真是印象深刻的收藏 你这里确实有一些稀有的书 It's an impressive collection. You have some very rare editions here.
你们真的打算全部出手吗？ Are you sure you want to send them all?
自从我父亲变成这副样子以来 They're of no use to father, not anymore.
它们就已经没有用了 Not since he's been this way.
他的书房是他毕生的心血 而现在它们只是…… His library was his whole world. Now it's just...
一些痛苦的回忆 ...a painful memory.
不堪忍受的痛楚 Unbearably painful.
我明白 I understand.
呃…… Well,
据我的粗略估计 at a rough preliminary estimate
这里的所有的藏书 you have a collection here
- 大概值60万 - 60万？ - worth around 600,000 dollars. - 600,000?
是的，差不多 Yes, worth that about.
我发现有两卷 I have picked up one or two volumes
会有人非常感兴趣 that merit special attention.
比如这套《贝尔雷斯》 就非常罕见 This "Persiles", for example, is important.
好好保存它 这东西永远不会贬值 I'd hang on to that. It'll never depreciate.
- 不错的东西 - 很值钱吗？ - It's a good investment. - Valuable?
非常值钱 Very valuable.
至于这套1545年出版的 As for this "Hypneratomachia di Poliphilo"
威尼斯·科隆纳所著的 《Hypneratomachia di Poliphilo》 by Colonna, Venice, 1545,
不愁没有买家 I'm sure I can find you a buyer.
而剩下的藏书 无论如何... But I wouldn't let the rest go for less than 500,000
也决不会低于50万 under any circumstances.
可能要花上一个月来仔细估价 It may take a month to sort of place them
所以这段时间 你们需要有点耐心 so in the meantime I advise you to be patient
要花一个月？ A month?
是啊，一到两个月 要看你是不是急着要出手了 Yes, a month or two, depends on how much of a hurry you're in, and see,
越急着卖，越不值钱 more hurry, less money.
- 这样啊 - 当然，只是我的忠告 - Of course. - Well, that's my advice anyway.
我想你们应该不至于那么急吧 I'm sure you wouldn't want to rush things
当然你们大可找 其他专家来帮你们看 but please feel free to consult another expert
你们有任何问题 我随时恭候指教 aand if you have any questions you know where to reach me.
顺便提一下 这一套四册的《唐吉诃德》 Incidentally, this four-volume edition
当然也很好， 但不是特别值钱 of "Don Quixote" is quite nice, but not particularly valuable.
我可以 Now, I could
现在 take it off your hands
就买下来 right away.
那你要出多少？ How much were you thinking of?
我最多只能出四千二 Oh, I couldn't go more than 4,000 - 4,200
好，成交 Oh, fine.
- 你怎么在这？ - 你好，维特金 - You here? - Hello Witkin.
你倒是丝毫不浪费时间啊 You didn't waste much time.
嘿，你也可以进去搞点好东西 请便 Listen, there's a small fortune in there. Help yourself.
你真贪婪，高素！ 贪得无厌 You're a vulture Corso! A vulture!
- 做我们这行，谁不是？ - 你什么卑鄙勾当都干 - Who isn't in our business? - You'd stuck to anything.
为了这套易巴拉版的《唐吉诃德》，我会的 For a Quixote by Ybarra? You bet I would.
没道德的家伙！ 你真是道德败坏！ Unscrupulous! Thoroughly unscrupulous!
满载而归 Happy hunting.
维特金刚打电话来 他气得吐血 I've just got on the phone with Witkin. He's spitting blood.
是吗？他怎么了？ Really? What's his problem?
他说你是一个奸诈的骗钱鬼 He said you're a double-dealing moneygrabbing bastard.
他本来快谈成了那笔生意 而你扯了他后脚 He thought he had that deal sold up. He said you queered his pitch.
好事不等人 他应该比我先去 He should have been quicker and offer them more.
- 可以吗？ - 当然 - May I? - Sure.
他还说你的估价高出行价 And he said your evaluation was way over the top.
卖主也实在太着急了 And those people coming out in a rash
他们现在正找人进行第二次估价 now they're asking twice what those books are worth.
面对现实吧！ Let's face it.
- 你的确出卖了他 - 是这样吗？ - You screw it off, that's what it's called. - That's what it's called.
他们说你抢了那套《唐- He also said that you snatched the "Don Qui-"
易巴拉版的《唐吉诃德》，1780出版 Ybarra, "Don Quixote", 1780.
全四册 All four volumes.
你这衰人 真太棒了 Son of a bitch. Fantastic.
太厉害了，就你行 Fantastic, you are the best.
你那个瑞士客户，他会感兴趣吗？ That client of yours, the Swiss, d'ya think he'd still be interested in this edition?
眼下维特金正气的冒烟呢， 我跟他说过这事我没有插手 I have Witkin on my ass, I really told him I had no part in this operation.
除非给你一成 Except 10%.
不，两成。瑞士人是我的客户 20%. The Swiss is my client.
不行 No deal.
- 一成半吧，看在我孩子的份上 - 你没有子女吧 - 15, for my children's sake. - You don't have any children.
我还年轻，将来会有的 I'm still young, give me time.
一成 Ten.
1580年早期出版的《国家六论》 ...and earlier in 1580, in "De la D鑝onomanie des sorciers"
法国人让·布丹的名著 by the French Jean Bodin.
布丹可能是第一个 尝试建立新体制的人 Bodin was probably the first to attempt to estabilish a system,
这样的体制可能仍适用于中世纪， if the term "system" may be applied to the Middle Ages,
因为他把当时的人们 对邪恶的认知进行分类 for classifying the contemporary perceptions of evil.
在布丹的书里，我们发现了 首例给“巫师”的定义 In Bodin we find one of the first definitions of the word "witch".
他说： I quote:
“巫师就是那些 "A witch is a person
明知正邪不两立， who, though cognizant in the laws of God,
又竭力通过某种媒介与魔鬼沟通的人 endeavours to act thorugh the medium of a pact with the Devil.
为了协助她们的工作 许多巫师都有亲信 To assist them in their work, many witches kept familiars,
也就是某种动物 例如猫、蟾蜍等 that is to say creatures such as cats or toads
她们相信那些鬼魂、魔鬼们 会附身于这些动物 in which supernatural spirits or demons were thought to reside.
各位如果有兴趣深入了解的话 For those of you, ladies and gentlemen who wish to dare more deeply
可以在以下... into the controvertial subject of witchcraft,
关于魔法的著作中 a great deal of relevant information
找到大量相关的资料 may be found in the following works:

