a somewhat staid institution
جوانسازی کنم
from its ivory tower
برج عاج نشینیش پایین بیارم
the right thing for me to do
درستترین کار بود
by how an image can --
بودم که یک تصویر --
تا چه حد میتونه
that we see every single day.
روزانه میبینیم عبور کنه.
a social trend or a complex event
یا یک اتفاق پیچیده رو متبلور کنه
wouldn't be able to do --
چنین قدرتی ندارن --
and turn it into a cartoon.
و اون در قالب یک کاریکاتور بیاره.
drawn by Rea Irvin in 1925 --
توسط ری ایروین کشیده شده نگاه کردم --
through his monocle,
به یک پروانه نگاه میکنه،
Eustace Tilley
as the magazine had become known
مجله به خاطر تحقیقات دقیق و عمیق
and long reports,
had gotten lost along the way,
مسیر گم شده بود،
was seen as a haughty dandy,
رو به عنوان یک فرد خوشتیپ متکبر میشناسن
رو کشید،
طنز کشید،
of the roaring twenties.
دوران پر سر و صدای دههی بیست بودن.
that really captured the zeitgeist
حقیقت روح زمانهی
not just how people dressed
که مردم چطور لباس میپوشیدهن،
خندهشون میشده،
to be alive in the '30s.
to be in the subway,
are approved by the editor,
رو تایید کنه،
not telling you what to think.
چطور باید فکر کنین.
have to complete the picture.
باید تصویر رو کامل کنین.
on the left by Anita Kunz,
که کار آنیتا کونزه،
پیدا کنید رو بازی کنین.
موضوع رو ثبت میکنن --
that are in your head.
just have to show people,
رو به مردم نشون بدن
with what we were going through,
اتفاقی که به سرمون اومده برخورد کنم،
could capture this moment,
این لحظه رو نشون بده،
cartoonist Art Spiegelman,
مجله آرت اسپیگلمنه
that I was going to propose that,
پیشنهادی بدم،
going to do a black cover,
طرح روی جلد رو مشکی بزنی،
the silhouette of the Twin Towers,
رو روش بندازی،
that I learned in the process --
این فرآیند بهش رسیدم --
that say the most
که گویاترین هستن
جلد کتاب حرف بزنه.
that we published by Bob Staake
و ما بعد این تصویر رو
چاپ کردیم،
از پیش چیزی تعیین کنیم،
experience the emotions that we all feel
همونطوری که ما حس میکنیم تجربه کنه
could publish was this,
منتشر کنیم این بود،
on the week that everybody voted.
رفت روی دکهی روزنامهها.
somebody would feel this --
کسی دست خواهد داد --
was announced.
that was sent by Bob Staake again,
برامون فرستاد،
what's going to come next,
چه اتفاقی قراره بیفته،
know how to move forward,
چطور باید به جلو حرکت کنیم،
after Donald Trump's election
دونالد ترامپ منتشر کردیم،
come to life week after week,
در هفته بودهم،
which one is my favorite,
بیشتر دوست دارم،
یکی رو انتخاب کنم،
is how different every image is,
میکنم اینه که هرکدوم از این تصاویر
and the diversity
Eustace Vladimirovich Tilley.
یوستس ولادیمیرویچ تیلی.
than a flabbergasted Donald Trump
دونالد ترامپ مبهوت و شگفتزده
how to control the butterfly effect,
وقوع اثر پروانهای رو بگیره
that was drawn by Rae Irvin in 1925
در سال ۱۹۲۵ کشیده شده
about this moment
به وجد میاره
is essential to our democracy.
ما حیاتی هستن.
the sublime to the ridiculous
مضامین والا گرفته تا مضحک
into the cultural dialogue.
به گفتمان فرهنگی.
at the center of that culture,
در مرکز اون فرهنگ قرار میده
where I think they should be.
فکر میکنم باید باشن.
right now is a good cartoon.
بهش احتیاج داریم یک کاریکاتور خوبه.
