Maker defend the droid that has wandered away from its masters on the desert world of Tatooine. Of the many dangers that travel the dunes and crags of the arid world, few can send a droid's behavioral matrix circuitry into a tizzy like the Jawas.
制造者保佑在沙漠星球塔图因从主人身边走失的机器人。在这个不毛之地的沙丘与峭壁中危机四伏,但很少有哪种危机能像贾瓦人那样,让机器人的行为矩阵线路陷入癫狂。
They are hardly monstrous, appearing as meter-tall humanoids completely hidden behind rough, hand-woven robes. Their faces are concealed within the dark folds of a cowl, from which peer their sickly glowing yellow eyes.
他们看上去像一米高的人形生物,完全藏在粗糙、手织的长袍里,基本无害。他们的脸藏在一块蒙头巾的黑色面罩里,只露出两只病怏怏的亮黄色眼睛。
The Jawas are a scavenger species. They comb the deserts of Tatooine in search of discarded scrap and wayward mechanicals. Using their cobbled-together weaponry, they can incapacitate droids and drag them to their treaded fortress-homes, immense sand-scarred vehicles known as sandcrawlers.
贾瓦人是一个拾荒者种族。他们在塔图因的沙漠里寻找被丢弃的废品和误入歧途的机器。利用拼凑起来的武器,贾瓦人能瘫痪机器人,把他们拖进自己的履带式堡垒住处——能在沙漠上留下轨迹的巨型交通工具沙漠履带车。
Jawas form an important link in the circle of trade that connects the distant Tatooine communities. They sell their hastily refurbished junk to moisture farmers who are hard-pressed to find a better selection elsewhere. For their shoddy work and vagabond ways, they have a well-earned reputation as hucksters out to hoodwink the outlander colonists on Tatooine.
在连接塔图因各个偏远社区的贸易圈中,贾瓦人形成了一个重要的环节。他们把匆忙翻新的垃圾卖给湿气农场主,这些农场主很难去别处寻找更好的选择。由于以次充好、四处漂泊,贾瓦人作为欺骗塔图因外来殖民者的小贩而臭名远扬。
衍生宇宙
Few have ever seen the ugliness that lies beneath a Jawa mask. Jawa faces are obscured by a cloud of insects that gather in the recesses of their hoods, attracted by their foul odors. Their particular stench is a combination of poor hygiene and a mysterious solution into which Jawas dip their clothes to retain moisture. To Jawas, the odor is packed with information about each other, such as clan lineage, health, emotional state, even the last meal eaten.
几乎没人见过贾瓦人面具后面的丑陋面孔。由于在他们的兜帽凹陷处总是聚集着一群虫子,因此贾瓦人的脸根本看不清,而这些虫子是被他们恶心的气味吸引过来的。他们的特殊臭味源自两个原因的结合——一是糟糕的卫生状况,二是一种神秘的溶液,贾瓦人把他们的衣服浸在里面保持湿润。对贾瓦人来说,气味包含彼此的信息,比如氏族血统、健康状况、情绪状态,甚至上一顿吃了什么。
Jawas have evolved several important survival traits, such as exceptional night vision, a strong immune system, and an efficient digestive system that draws all the needed nutrients from the Jawa staple diet of hubba gourd.
贾瓦人在进化中得到了几个重要的生存特性,比如杰出的夜视能力、强大的免疫系统和高效的消化系统。其消化系统从贾瓦人的主食胡巴瓜中汲取所有需要的营养。
Jawas have long been scavengers, as the Dune Sea provides a bounty of refuse. It is littered with derelict spacecraft wreckage from millennia of star travel. The Jawas have built homes and tools from these ancient scraps, and travel the dunes in sandcrawlers, cast-off mobile smelters from failed outlander mining attempts.
由于沙丘之海提供了大量垃圾,因此贾瓦人一直是拾荒者。那里到处都是在上千年星际旅行中被遗弃的太空船残骸。贾瓦人用这些古老的废料建造家园和工具,利用沙漠履带车和被外来采矿失败者丢弃的移动冶炼厂巡游沙丘。
Jawas live in familial clans, each with distinct territories for living and scavenging. While half the clan is crammed into the warren-like compartments of a sandcrawler, scouring the deserts for usable salvage, the other half resides within a thick-walled fortress. These desert homes were built to protect the Jawas from Sand People or roaming krayt dragons.
