,这已经是一个不小的阵势,可比戴奥尼亚元老院的人数多好几倍。LouckLeonepreparesslightly, under the powwowpresident'sinvitation, moved toward the conference sitecenter.
弗劳克利昂稍作准备,就在议事会主席的邀请下,走向了会场中央。„The Locricongressmen, I, LouckLeone, come here as the envoys of Theoniaalliance, comesto condemntoLocrion behalf of the Theoniaentire citizens!”LouckLeoneexplained the purpose in comingstraightforwardly.
“洛克里的议员们,我,弗劳克利昂,作为戴奥尼亚联盟的使者来到这里,是代表戴奥尼亚全体公民来向洛克里问罪的!”弗劳克利昂直截了当的说明来意。Hefinishes speaking, oncausesurroundingcongressmenoneastonishedandtumult. Hehas not stoppedtelling,insteadenhances the volume: „Ithink that youshouldknowTheoniagreatarchon andCommandDavos ofcitizenswholehearted loveencounters the assassination the terrible thing, itaroused the anger of allTheoniacitizen! Now, the assassinwas capturedat the scene, after the interrogation, herevealed the truth, acknowledged that heisreceivesLocrimerchant a employment and help of namedAurora, sneakingThurii that cansucceed, toarchon Davos-”
他话音刚落,就引起周围的议员们一阵惊愕和骚动。他并没有停止诉说,反而提高音量:“我想你们应该都知道了戴奥尼亚伟大的执政官、公民们衷心爱戴的统帅-戴弗斯遭到刺杀的可怕事件,它激起了全体戴奥尼亚公民的怒火!现在,有一名刺客当场被抓获,经过审讯,他吐露了实情,承认他是受到一名叫奥罗拉斯的洛克里商人的雇佣和帮助,才能成功的潜入图里伊,对执政官戴弗斯-”„Thisisslanders! Thisisframes by planting stolen goods onto frame!”LocrichiefgeneralvirtuemotorKaseinterruptsLouckLeone'swordsimmediately, refutedloudly: „Locriwill not provokeyourTheoniafor no reason! The Locriperson is not so stupid!......”
“这是污蔑!这是栽赃陷害!”洛克里首席将军德摩多卡斯立刻打断弗劳克利昂的话,高声反驳道:“洛克里不会无故的招惹你们戴奥尼亚!洛克里人没有这么蠢!……”„But the factis the fact! Thuriiafter the close investigation, allevidenceis conclusive! Theoniacouncilconfirmedover and over,finallyrecognizedthisassassinationbackpulling stringsisyourLocri!” The LouckLyonrighteoushandis pointing at the people under field, angryloudshouting.
“但事实就是事实!图里伊经过详细调查,一切都证据确凿!戴奥尼亚元老院再三确认,最后认定这次刺杀事件的背后指使者就是你们洛克里!”弗劳克里昂理直气壮的手指着场下的众人,愤怒的大声喝道。
The powwowblasted out the potimmediately: „Theoniacouncilis a fool! ThishaswhatrelationswithourLocri, whyyoudid not interrogateSyracuse!”
议事会顿时炸开了锅:“戴奥尼亚元老院都是傻子吗!这跟我们洛克里有什么关系,你们为什么不去质问锡拉库扎!”„Thisobviouslyis that Sircommonly usedtrick, hehas assassinatedinothercity-stateinSicilyrepeatedlyhas opposedhispolitical opponent!”
“这明明是那位大人常用的伎俩,他在西西里已经多次在其他城邦刺杀过反对他的政敌!”„Whatevidenceis solid, thisdefinitelyforge! Theoniaonlydaresto blameLocri, becauseyoudo not have the courageto provokeSyracuse, even ifthat...... Aurora the merchantnamedmysteriousis the Locriperson, hepossiblybyothercity-statebuy, yourTheonia still had been interrogatedhim? Onthiseasilyconcluded that isourLocripulls strings!”
