　　A new series of eye-opening portraits explores the age-old disparity in food consumption between the rich and poor as it holds fast throughout history.

　　Power Hungry is a collaboration between photographer Henry Hargreaves and food stylist Cailin Levin, and juxtaposes meals enjoyed by the top one per cent under 'authoritarian regimes throughout history' with the meager daily dishes consumed by the lower classes.

　　這新一組讓人眼界大開的照片展示的是歷史變遷中，窮人和富人之間長時間存在的食物分配差距。

　　“權(quán)利饑餓”是攝影師亨利·哈格里夫和食物造型師卡琳·萊溫的一次合作，照片展示的是歷史長河中，獨(dú)裁體制下上層階級享用的每一餐和下層階級貧乏的每一餐的并列對比。

　　“We want people to literally and figuratively sit down and look across a table to see the glaring disparities between the 'haves and have-nots',”Mr Hargreaves states, having photographed staged table-tops from Ancient Egypt and Rome to current-day meals eaten in North Korea, Syria and the U.S.

　　“我們希望人們真正或象征性地坐下來，看看餐桌上“窮人和富人”之間截然兩極的分配不均，”哈格里夫先生說道，他拍攝了在朝鮮、敘利亞和美國從古埃及古羅馬時期，直到今天餐桌上的變化。

　　富貴和貧窮：(右圖)朝鮮獨(dú)裁者金正恩獲取了數(shù)不清的食物、點(diǎn)心和大孔奶酪——據(jù)說是他最喜歡的食物，然而(左圖)超過四分之一的朝鮮孩子因?yàn)槭澄锒倘被忌狭寺誀I養(yǎng)不良。

　　Modern America

　　Modern America: Here in the U.S., while the 'food gap' may be less pronounced, one in six of the population live beneath the poverty line according to the latest Census data. Pictured (right) fine food for the wealthy and (left) cheap, unhealthy fare for the poorer population.

　　現(xiàn)代美國：在美國，“食物短缺”也許并沒得到足夠宣示，但是根據(jù)最新的戶口普查資料顯示，六分之一的人口在貧困線以下掙扎。(右圖)是富人們豐盛的食物，而(左圖)是分給窮人廉價的、不健康的食物。

　　Syria

　　Syria: President Bashar al-Assad and his wife are said to feast on a combination of Western and Middle Eastern delicacies (right), while Assad is 'deliberately starving thousands of people to death,' (left) says photographer Henry Hargreaves.

　　敘利亞：(右圖)巴沙爾·阿薩德總統(tǒng)和他的妻子據(jù)說盡情享受著中東和西方風(fēng)味結(jié)合的山珍海味，然而巴沙爾“故意看著上千人餓死”(左圖)，攝影師亨利·哈格里夫說道。

　　18th Century France

　　Let them eat cake: In 18th Century France, before the revolution, an unskilled laborer in 1789 could expect to spend 97per cent of his wages on bread, due to harvest shortages (left). Meanwhile, monarchs dined on delicacies including sugared fruit, champagne and pastries (right).

　　來吃蛋糕吧：在18世紀(jì)的法蘭西，還未改革的1789年，因?yàn)槭粘啥倘?，一名不熟練工人要?7%的工資在吃的上(右圖)。與此同時，君主們則享受著糖分充足的水果，香檳和甜點(diǎn)的美味佳肴(左圖)。

　　Ancient Roma

　　Glutton: As for the ancient Romans, the top one per cent of this historical period are still renowned for their gloriously over-indulgent feasts (right). The everyday Roman man, on the other hand, would have been more accustomed to a diet mostly of millet (left).

　　貪吃的人：在古羅馬，這一時期的上層階級仍以他們驕奢糜爛的盛宴所馳名(右圖)。而另一方面，普通的羅馬人則已經(jīng)習(xí)慣于以雜谷為食(左圖)。

　　Early civilisation

　　Early civilisation: Ancient Egyptian rulers and monarchs would also have enjoyed a much richer variety of foods (right), whereas poor members of society had to make do with simple bread and vegetables (left).

　　早期文明時期：古埃及的統(tǒng)治者們和君主們也享受著五花八門的大餐(右圖)，然而社會上的窮人只能吃簡單的面包和蔬菜(左圖)。

　　10條不可不知的西方餐桌禮儀

　　1.When helping a woman pull her chair to the table, hold it and guide it. Don't shove it againstthe back of her legs.

　　2.If you're seated at a table with eight or fewer guests, wait for everyone to be served and forthe hostess to begin eating before you dig in. At a long banquet table, it's OK to start whenseveral people are seated and served.

　　1.為女士拉椅子的時候，要把椅子抓住了，留個角度，讓女士好走過去。別讓椅子腿碰到女士的腿。

　　2.如果就餐人數(shù)少于等于八人，那就等所有人都坐好了，女主人開始用餐了，再開動。如果是長餐桌，那么只要有幾個人入座進(jìn)食了，你也就可以開始吃了。

　　3.All things not having to do with food should remain off the table: keys, clutch bags, cigarettepacks, sunglasses, BlackBerrys.

　　3.一切和食物無關(guān)的東西都不應(yīng)該出現(xiàn)在餐桌上，包括：鑰匙、手袋、煙盒、墨鏡還有手機(jī)。

　　4.Don't snap your napkin open or unfurl it showily like it's an Olympic flag.

　　4.不要把餐巾展開，看起來像是在展示奧林匹克會旗一樣。

　　5.If you prefer not to have wine while dining out, don't turn your glass upside down, and don'tmake a big deal of saying you don't drink. Simply place your fingertips on the rim of the glassand say "Not today, thanks."

　　5.如果在用餐時你不想飲酒，不要把酒杯倒過來放，也不要很在意地宣布你不喝酒。只要輕輕地把指尖放在酒杯邊緣，說一句"今天不喝，謝謝。"

　　6.If you're eating and want to take a sip, dab your mouth with your napkin to avoid stainingthe rim of the glass.

　　6.如果你在吃東西的時候，想要啜一口飲料的話，那就先拿餐巾把嘴擦干凈了，以免在杯子邊緣留下殘跡。

　　7.Grabbing a bowl of salad or a saltshaker as it's being passed to someone who asked for it isthe equivalent of cutting in line: greedy and rude.

　　7.把原本要遞給別人的沙拉碗或者鹽瓶從半道截下來，這基本上就等于在說：你是個既貪婪又粗魯?shù)娜恕?/p>

　　8.On the subject of passing: Dishes go counterclockwise, but if someone to your left asks forsomething, you can hand it directly to him.

　　8.餐桌上要傳遞東西的話，規(guī)則一般是逆時針傳遞。不過，如果坐在你左手邊的人想要什么東西時，你也可以直接遞給他。

　　9.When you excuse yourself to go to the restroom, just say "Please excuse me."

　　9.想去洗手間的時候，只要說"失陪一下"就可以了。

　　10.When out with friends or family - even at a fancy restaurant - it's OK to ask for yourleftovers to be wrapped. But don't do it at a business lunch or dinner.

　　10.和朋友家人一起外出用餐，即使是到很高級的餐館，也可以要求把吃剩下的食物打包帶走。不過，如果是在商務(wù)宴會上，就不要這么做了。