以及弗朗西斯·玛利亚·瓜佐的 《邪术概略》 and "Compendium Maleficarum", by Francesco Maria Guazo.
我的演讲让你乏味了吧 高素先生 I see you were stimulated by my little talk, Mr. Corso.
我没有打鼾吧？ Did I snore?
谢谢你还问这个 没有，我没注意 Most nice of you to ask. No, not that I noticed.
可以走吗？ Shall we go?
- 昨晚睡得好吗？ - 好极了 - Don't you sleep nice? - Like a baby.
那就奇怪了 Strange.
我敢拿一套古腾堡版的圣经打赌 I'd have bet a brace of Gutenberg Bibles
你昨晚肯定没睡好觉 you spend half the night with your eyes peeled
你这种野心勃勃的人 You're one of those lean, hungry restless types
连朱利叶斯·凯撒也惧你三分 that put the wind up Julius Caesar.
而且你还出卖朋友 Men who stab their friends in the back.
否则我敢保证你很有人缘，高素先生 Not that I suspect you have many friends, do you Mr. Corso?
你现在没几个朋友 Your kind seldom does.
我们当然不一样 That makes two of us.
是啊，当然 You're right, of course.
你的友谊丝毫不关我的事 Your friendships don't concern me in the least.
我们之间一直只是商业关系 而那正是我喜欢的 Our relations have always been strictly commercial, and that's the way I like it.
公私应该分明 The professional and the personal should be mutually exclusive.
听着，我来这为了谈生意 不是来听你废话的 Listen, I came here to do some business, not to shoot to breeze.
如果你想要宣扬你个人的哲学 去再写一本书吧 If you want to expound you personal philosophies, write another book.
你讨厌我，是吗？ You don't like me, do you?
我没必要讨厌你 你只是我一个客户，出手阔绰 I don't have to like you. You're a client and you pay well.
你享受特别待遇，高素先生 You're a priviledged, Mr. Corso.
没有几个人能进来这里 Very few people ever set foot in here.
这些是我的私人藏书 This is my private collection.
一些藏书者专门研究哥特小说 Some bibliophiles specialise in gothic novels,
一些则偏爱历史 others in Books of Hours.
而我这里所有的善本 却有一个共同的主题 All my own rare editions have the same protagonist:
“魔鬼” the Devil.
- 我能看看吗？ - 请便 - May I take a look? - Yes.
这就是我找你来的原因 That's why I brought you here.
很美，不是吗？ Beautiful, aren't they?
它们柔和的光泽 它们华丽的装帧 Their soft sheen, their superb guilding,
那个年代他们拥有的智慧 毋庸质疑 not to mention the centuries of wisdom they contain.
我知道有人为这些书而杀人 I know people who would kill for a collection like this.
“魔鬼的艺术” The "Ars Diavoli".
同类主题的书， 你再也看不到这样规模的了 You'll never see as many books on the subject anywhere else in the world.
这批珍藏，举世无双 They're the rarest, the choicest editions in existence.
我花了一生来收集它们 It's taken me a lifetime to assemble them.
唯一的遗憾是缺少 一件最伟大的著作 Only the supreme masterpiece was missing.
这边 Come.
《地狱九道门》 "The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows".
- 你了解这个？ - 没错，1666年威尼斯出版 - You're familiar with it. - Yes, Venice 1666.
同是作者和印书者的阿里斯缇德·拓奇亚 被宗教裁判所执行火焚 The author and printer Aristide Torchia was burned by the Holy Inquisition
包括他所有的著作一起 together with all his works.
- 只有三本被幸存了下来 - 一本 - Only three copies survived. - One.
这三本现在被私人收藏 The Catalogue has three copies surviving, of private ownership:
法戈斯，科斯勒和特尔佛 the Fargas, the Kessler and the Telfer.
确实如此，你的确是行家 但是你错了 It's true, you know your business. But you're mistaken nonetheless.
根据我的研究，只有一个是真本 According to my own research, only one is authentic.
我知道的就有三本 Well, three are known.
问题就在这里 That's the trouble.
- 这本你怎么搞到的？ - 从特尔佛手中买的 - Where did you get it? - I bought it from Telfer.
- 特尔佛？ - 是的，颇费周章 - Telfer? - Yes, he fnally sold it to me.
就在他自杀的前一天 The day before he killed himself.
真是个好时机 That's good timing.
"Silentium est aureum" "Silentium est aureum".
- 沉默是金 - 正是 - Silence is golden. - Precisely.
听说过《Delomelanicon》吗？ Ever heard of the "Delomelanicon"?
是啊，我知道一些 是个传说，对吧？ I have heard of it, yes. It's a myth, isn't it?
据说是一本魔鬼（撒旦）亲著的书 A book reputed to have been written by Satan himself
