1996 年,當我們要為新成立的公司取名字的時候,是先找到了英文名稱 LOCUS,我們在一本拉丁文字典裡,看到 locus 有這樣的意思:「A place where something interesting is happening. 一個有些很有意思的事情正在發生的地方。」
後來,在另一本拉丁文字典裡又看到 locus 有這樣的定義:n.)1. right time, right place(適時適地);2. passage in a book (書裡的段落);3. dwelling. (居所),所以我們就決定了用 LOCUS 當公司的英文名稱。
為了尋找和 LOCUS 相對應的中文名稱,我們花了一段時間尋找,最後決定了「大塊」。「大塊」最早見諸於〈莊子〉:「大塊載我以形,勞我以生,佚我以老,息我以死。」也就是「天地」的意思。但更為人熟知的出處應該是李白的詩:「陽春召我以煙景,大塊假我以文章。」〈春夜宴從弟桃花園序〉。
總之,中文「大塊」所代表的「天地」的意思,和英文 LOCUS 很相配。此外,我們也很喜歡白話文裡「大塊」所讓人能想到的:「大塊吃肉,大碗喝酒;大塊蛋糕,大把鮮花;大塊文章,大好人生。」
這樣,綜合起來說,我們希望「大塊」所傳達的訊息是:「這家公司希望能為讀者提供些很有意思的閱讀——讓自己開闊,也好玩的閱讀。」除了這個基本訊息之外,在大塊成立五年的時候,公司的商標底下也多了三個英文字:Future. Adventure. Culture.
Future 是我們希望和讀者一起邁向未來。
Adventure 是我們彼此用熱情和勇氣來相互激勵。
Culture 是我們一起探索文化的各種面向和層次。
以上就是大塊的品牌故事。
我會做任何事!