“什么证据确凿,这肯定都是伪造的!戴奥尼亚只敢来怪罪洛克里,因为你们没有胆子去招惹锡拉库扎,就算那个叫奥……奥罗拉斯的商人是洛克里人,他也可能是被别的城邦收买,你们戴奥尼亚审问过他吗?就这样轻易断定是我们洛克里指使的!”
......
……LouckLeonehas not paid attention totheirarguingandrailing , to continue saying: „For this reason, Theoniacouncilandentire citizens'despicablebehaviorto the Locriare extremely angry, requestingyouto accept the penalty. First, confessedyourmistakestoHades, mustsend the envoyto make the publicapologytoThuriitocouncil;Next, was injured and Theoniapeople of deathtothiseventoffers the compensation;Finally-”
弗劳克利昂没有理会他们的争辩和谩骂,继续说道:“为此,戴奥尼亚元老院及全体公民对洛克里的卑劣行为极其愤怒,要求你们接受惩罚。首先,向哈迪斯忏悔你们的错误,必须派使者到图里伊向元老院作公开的道歉;其次,向这一次事件中受伤和死亡的戴奥尼亚民众作出赔偿;最后-”LouckLeoneis facing the burning with rageconference site, does not fearquite the same as, the soundis firmandloud and clear: „Breaks off the alliance relationshipwithSyracuse! If so, Theoniawill forgive the Locribeforehandbehavior, andadmitsyouto enter-”
弗劳克利昂面对着群情激愤的会场,浑然不惧,声音坚定而洪亮:“断绝与锡拉库扎的同盟关系!如果是这样,戴奥尼亚将原谅洛克里之前的所为,并接纳你们进入-”LouckLeonewordshave not said,was submergedby the angryroar: „Locrisimplyhas not made the any mistake, whymustacceptyourTheoniatheseunreasonablerequests!”
弗劳克利昂话还没有说完,就被愤怒的吼声所淹没:“洛克里根本没做错什么,凭什么要接受你们戴奥尼亚这些无理的要求!”„Thisis the shame! To the Locrishame!!”
“这是羞辱!对洛克里的羞辱!!”„Thisis the plot of Theonia! Theywantto break upLocri and Syracuseunion!”
“这是戴奥尼亚的阴谋!他们想拆散洛克里与锡拉库扎的同盟!”
......
……Not only the members of powwoware cursing angrily, even the small number of peopledoes not attend todissuading of others, charges into the conference sitecenter.
议事会的成员们不光在怒骂,甚至少数人不顾其他人的劝阻,冲向会场中央。Runsinforefrontis of Theophantesgenerals, the general of thisshort temperrushes, gave a LouckLeonefistdirectly, immediatelyitis knocked down.
跑在最前面的就是将军之一的狄奥潘托斯,这位脾气暴躁的将军冲上去,直接就给了弗劳克利昂一拳,当即将其击倒在地。
In he must kick a footagain, anothergeneralMetofelesgraspedhim, shoutingworrying: „Do not violate‚the city-stateenvoyis free from aggression’ the sacredtradition, do not violate the Locrilaw!”
就在他还要再踢一脚时,另一位将军梅特洛菲尼斯抱住了他,着急的大喊:“不要违反‘城邦使者不受侵犯’的神圣传统,不要违反洛克里的法律!”Hears„law”twocharacters, justrushed the Locriperson who LouckLeonesurroundsallstiffens.
听到“法律”二字,刚刚冲上去将弗劳克利昂围住的洛克里人全都僵住了。Metofelesseizes the chanceto shout: „virtuemotorSirKase, you do not calm downthey, theymayprobablybecause ofviolating the regulationencounterpunishseverely!”梅特洛菲尼斯趁机喊道:“德摩多卡斯大人,你再不劝住他们,他们可就要因为违反律法而遭到严厉的处罚了!”By the Metofelesroll-callis mentionedinvirtuemotorKase who the one sidewatches the fun, as the chiefgeneral, hehas tostand, firstisargues: „ShamingLocriis the Locrienemy, everyonemaintains the city-statehonor, howcanbe countedis illegal?!”