不是传说，真的有这本书 No myth. That book existed.
事实上拓奇亚拿到了这本书 Torchia actually acquired it.
你现在欣赏的插图 就是拓奇亚根据《Delomelanicon》改编的 The engravings you are now admiring were adapted by Torchia from the "Delomelanicon".
它们是邪恶的迷 They form a kind of satanic riddle.
依照原文的帮助正确转译而来 Correctly interpreted with the aid of the original text,
里面充满着玄机 and sufficient inside information,
据说通过它们可以召唤魔鬼 they're reputed to conjure up the Prince of Darkness in person.
我知道 You don't say.
你信仰宗教吗，高素先生？ Are you a religious man, Mr. Corso?
我是说，你是否相信鬼神？ I mean, do you believe in the supernatural?
我相信我的佣金 I believe in my percentage.
你站在那儿晕不晕？ Aren't you getting dizzy standing there?
巴肯先生，请我来到底所为何事？ What is it that you want from me, Balkan?
我要你去欧洲调查 I want you to go to Europe and investigate.
另外两本分别在葡萄牙和法国 The other two copies are in Portugal and France.
我要你拿它们与我的这本比较 I want you to find some way of comparing them with mine.
每一页，每幅插图 以及装订，所有一切 Every page, every engraving, the binding, everything.
我确信只有一本是真的 我想知道是哪本 I'm convinced only one is authentic I wanna know which.
这一趟肯定花费不少 That can be an expensive trip.
你尽管去做，费用不用担心 That's to get you started. Spend what you need.
万一我发现你这本是赝品呢？ What if I find that your copy's a forgery?
那很有可能 It's quite possible.
真的？ Really?
似乎不是赝品 It doesn't appear to be.
纸张听来也正宗 Even the paper sounds couture.
虽然如此，一定有漏洞的 Even so, something's wrong.
你是说魔鬼不想公开露面 You mean the Devil won't show up.
一旦你发现三本都是赝品或残本 你的工作就结束了 If all three copies turn out to be bogus or incomplete your work will be done.
反之，如果有一个是真本的话 我会增加你的酬劳 If, on the other hand, one of them turns out to be genuine, I'll finance you further.
我要你帮我弄到手 I want you to get it for me.
不惜成本，不择手段 At all costs. Nevermind how.
“不择手段”听起来象非法勾当 "Nevermind how" sounds illegal.
不要跟我假装你很清白 It wouldn't be the first time you've done something illegal.
- 信不信由你 - 看一下你的支票吧 - Not that illegal. - Hence the size of the check.
干漂亮点，酬金我会加倍 Do a good job. I'll double it.
你这么信任我，让我受宠若惊 There's gotta be something wrong with it if you're letting it out of your hands.
我对你期望很高，高素先生 I have the outmost faith in you, Mr. Corso.
没有比一个能收买的男人更可靠的了 There's nothing more reliable than a man whose loyalty can be bought for hand cash.
早上好，我是迪安·高素 Good morning. Dean Corso.
我很抱歉这个时候打扰你 I'm terribly sorry to disturb you at a time like this.
夫人，如果你能告诉我这本书的任何事情 It would be very helpful ma'am if you could tell me what you know about
我将十分感谢 this book.
- 这不是我丈夫的书吗？ - 没错 - Isn't this one of my husband's books? - Right.
直到他买给我的一个客户之前还是 It was in his collection until very recently. He sold it to a client of mine.
我的工作是对它鉴定 I'm trying to authenticate it.
你说他把它买掉了？ He sold it, you say?
那怎么可能，这可是他的宝贝 How strange, this was one of his most treasured possessions.
- 他没告诉你？ - 不，我现在才知道 - He never mentioned this sale? - No, it's news to me.
- 他买给了谁？ - 一个私人收藏家 - Who bought it? - A private collector.
能告诉我名字吗？ May I know his name?
对不起，我要保守商业秘密 I'm afraid that's confidential.
- 他有买卖单据吗？ - 肯定有的 - I suppose he has a bill of sale. - No problem there.
你专门鉴定稀有书籍？ Is this your job? Authenticating rare books?
没错. 还替客户搜集 And tracking them down, yes.
- 那你是书籍侦探了？ - 差不多 - You're a book-detective. - Kind of.
你还记得你丈夫从哪里买到这本书的吗？ Do you recall when and where your husband acquired this book?
在西班牙 In Spain.
我们当时在托莱多度假 安德鲁发现它时很兴奋 We were vacationing at Toledo. Andrew was very excited.
他付重金买下了它 He paid a great deal of money for it.
他曾经是一个狂热的收藏家 He was a fanatical collector.
