n. 阿拉克尼(吕狄亚少女,善织绣)
Arachne filled her canvas with similar subjects, wonderfully well done, but strongly marking her presumption and impiety.
阿拉喀涅用类似的主题填满了她的画布。

当她俩的作品完成后,阿刺克涅惊奇地发现自己被打败了,因为女神的图案确实比她的好。
She struck the web with her shuttle and rent it in pieces; she them touched the forehead of Arachne and made her feel her guilt and shame.
她用梭子猛击织物,并把它 弄得粉碎,之后她 摸了一下阿拉喀涅的额头使她感到内疚和羞耻。
Arachne by name, did not seem to think much of Athena's dexterity, for she frequently boasted that she could beat the goddess if she had the opportunity to do so.

Arachne(希腊语:Ἀράχνη)是古希腊神话中的一位凡人女性,因纺织技艺高超而闻名。根据奥维德《变形记》第六卷记载,她因公开挑战智慧女神雅典娜的纺织技艺,最终被女神惩罚并变为蜘蛛。该词在现代语境中常被用于生物学、文学及艺术领域,具有多重衍生含义。
词源与神话起源
Arachne一词源于古希腊语“ἀράχνη”,意为“蜘蛛”。在神话中,她因自夸纺织技艺超越雅典娜而引发神怒。雅典娜将她的织布撕毁后,Arachne试图自缢,但被女神施法变为蜘蛛,令其永生织网。这一故事成为西方文化中“傲慢招致惩罚”的经典寓言,在文艺复兴时期绘画(如委拉斯开兹作品)和但丁《神曲·炼狱篇》中均有体现(来源:大英百科全书,https://www.britannica.com/topic/Arachne)。
现代科学与文化引用
语言学影响
西班牙语“araña”、法语“araignée”等罗曼语系词汇均承袭该希腊词根。英语成语“spin a web”(编织谎言)亦可追溯至这一神话典故,暗示语言与纺织在人类认知中的深层关联(来源:《牛津英语词源词典》,https://global.oup.com)。
Arachne 是一个源自希腊神话的专有名词,其含义和背景可从以下两方面解析:
在希腊神话中,Arachne 是一位凡人纺织女工,因高超的编织技艺向雅典娜发起挑战。她在比赛中编织出揭露众神劣迹的图案,击败了雅典娜。但因此举触怒女神,被惩罚上吊自尽。雅典娜后来将她复活为蜘蛛,令其永世织网。这解释了:
发音提示:英式发音为 /əˈrækni/,重音在第二节,可谐音为「阿-拉克-尼」。由于涉及古希腊语转写,不同文献可能存在发音差异。
