Composed at the rosy-fingered dawn of world literature almost three millennia ago, The Odyssey is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty, and power; about marriage and family; about travelers, hospitality, and the yearning for home.
This fresh, authoritative translation captures the beauty of this ancient poem as well as the drama of its narrative. Its characters are unforgettable, none more so than the "complicated" hero himself, a man of many disguises, many tricks, and many moods, who emerges in this version as a more fully rounded human being than ever before.
Written in iambic pentameter verse and a vivid, contemporary idiom, Emily Wilson's Odyssey sings with a voice that echoes Homer's music; matching the number of lines in the Greek original, the poem sails along at Homer's swift, smooth pace.
A fascinating, informative introduction explores the Bronze Age milieu that produced the epic, the poem's major themes, the controversies about its origins, and the unparalleled scope of its impact and influence. Maps drawn especially for this volume, a pronunciation glossary, and extensive notes and summaries of each book make this an Odyssey that will be treasured by a new generation of readers.
##2019年在unsw书店买这本书的原因是装帧深得我心,封皮材质很舒服,字体也选得很妙,带点古意但又不出跳,再加上平装和毛边,堪称出版界楷模装帧。从那起两年多过去了,这本书跟着我从澳大利亚回国,现在又到美国,流浪的距离甚至超过了奥德修斯本人,终于今天读完了。我是提前就知道自己欣赏不来古希腊诗歌的,但就当是文化扫盲了吧。
评分##讲座通篇只谈"I want..."而不提贴合原作的译者还是第一次见到, 和Fagles相比韵味和仔细程度实在差太远了...是奥德赛的第一位女性译者又如何呢,若是在Hades遇到Penelope,两人也只能have a silent cup of tea吧。Fidelity, such a lonely word.
评分##算是一个比较新的本子吧,一个女学者翻译,又特意请了个女演员来念,听了一遍,效果还是不错的;细节什么的完全不必计较,毕竟这年头和以前不同,以前锱铢必较,是各种本子竞争权威性,就说别人误人子弟,现在其实也没谁会但把一个本子奉若圭皋吧;至于Samuel Butler的假说,我是完全无感,与其说是猜作者性别,不如说是某种性别特质吧 Odyssey固与Dante的Ulysses貌合神离,可是相比Penelope,我还是更喜欢Solveig
评分##Emily Wilson 这个译本阅读起来完全无障碍,像我这样对奥德赛故事不熟悉,第一次看的话非常推荐。接下去想读读希腊悲剧。
评分##这版翻译真的太绝了,见微知著,like the cloth of Ponelope weaved unwoven. 很喜欢结尾的dissatisfaction:人类世界总是不断的有跌入地府的游魂。
评分##这个“英雄铩羽而归 人们幸福生活”的结尾好像没有Iliad好。
