Sunday Morning
"Sunday Morning" ('Mane diei solis') est poema a Wallace Stevens, poeta Americano, factum. Textus, partim in fasciculo Poetry magazinae Novembri 1915, tum plene anno 1923 in Harmonio, primo poetae libro poesis, prolatus, nunc in dominio publico est.[1] Sic incipiunt verba poematis:
Verba Anglica Verba Latine reddita
Complacencies of the peignoir, and late
Coffee and oranges in a sunny chair,
And the green freedom of a cockatoo
Upon a rug mingle to dissipate
The holy hush of ancient sacrifice.
She dreams a little, and she feels the dark
Encroachment of that old catastrophe.Neglegentiae pectinis,[2] et serum
coffeum citrique in sella aprica,
atque viride cacatuidae arbitrium
in stragulum ad dissipandum miscentur
sanctum sacrificii antiqui silentium.
Paululum somniat ea, obscuramque sentit
usurpationem illius calamitatis priscae.
Poema sic finem habet, imagines naturales versuum ultimorum "Ode to Autumn," poematis Ioannis Keats, recordans:
Verba Anglica Verba Latine reddita
Deer walk upon our mountains, and the quail
Whistle about us their spontaneous cries;
Sweet berries ripen in the wilderness;
And in the isolation of the sky,
At evening, casual flocks of pigeons make
Ambiguous undulations as they sink,
Downward to darkness, on extended wings.Cervi nostros montes incedunt, et phasianidae
vociferationes voluntarias circa nos sibilant;
dulces in desertis maturantur baccae;
atque in solitudine caelesti,
vespere greges columbarum fortuiti faciunt
undulationes ambiguas cum merguntur,
deorsum ad obscuritatem, alis extentis.
De hoc poemate, Stevens scripsit, colore presso et stomachoso quem talibus commentariis reservavit, id esse "simpliciter paganismum expressum."[3][4] Etiamsi, haec proprietas est paganismus expolitus postchristianus, propria infusione Stevensiana ordinis naturae cum proprietatibus transcendentalibus imbutus. Se definit per concors Christiano immortalitis regnique transcendentalis impetui responsum.[5][6] Mulier de qua poeta loquitur priscam sacrificii Iesu calamitatem somnians sentit, quam pignus beatudinis incorruptae videre solet, sed ea ad ultimum intellegit:
Verba Anglica Verba Latine reddita
She hears, upon that water without sound,
A voice that cries, "The tomb in Palestine
Is not the porch of spirits lingering.
It is the grave of Jesus, where he lay."
Volatus gregum neglegentium columbarum ad conclusionem poematis eas deorsum ad obscuritatem defert, non praeter caelum. Momentum eorum deminutionis quod poeta capit est immortale solo sensu qui multum refert.
Poema legi potest refutatio subtilis Spiritus Adiuncti in Ioannis Miltoni Comus, poemate quod caelestia terrestribus praefert.[7] Statuere potest Henricum Matisse esse spiritum consanguineum Stevensianum, quoniam ambo artifices "paganum gaudium vitale in appellationes penitus humanas vertunt."[8][9]
