具體描述
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.

##"Tell me about a complicated man" 4/13/20-6/14/20 Bye Freshman Year!
評分##這次讀瞭幾章之後。後麵在audible上聽的有聲書，贊美有聲書！讀的真好。重讀還是之前的感覺，前半部分是奇幻冒險後半部分是英雄復仇劇，劇情很吸引人????
評分##Like it better than illiad
評分##這個“英雄鎩羽而歸 人們幸福生活”的結尾好像沒有Iliad好。