我猜也是 So I gather.
我带你参观 I'll show you.
很壮观 It's impressive.
安德鲁花了很多时间在这儿 Andrew used to spend many hours in here.
是太多时间... Too many.
他有没有试过？ Did he ever try it out?
试什么？ I don't understand.
那本书 The book.
他有没有用它做过法式？ Did he ever use it to perform some kind of ritual
像是招魂一类的？ intended to produce a supernatural effect?
- 你不是在开玩笑吧？ - 当然不是 - Are you serious? - Yes, absolutely.
高素先生，安德鲁的确有点古怪 Andrew was a trifle eccentric, Mr. Corso,
但还不至于有神经病 But he wasn't insane.
是啊，在他自杀的前几天 It's true he'd been acting
确实有些异样 strange in those last few days,
他整日把自己关在这里 除了吃饭，很少出来 he shut himself up in here, he seldom emerged, except for meals.
直到那天早晨 我被女佣的尖叫声吓醒 That morning I was awoken by the screams of the maid.
他自缢身亡 He'd hanged himself.
不论他到底在做什么， Whatever he was up to,
反正我没听他念过咒或想把死人复活 I certainly can't see him chanting mambo jambo or trying to raise the dead.
是魔鬼，特尔佛夫人 这本书能使魔鬼复活 The Devil, Mrs. Telfer. This book is designed to raise the Devil.
"Sic luceat lux" "Sic luceat lux".
“光芒如此耀眼” "Thus might the light shine".
你这混蛋. 从哪搞到的？ Son of a bitch. Where did you get this?
巴肯 Balkan.
他要我帮他研究 He wants me to research it.
巴肯也有一本《九道门》？ Balkan owns a "Nine Gates"?
安德鲁·特尔佛死前卖给了他 Recently acquired by the late lamented Andrew Telfer.
相信巴肯... Trust Balkan...
他想怎样？别说他想卖掉 What does he need you for? I don't suppose he plans to sell it?
他要我找到其它两本 跟他的这本比较 He wants me to compare it with the other two survival copies
那两本在葡萄牙和法国 which are in Portugal and France.
所以我要去欧洲一趟 So I'm off to Europe.
进行比较？ Compare it?
是啊，他说只有一本是真货 Yes. Only one of the three is authentic, he says.
这本看起来已经够真的了 But this looks genuine enough.
上帝啊，这可值上百万 小心保管啊 Chrissake, it's gotta be worth a million. Take care of it.
所以我过来找你 我要你把它藏好 That's why I'm here. I need you to stash it for me.
因为我都开始产生幻觉了 'Cause I'm starting to see things.
- 什么幻觉？ - 不速之客，陌生面孔 - Like what? - Uninvited visitors, unfamiliar faces.
我谁也不相信 即使巴肯本人 I don't trust anyone, not even Balkan.
我在想是不是该相信你 I come to think I'm not even sure I trust you.
我一般是不会出卖你的 You know I wouldn't screw you unless there was a good reason:
除了给我钱、女人和生意... money, women, business...
别的我一概没有兴趣 Other than that you can relax.
- 上飞机时我会来取 - 好的 - I'll take it up on my way to the airport. - Sure.
这些插图真是恐怖 These engravings are terrific.
或者说，毛骨悚然 Or horrific, whichever.
太棒了 真的太棒了 Sensational, absolutely sensational.
可以进来吗？ May I come in?
请坐 Please, sit down.
我是来想跟你做笔生意的 I've come to talk business.
昨天你带着那本书来找我 Yesterday, when you came to see me about that book,
我当时太激动了，没有好好跟你谈 I was too surprised to react as I should have done.
我是说，这本书真是安德鲁的最爱 I mean it really was one of Andrew's favourites.
你说过 So you said.
我想把它要回来 I'd like to get it back.
- 这可能有点难 - 未必吧，要看情况了 - That could be a problem. - Not necessarily, it all depends.
- 什么情况？ - 看你 - On what? - On you.
我不懂，特尔佛夫人 这本书又不是我的，我做不了主 I don't understand, Mrs. Terfel. The book is not mine to dispose of.
你为了钱干这个，是吧 You work for money, I take it?
没错 What else?
- 我很有钱 - 我替你高兴 - I have a great deal of money. - I'm very happy for you.
你可以演一出失窃的好戏 You could stage a theft.
我猜你的客户应该投了巨额保险 I imagine your client is well insured.
- 这是我的职业啊，夫人 - 不也是为了钱 - I'm a professional, ma'am. - You're a professional mercenary.
谁给价最高为谁工作 Mercenaries work for the highest bidder.
我以这个为生
我给你额外的酬劳 I could throw in a bonus.
- 这一幕好象在哪见过 - 我知道，在电影里 - This has happened before in some place. - I know, in the movies.
女的长袜里通常藏了枪... She had an automatic her stocking...

