Spanish term or phrase: no vaya a ser que
Доброго времени суток

La comparación que establece Hugo Hernán con los demás intelectuales mexicanos me hace volver a lo detestable de Paz: se trata de un rasgo "plebeyo" (pese a la extracción social altísima de Paz): no pueden vivir sin intentar demostrar que son cultísimos e inteligentísimos. Uno podría coger incluso a dos autores colombianos de mucho menor nivel que Paz, como Estanislao Zuleta o Antonio Caballero, y cada cosa que escriben está impregnada de su asunto, por rutinario o equivocado que éste sea. Es un rasgo aristocrático, presente en autores como Ortega y Borges. Para Paz, y también para Carlos Fuentes y otros, el asunto es un pretexto para mostrar la excelsa calidad de sus personas, no vaya a ser que los tomen por indios ridículos y provincianos.

Спасибо.
