还是一篇文章的标题。文章主要是讲述越剧表演流派的发展历史及现状。如果仅仅译成"50-year development of ..."，实在是太过简陋。请教出彩点的译法。谢谢！

Selected
50 Years of Style and Spirit
"Style" and "Spirit" for "风" and "神" respectively. I suppose this is what the author intended. (But we really rarely hear people say in this way.)

| 谢谢。该词偶尔也出现在书面表达中，我手上现有的商务印书馆与外研社的汉英词典中倒也收录了“风神”这个词条，前者释为：elegant demeanour and romantic charm, also “丰神"。后者释为：<书>(1)bearing; demeanour; (2)(of artistic works) style; tone: ~秀异: have an excellent style. |

tradition, heritage
原文我实在看不懂，为什么提风神呢？
根据你的解释，在艺术领域中development可以换成tradition 或heritage，比较好听。
Fifty years of melodious heritage?
A fifty year tradition of melody?

| 谢谢。“风神”这个词大多用于表达艺术作品（比如书画方面）具有“风姿”和“神采”，比如“风神秀异”；也可以形容一个人的举止和气质，比如“风神轩昂”。这里用在越剧表演艺术上，取的一种“通感”的修辞手法，用“风神流转”传达出越剧表演艺术代代相传、永葆风姿（风韵）神采的意思。 |