原本在一旁看热闹的德摩多卡斯被梅特洛菲尼斯点名提及,作为首席将军,他不得不站出来,先是辩解道:“羞辱洛克里就是洛克里的敌人,大家维护城邦的荣誉,怎么能算作是违法呢?!”„Sir, right that said!”Somepeopleechoimmediately.
“大人,说的对!”有人立刻附和。„Good, everyonedraws back. The discussing official businessconference siteis the sacredplace, ourLocriiscivilizedcity-state, is notThurii, the matter that cannotmake the shameenvoycomes......”virtuemotorKasesaidwhilewalksto go forward, butmembers who powwowalsoobedientreturns to the seatin abundance.
“好啦,大家都退下来吧。议事会场是神圣的地方,我们洛克利是文明的城邦,可不是图里伊,不能做出羞辱使者的事情来……”德摩多卡斯边说边走上前,而议事会的成员们也听话的纷纷回到座位。virtuemotorKasewas the Locrichiefgeneralfor successive nine years, mainlybecause ofhisrelations by marriageDionysius. OriginallyLocriandSyracuseform an alliancewantto defeatmanyyears of mortal enemyCrotonewith the aid of the Syracusestrength, has not thoughtCrotonewas weakened, actuallydrills a more powerfulTheoniaalliance, particularly after southintentUnionis founded, LocribecomesshapesingleYingguinMagna Graecia, thereforeitdepends uponSyracuse, thusmademotorKasefamily'spositionmore prominent, support his uncleElder Brother that in additionDionysiusintended, virtuemotorKasein the Locriinfluenceistoday we are no longer as we have been.
德摩多卡斯连续九年担任洛克里的首席将军,主要是因为他的姻亲狄奥尼修斯。原本洛克里与锡拉库扎结盟就是想借助锡拉库扎的力量击败多年的死敌克罗托内,可没想到克罗托内是被削弱了,却又钻出一个更强大的戴奥尼亚联盟,尤其是南意同盟成立之后,洛克里更加在大希腊变得形单影孤,因此它就更依靠锡拉库扎,从而让德摩多卡斯家族的地位更加突出了,再加上狄奥尼修斯有意的扶持他这个大舅哥,德摩多卡斯在洛克里的影响力已经是今非昔比。Theophantesunwillingsnort/hum, drew back.狄奥潘托斯不甘的哼了一声,也退了回去。LouckLeonswaystands, on the mouthis not willingto admit defeat: „OnceThuriiold citybecause ofshameenvoy, thereforeitwas burnt downfinally......”
弗劳克列昂摇摇晃晃的站起来,嘴上仍不肯认输:“曾经的图里伊旧城就因为羞辱使者,所以它最后被焚毁了……”„Theonian, wantsto show off power must look at the place, hereis notthese in so-calledwhatsouthintentUnionflattersyourTheoniacity-state, hereisLocri!”virtuemotorKaseis sneering, the proudloudnesssaid: „Locridoes not haveandalsodisdaininmakingto assassinateyourarchon suchmatter, thereforewerejectanyunreasonablerequest of Theonia, pleaseroll!”
“戴奥尼亚人,想要逞强也要看地方,这里不是所谓的什么南意同盟里的那些讨好你们戴奥尼亚的城邦,这里是洛克里!”德摩多卡斯冷笑着,骄傲的大声说道:“洛克里既没有、也不屑于做出刺杀你们执政官这样的事,因此我们拒绝戴奥尼亚的任何无理的要求,你请滚回去吧!”Rejection! Althoughthisreplymatterinanticipation, LouckLeonstillinheartjoyful, hecancels the bloodstain of corners of the mouthwith the fingerunhurriedly, extends the handtovirtuemotorCastin front, twistedtwisting, thenlaunches, on the palmwipesblood red. Hislookwith deep veneration, sayingone word at a time: „Thatmeans the war!”
拒绝!虽然这个回答是在意料中的事,弗劳克列昂依然心中欣喜,他不慌不忙用手指抹去嘴角的血迹,将手伸到德摩多卡斯面前,捻了捻,然后展开,手掌上一抹血红。他神色肃然,一字一顿的说道:“那就意味着战争!”