好吧，它在哪里？ Okay. Where is it?
什么东西在哪里？ Where's what?

你人在哪？我把书还你 I wanna return you the book. Where are you?
我对你很失望，高素先生 你以前不是这样 I'm disappointed in you, Mr. Corso. You never let me down before.
但这次不同 Well, this is different.

我把你的书给他保管 I gave him your book to stash it for me
他刚刚死了，被谋杀 and now he's dead, murdered.
- 因为这本书？ - 不然是什么？ - Because of the book? - What else?
听着，我从没说这件事容易 但如果是因为钱的问题... Look, I've never said it would be easy. If it's a question of money...
不关钱的事，我要退出 It isn't the money, I want out.
这件事对我很重要 高素先生 This matter means a great deal to me, Mr. Corso.
我不是小气的人 这你也知道 I'm not an ungenerous man, you know that.
一切照常进行， 你可以在酬劳后再添个零 Proceed as arranged, and you can tack another zero onto your fee.
什么... 嘿，你在哪里？ What... Hey, where are you?

买主不是特尔佛先生吗？ I understood that it was Mr. Telfer that had bought it.
他只是了付钱 He'd pay for it.

- 他似乎并不十分... - ...感兴趣 - He didn't seem particularly... - ...interested.
非常奇怪 An exceptional specimen.

我以为你是专家呢 而你竟轻率的说它是赝品 I took you for a professional. You speak too lightly of forgeries.
太轻率了 Far too lightly.
有这样的赝品也很值钱 Forging a book is very expensive.
当时的纸张，上好的油墨 毫无利益可图 Paper of the period, right inks, Too expensive to be profitable.
- 现在还能伪造吗？ - 当然 - Still it can be done. - Of course.
只要有高明的技术， 是的，能做出来 It requires a great skill, but yes it can be done.

我的客户对这本书的真伪很感兴趣 My client wishes to satisfy himself on the book's authenticity.
他叫巴肯， 纽约的波利斯·巴肯 His name's Balkan. Boris Balkan of New York.
- 每一本书都有它自己的命运 - 它们有自己的宿命 - All books have a destiny of their own. - And a life of their own.
巴肯先生是位著名的收藏家 Mr. Balkan is a celebrated collector.

