　　诺贝尔颁奖词演讲稿稿与解析

　　What brings about the great shifts in the world of literature? Often it is when someone seizes upon a simple, overlooked form, discounted as art in the higher sense, and makes it mutate.

　　什么会带来文学世界的巨变?通常，是一种简单、被人忽视，从更高意义来说被贬低为技艺的一种形式被某个人所掌握，并令其蜕变的时候。

　　discounted：已打折的

　　mutate：变化，改变，突变

　　anecdote：奇闻轶事

　　plank：木板，支架

　　rhapsodes：游唱诗人，吟诵史诗的人

　　bards：吟游诗人

　　troubadours： 行吟诗人

　　lyre：里尔琴;抒情诗

　　But what Bob Dylan did was not to return to the Greeks or the Proven
