I think first off, you got to split what people call literature from or fine literature or something like this from like commercial literature.

首先，我认为需要将人所的文学或纯文学与商业文学区分开来。

Do Main Street and The Grapes of Wrath belong in the category of belles-lettres or are both of them sociological studies, the one concentrating on urban experiences, the other on agrarian life?

《大街》和《愤怒的葡萄》到底属于纯文学畴，还是都属于社会学研究，一个关注城市经验，一个关注农村生活？

Our critical judgment in the case of expository books concerns their truth, whereas in criticizing belles-lettres, as the word itself suggests, we consider chiefly their beauty.

我对说籍的批判判断关注的是它的真实，而在批评纯文学时，正如这个词本身所暗示的那样，我主要考虑它的美感。