- 我们都知道 - 所以他也是 - We know it. - So must he.
- 我们拥有它已多年 - 很多年 - We've had this book for years. - Many years.
我们有足够的时间来细细研究它 With ample opportunity to study it thoroughly.
它的印刷、装订 The printing, the binding,
绝对是十七世纪 威尼斯技术的至高典范 are magnificent examples of 17th century Venetian craftsmanship.
最好的碎布优质纸 能抵制岁月的侵蚀 Finest rag-paper. Resistent to the passage of time.
不像现代木质纸浆 None of your modern wood-pulp.
看这些水印，墨水 Watermarks, ink,
和字体... typefaces...
怎么都不像是赝品 If this is a forgery,
如果这是仿造品， 那也算是大师之作了 or a copy with missing pages restored, is the work of a master.
你们有研究过插图吗？ 它们似乎有隐意 Have you studied the engravings? They seem to have some underlying significance.
确实是这样 But of course.
比如，这幅图 Here, for example.
这个可能是警告的意思 This one could be interpreted as a warning:
看上去好像说“危险在前方” 实则是“祸从天降” "Venture too far" it seems to say, "and danger will descend on you from above".
这类书籍总是有些让人疑惑之处 These types of books often contain little puzzles.
尤其是有一位如此杰出的合著者 Especially in the case of such an illustruous collaborator.
合著者？ Collaborator?
看来你的研究没法继续 你要走很多弯路啊，先生 You could have not proceeded, very far in your research, Se駉r.
这里，仔细看 Here. look close.
看到了吗？九幅插图只有六幅 签有作者阿里斯缇德·拓奇亚的名 Don't you see? Only six of the nine engravings were signed by Aristide Torchia.
是啊，那另外三幅呢？ Yes. And the other three?
这就是其一 This is one of them.
L, C, F. L, C, F.
LCF是谁？ Who's LCF?
动动脑筋 Think.
撒旦？ Lucifer?
你很聪明啊，先生 Very perceptive of you, Se駉r.
拓奇亚被火活活烧死 Torchia was burnt alive
因为他与别人合写这本书 because he wrote this book in collaboration with someone else.
算了吧，你不会这么迷信吧... Come on. You can't honestly believe...
因为作者与魔鬼达成了同盟 The man who wrote this book did so in alliance with the Devil

老家族就像远古社会 But old families are like ancient civilisations,
衰败，然后消亡 they wither and die.
它们在那，一共834本 There they are, 834 of them.
很遗憾你见不到它们辉煌的时候 What a pity you didn't see them in better times.
我曾经有五千本 I used to have 5,000.
但现在就剩这些了 But these are the survivors.
这些就是法戈斯的藏书 So this is the Fargas collection.
与我想象的颇有出入 Not quite as I imagined it I must say.
这就是生活，我的朋友 C'est la vie, my friend.
即使如此，我还是悉心照料它们 避免受潮、强光、受热和老鼠 But I keep them in perfect conditions, safe from damp, light, heat, rats.
我每天除尘，换新鲜空气 I dust and air them every day.
这些都是玄学类 These are the occult.
- 你觉得怎样？ - 不俗 - What do you think? - Not bad.
是很不俗，起码有十本极其珍贵 Not bad indeed. At least ten of them are extremely rare.
看这本，普兰西著的《地狱典故》 Here: Plancy, "Dictionnaire Infernal",
1844年的首印本 first edition, 1844.
1571年的李奥纳多·菲奥纳瓦帝的 《隐秘手册》 Leonardo Fioravanti's "Compendi dei Secreti", 1571.
还有这一本 And there it is,
完美无暇 in perfect condition.
这本书存世已达三个半世纪 It has travelled the world for three and a half centuries,
至今仍跟新的一样 yet it might have been printed yesterday.
正常吗？我是说... 有没有察觉不寻常的地方？ Is it in order? I mean you haven't detected anything unusual?
不寻常？没有 Unusual? no.
正文没有残缺，插图也毫发无损 一如目录中所示 The text is complete, the engravings too, nine plus the title page's,
跟巴黎科斯勒、纽约特尔佛的没什么两样 as the catalogue states, just like the Kessler in Paris and the Telfer in New York.
是啊... 不再是特尔佛的了 Yes... It isn't the Telfer anymore.
特尔佛自杀了 Telfer killed himself.
他死前把书买给了波利斯·巴肯 But he sold his copy to Boris Balkan first.
啊，巴肯 Oh, Balkan.
只要他看中一本书，再贵也要买 If he sets his eye on a book no price is too high.
不过，我这本绝对不会卖 多少钱都不卖 Not that I would ever sell this one. Not at any price.
很奇怪，他已经有了一本... It's strange that he should have sent you here if he...
...为什么还派你过来？ ...already had...
你把它带来了？ Do you have it here?
我能看看吗？ May I see it?
啊，漂亮 Oh, superb.
太美了，一模一样 Beautiful. Identical.
仅存的三本中，两本已欲火重生了 Two of the only three to escape the flames
三个世纪来的第一次相聚 reunited for the first time in over three centuries.
不错 Yes.
看这个小瑕疵 破损的“S” Look at this slight imperfection here, the damaged "S"...
同一字体，同一印刷 The same type, the same impression.
哦，难以置信 Oh, incredible.
要不是你的这本后面有点脱色 As you see if it wasn't for this slight discoloration on the back of your copy
没人能分清它们 no one could tell them apart.
如果不介意我想多呆一会儿 详细研究一下 If you don't mind I would like to stay for a while and examine them in detail.
你想研究什么？高素先生 What are you looking for, Mr. Corso?
还不知道 I'm not quite sure.
有些书很危险，开卷招祸 Some books are dangerous, not to be opened with impunity.
的确如此 Very true.
我会被诅咒的 I'll be damned!
又见面了 Hello again.
- 你没说你要来辛特拉[葡萄牙西部城镇] - 你也没有 - You didn't say you were bound for Sintra. - Neither did you.