贾瓦人生活在一个个家庭氏族中,每个氏族都有各自的生活与拾荒领地。氏族的一半人挤进拥挤的沙漠履带车车厢,在沙漠中搜索可用的财物,而另一半人就呆在厚壁堡垒中。这些沙漠住宅可以保护贾瓦人免受沙民或游荡的克雷特龙的侵扰。
A chief leads each clan. Jawa leadership is usually conferred upon males -- females are viewed upon as second-class citizens at best, property at worst. The few females afforded respect in Jawa culture are the shamans. A Jawa becomes a shaman when she is overcome by an illness accompanied by a hallucinatory vision. Depending on the outcome of the vision, and indeed if the Jawa survives the illness, she is usually decreed a shaman, and her words are given the respect that such wisdom dictates.
每个氏族由一名酋长领导。贾瓦人的领导权常常被授予男性——女性最多被视为二等公民,最惨被视为财产。在贾瓦人的文化中,极少数受尊敬的女性是巫师。一个女性贾瓦人在被一场伴有幻像的疾病征服后,就成了巫师。如果这个贾瓦人的确幸免于这场疾病,那么根据幻像的最后结果,她通常就被认定为巫师,她的话语受到尊重,被看作智者的指示。
Once a year, the scattered Jawa clans gather for the great swap meet. Here, numerous sandcrawlers converge and the Jawas meet to exchange salvage. Marriages are arranged and Jawa children and females are exchanged among clans.
分散的贾瓦人氏族会在每年一次的大型交易会上聚集到一起。那时,众多的沙漠履带车汇集一地,贾瓦人当面易货。他们还在这时安排婚姻,在氏族间交换孩子和妇女。
幕后
The Jawas seen in A New Hope were played by both little people and children. The Jawa chief was played by the late Jack Purvis, who had numerous roles in the classic trilogy. He manipulated the giant praying mantis puppet barely glimpsed in the Mos Eisley Cantina (an alien later revealed to be Kitik Keed'kak), and played Ugloste, the Chief Ugnaught in The Empire Strikes Back. For Return of the Jedi, Purvis played the Ewok warrior Teebo.
在《新的希望》中出现的贾瓦人是由袖珍人和孩童扮演。贾瓦人酋长由已故的杰克·珀维斯扮演,他在经典三部曲中出演了众多角色。他在莫斯艾斯利小酒馆中操纵一个一晃而过的巨大螳螂木偶(一个后来被称为基蒂克·基德卡克的异族人),在《帝国反击战》里扮演乌格瑙特人的首领乌格洛斯特。在《绝地归来》里,珀维斯扮演伊沃克族战士蒂博。
For the Star Wars: Special Edition, Industrial Light & Magic crafted computer-generated Jawas to ride a CG ronto into the revamped port city of Mos Eisley.
工业光魔为《星球大战:特别版》制作了计算机生成的贾瓦人,让他们骑着一头计算机生成的龙驼进入修改后的港口城市莫斯艾斯利。
According to Stephen Sansweet's book, Star Wars: From Concept to Screen to Collectible, the Jawas were the centerpiece in one of the strangest copyright infringement cases involving Star Wars. In 1978, small hooded creatures with glowing eyes began accompanying rocker Neil Young on stage during a concert tour, in a tour film, and on the cover of the album Rust Never Sleeps. The case was settled out of court. As a nod to the odd incident, a UK Star Wars comics story -- having nothing to do with Jawas, and starring C-3PO and R2-D2 -- also bore the title "Rust Never Sleeps" shortly thereafter. It was eventually reprinted as an issue of Classic Star Wars: Devil-Worlds by Dark Horse Comics.
根据斯蒂芬·圣斯威特的书《星球大战:从构思到银幕到收藏》,在一次涉及《星球大战》的奇怪侵权案中,贾瓦人是核心要素。1978年,一种眼睛发光戴兜帽的小生物开始出现在摇滚歌星尼尔·扬的巡回演出舞台上、巡回短片中和专辑《锈永未眠》的封面上。此案在庭外和解。作为向这件怪事的致敬,一则英国《星球大战》漫画故事——与贾瓦人无关,主角是C-3PO和R2-D2——不久以后也以《锈永未眠》命名。这个故事最终作为一集被重印进黑马漫画的《经典星球大战:恶魔世界》里。 |
