We have an image here of the reconstituted, repaired body of Orpheus whose gory, severed head had been sent down the swift Hebrus to the Lesbian shore. It's as if Milton can't let go of this most un-Christian attachment to the human body.

So, anyway. Okay. But now, that modernist tradition is something that Nabokov owes a lot to, but he always tries to distinguish himself from it. For Nabokov, the highest value is originality.

But actually, the thing I want to think about is a crude pun there, a "fairy" tale. Proust is himself gay. One of his big subjects is homosexuality, and Nabokov's reaction to this is really homophobic. This is not just about Nabokov's personal prejudice.
但事实上，我想说的是这里的一个粗糙的双关语，一个“童话“故事，普鲁斯特是一个同性恋，他讨论的一个,话题就是同性恋，但纳博科夫对此是相当反感的,这仅仅是因为纳博科夫的个人偏见。

-
You might think of walking in here expecting Professor Hungerford on censorship and getting me instead. But this is a very important idea for Nabokov both as a way of treating predecessors and as a way of writing. And I want to show you that way of writing very early in the book on page 10 now. Let's take a look at that.

Inutile loveliness" is kind of the key word of Nabokov's technique, and he says the novel has as its only purpose to provide aesthetic bliss. So, here is inutile loveliness coming just from seeing the landscape as a stranger.
无用的可爱“是纳博科夫技巧的一个,关键词，他说小说只有一个目的，那就是提供,美学狂喜，所以这里的“无用的可爱“,是把风景当做一个陌生人看待。
-
So, this is the other form that the aesthetic can take. And I think that Nabokov is consistently concerned about these two valences of what the aesthetic can look like.