对不起，先生 可以接到我房间吗？ Se駉r, pardon me. Could you send this up to my room?
- 好的 - 非常感谢 - Yes. - Thank you very much.
- 还在吗？ - 是的 - Still there? - Yes.
我看过法戈斯的那本了 Alright. I've examined the Fargas copy.
也不像是假的 至少看起来不是 It's authentic enough, at least it looks that way.
跟你的很相似 但还是有所出入 It's like yours, but there are discrepancies.
出入？ Discrepancies?
插图有细微的差异 The engravings are not identical.
比如握钥匙的手不同 Just like keys in different hands,

- 还有一个地方 - 是吗，是什么？ - And there's another thing. - Yes. Yes, go on.
有些插图的签名不是拓奇亚 而是LCF The ones that differ aren't signed Torchia. They're signed LCF.
- 你在听吗？ - LCF - Still there? - LCF.
听着，你究竟在哪里？ Listen, where are you anyway?
我必须得到那本书 高素先生 I must have that copy, Mr. Corso.
帮我拿到它 Get it for me.
那老头已经说白了，他坚决不卖 The old man wouldn't sell it to save his life. He said as much.
真的？ Did he?
喂？喂？ Hello? Hello?
等一下 Just a minute!
- 现在几点了？ - 还早，但你要起程了 - What time is it? - Early, but you have to go.
- 起程？去哪？ - 法戈斯家 - Go? Go where? - To Fargas' place.
我已经拜访过他了 I've already seen Fargas.
我想你最好再去一趟 I think you should see him again.

- 你知道法戈斯什么事？ - 穿衣服，我在外面等你 - What do you know about Fargas? - Get dressed. I'll wait for you outside.

万能的主啊... God Almighty...
你要进去？ You want to get inside?

你呆在这 You wait here.
可恶！ Shit!
你找到它了？ Well, did you find it?
嘿，我才意识到你知道的这么多！ You know, it's come to my attention that you know too goddam much.
你为什么跟踪我？ 谁派你来的？ Why do you keep following me around? Who are you working for?
别浪费时间问东问西的了 我们最好先离开这里 You're wasting time asking all these questions. We better get out of here.
中午有一趟从里斯本到巴黎的班机 我们必须赶上 There's a flight from Lisbon to Paris at noon. We should just make it.
- “我们”是谁？ - 除了你跟我，还有谁？ - What's with the "we"? - There are two of us, aren't there?
那里到底发生了什么？ What happened back there?
我猜，老头子是遇上了小偷了 The old man caught someone stealing, I guess.
- 那你认为他怎么会丧命？ - 他溺水了 - And what do you guess happened to him? - He drowned.
- 谁淹死他的？ - 他已经死了，谁在乎？ - With a little help from who? - He's dead, who cares?
我在乎 I do.
我也可能会一不留神就挂掉 I could easily end up the same way.
跟我在一起就不会，我会保护你 Not with me around to look after you.
- 哦，是啊，你是我的守护天使 - 你说是就是 - Oh I see, you're my guardian angel. - If you say so...

