And, of course, we have many, many stories about him,

当然我们也有许多关于他的故事
because he was very well remembered

因为不仅对雅典
as a critical individual in the history,

甚至对于整个希腊来说
not only of Athens, but in Greece.

他都是一个至关重要的历史人物为后人所铭记
The Greeks later put together a list of the seven sages,

后来希腊人列出了七贤的名单
seven wise men of the archaic period in Greek history

也就是古希腊历史上的七位智者
and Solon is one of the seven sages.

梭伦就是其中之一
Indeed, one of the problems about knowing the truth about what Solon did

实际上了解梭伦真实情况的一个问题就是
is that it's pretty clear that lots of stories that had nothing to do with Solon

显然许多故事与梭伦本人无关
were attached to Solon in later ages,

但后来都被附加到了他的身上
because he was the prominent figure

正是由于他是位杰出的人物
that everybody had heard about

人人都听说过他
