[求譯] 到底是從哪到哪 where用法

[chevalierxd (獨孤求噓-風青羊)]

In 1349 it resumed in Paris, spread to Picardy, Flanders, and the Low
Countries, and from England to Scotland and Ireland as well as to Norway,
where a ghost ship with a cargo of wool and a dead crew drifted offshore
until it ran aground near Bergen. From there the plague passed into Sweden,
Denmark, Prussia, Iceland, and as far as Greenland. Leaving a strange pocket
of immunity in Bohemia and Russia unattacked until 1351, it had passed from
most of Europe by the mid-1350s.Although the mortality rate was erratic,
ranging from one-fifth in some places to nine-tenths or almost total
elimination in others, the overall estimate of modern demographers has
settled—for the area extending from India to Iceland—around the same figure
expressed in Froissart’s casual words: “A third of the world dies.”
His estimate, the common one at the time, was not an inspired guess but a
borrowing of St. John’s figure for mortality from the plague in Revelation,
the favorite guide to human affairs of the Middle Ages.

一開始是從巴黎 到低地國 再到 愛爾蘭和挪威

問題來了 where說的是?

我的想法是一艘載有羊毛貨物和一個死亡船員的幽靈船離岸漂流 一直飄到接近bergen

bergen可能是挪威的一個港口城市之類的?

而後面的from there則是指從挪威又開始傳?

然後後面我有個問題是後面有提到死亡率是很詭異的

從三分之一到90% 甚至是100%

問題是後面所謂的現代人口統計學家對於整體死亡率估計已經有共識

後面的地區是指從印度到冰島嗎?印度整篇文章只有這裡出現過 突然冒出來...

EXTENDING FROM是不是說印度是最先發源地呢?

另外他特別把settled for區別開來是強調她不是指勉強接受這個意思嗎?

這部份讓我看得有點亂@@

感謝大家回答!

推 waggy:這是一篇文中的其中一段 所以你覺得印度突然出現
→ waggy:印度是染疫的最南端 照原本全文並非發疫病發源地
→ waggy:好比台中是起源地 傳到高雄 然後台東 花蓮 宜蘭 台北
→ waggy:寫文章的人就會寫說從高雄到台北總共死了多少人
→ waggy:但並不表示是源自高雄
→ waggy:而本文最北端是冰島 所以就說從印度到冰島
→ chevalierxd:非常感謝!話說我發現原來我一直看錯 是五分之一