你有三十分钟 You have thirty minutes.
- 什么事？ - 高素先生来了 - Yes? - Monsieur Corso.
哦是的，高素先生，请进 Oh yes, Mr. Corso. Come in.
久仰你的大名啊 I've heard a great deal about you.
- 是臭名远扬吧 - 你真识趣 - Nothing good I hope. - You hoped right.
谢谢你，西蒙尼 Thanks, Simone.
呃，很高兴你这样说 男爵夫人，因为... Well, I'm reassured, Baroness, because
干我们这行，口碑好的... in my trade to be spoken well of
就只能喝西北风 can be professionally disastrous.
天啊 My God.
是的，这就是科斯勒藏书 Yes, there it is. The Kessler Collection.
你知道吗，我几乎背得出你的书目 You know I know your catalogue almost by heart?
真遗憾，我们早该见面 Strange we haven't met before.
藏书界中，你是响当当的人物 Your name is a byword among dealers and collectors.
当然，你的名声你自己最清楚 But I imagine you know your own reputation better than I do.
是啊，也仅仅是勉强度日 Yes, well it does keep the wolf from the door, so to speak.
失礼了男爵夫人， 不知您最近在忙什么？ I'm sorry Baroness. Where you in the middle of something?
我最近写的书： Of my latest work:
《魔鬼的历史和神话》 类似于自传 "The Devil, History and Myth". A kind of biography.
在明年年初会出版 It will be published early next year.
- 为什么写魔鬼？ - 我曾经见过他一面 - Why the Devil? - I saw him one day.
我那时15岁，至今我还记得很清楚 I was 15 years old and I saw him as plain as I see you now.
就像一见钟情 It was love at first sight.
你知道，在三百年前... You know, 300 years ago
你说这些话是要遭火焚的 you'd have been burned at the stake for saying something like that.
三百年前我就不会说了 300 years ago I wouldn't have said it.
当然也不会写书来赚大钱 Nor would I have made a million by writing about it.
是啊 Yeah.
你来所为何事？高素先生 What is it you wish to discuss, Mr. Corso?
你这里有一本书，我想研究研究 There's a book in your collection I'd like to examine if possible.
书名是《地狱九道门》 It's the book of "The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows".
《九道门》？ 一本独特的著作 The "Nine Gates"? An interesting work.
最近似乎引起不少人兴趣 Everyone's been asking me about it lately.
真的吗？ Is that so?
跟我来 Follow me.
你真的相信魔鬼吗？男爵夫人 You truly believe in the Devil, Baroness?
相信到愿意为他 奉献一生和我的图书馆 Enough to devote my life and my library to him.
更不用说我这些年写的书了 Not to mention many years of work.
你不相信？ Don't you?
差点相信 Almost.
看这本书要有强烈的信念 This book demands a certain amount of faith.
是啊，可惜我最近信念不足 Well, I'm afraid my faith's in short supply these days.
我很熟悉这本书，研读了多年 I know this work extremely well. I studied it for years.
你有没有怀疑过不是真本？ Do you have any doubts about its authenticity?
毫不怀疑 Not wheresoever.
你肯定？ Are you sure?
我对这本书了若指掌 My knowledge of this book is profound.
还给其作者写过传记 I wrote a biography of its author.
是的，我拜过： 《魔鬼门生阿里斯缇德·拓奇亚》 Yes, I read it: "Aristide Torchia, the Devil's Apprentice",
精彩之作 Excellent work.
一个狂人 A corageous man.
他因为这本奇书死于1667年 He died for the sake of this very book in 1667.
他在布拉格学习魔法的时候 While studying the Black Arts in Prague,
得到了这一本恐怖的书 《Delomelanicon》 he acquired a copy of the dread "Delomelanicon".
这本撒旦亲著的书， This is Torchia's adaptation of that work
被拓奇亚改编成了现在这本书 which was written by Lucifer himself.
就在他们烧死他之后 After they burned him at the stake, a secret society
有人组成秘密会社纪念他 was founded, to perpetuate its memory,
并把书的秘密代代相传 and preserve its secrets.
“银蛇会” "The Order of the Silver Serpent".
什么，是教派吗？ What, a sect?
某种巫师聚会 A kind of witches' coven.
几世纪来，他们在会上都要吟诵这本书 For centuries they've met to read from this book
膜拜魔鬼 and worship the Prince of Darkness.
如今这个组织沦为某种社交俱乐部 Today it's degenerated into a social club
只对那些有钱人或名人开放 for bored millionaires and celebrities,
他们用开会作幌子 who use its meetings as an excuse
实则是为了放纵他们低级的性欲 to indulge their jaded sexual appetites.
我曾经也是这个组织的会员 I myself belonged to the Order,
那是多年前的事
