註釋
The history of the word maroon, which we associate with desert islands, takes us back to the days of slavery, when the noun maroon was a term in English for a Black person who lived in the mountains and forests of Dutch Guiana (Suriname) and the West Indies, a term that is still used in parts of the Caribbean. These were plantation slaves who had run away to live free in uncultivated parts. The English word is taken from the French word marron, 「runaway Black slave,」 which in turn was an alteration of American Spanish cimarron, meaning 「runaway slave.」 Cimarron is perhaps from cima, 「summit.」 Having come into English (first recorded in 1666), maroon took on a life of its own and came to be used as a verb meaning 「to be lost in the wilds,」 from which our sense 「to put ashore on a deserted island or coast」 evolved.
單詞maroon 與荒島有關聯,其歷史可追溯到奴隸制時代, 當時英語中的maroon 這個詞指的是生活在荷屬圭亞那(蘇裡南)和西印度群島的黑人, 在加勒比的某些地區這個詞仍在使用。這些人本是種植園裡的奴隸,他們逃到未開發的土地上自由自在地生活。英語中的這個詞源於法語中的marron , 意思是「逃亡的黑奴」, 它又是美洲西班牙語cimarron 的變形, 其意為「逃亡的奴隸」。Cinmarron 可能源於 cima ,「頂峰」。 進入英語之後(最早的記載在1666年),maroon 具有了自己的內涵, 而且開始被作為動詞使用,意思是「在荒野中迷失方向」,我們的「將…置於一個荒涼的島上或海岸邊」這個意思就是從這裡發展而來
