Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother.
译文:这个时候,无声无息地,在内心最深处,出现了他妈妈的身影。
1. 可否像平常一样,把状语放在句末:
Then,he pictured his mother out of nowhere and from the deepest depths of his soul.
2. Out of nowhere明明是“不知从什么地方来”,地址状语;编者如何想到译为非地址状语“无声无息地”?而且out of nowhere和from the deepest depths of his soul用and连接,是否还有一层“递进关系”呢?
感觉原句结构非常松散,不好理解,请老师解说给大家,很感谢!

1. 可否像平常一样,把状语放在句末:

【答】可以。但,地址状语放在句首也非常正常,这不是问题。
2. Out of nowhere明明是“不知从什么地方来”,地址状语;编者如何想到译为非地址状语“无声无息地”?而且out of nowhere和from the deepest depths of his soul用and连接,是否还有一层“递进关系”呢?
【答】正如网友所言:Out of nowhere 明明是“不知从什么地方来”,地址状语。那要看这个短语跟什么动词连用了。依据不同语境,它可以引申为:“不知打什么地方来;忽然冒出来;莫名其妙的出现;不知如何的”。
