The Will
On November 27, 1895, Alfred Nobel signed his last will in Paris. When it was opened and read after his death, the will caused a lot of controversy both in Sweden and internationally, as Nobel had left much of his wealth for the establishment of a prize! His family opposed the establishment of the Nobel Prize, and the prize awarders he named refused to do what he had requested in his will. It was five years before the first Nobel Prize could be awarded in 1901.

在此，摘錄諾貝爾在遺囑裏對諾貝爾文學獎和諾貝爾和平獎的定義（瑞典語和英語）：
en del den som inom litteraturen har producerat det utmärktaste i idealisk rigtning; och en del åt den som har verkat mest eller best för folkens förbrödrande och afskaffande eller minskning af stående armeer samt bildande och spridande af fredskongresser.
one part to the person who shall have produced in the field of literature the most outstanding work in an ideal direction; and one part to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.
在此，我以敬重的心情，作出慎重的翻譯嚐試。諾貝爾的遺囑的原意，以其原文為準。
一部分（利息所得）贈於個人，其在文學領域寫出了最傑出的、遵循一個理想的方向的作品；一部分（利息所得）贈於個人，其為國與國之間的手足般友愛之情，為廢除或裁減常備軍隊，為組織並促進和平會議作出了最多的、或最好的工作。
我認為，毫無疑問，諾貝爾是一位理想主義者。
