具体描述
Emily Wilson is a professor of classical studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
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.
用户评价
为了跟尤利西斯对照阅读买的，封面和毛边装帧都好美。Emily Wilson的翻译轻灵敏捷干脆，不失文学性和韵律感。偶有几处用词太现代有点跳戏，整体流畅通顺。Intro第一页说到epic这个词有误导性，让人觉得史诗一定宏大辉煌，然而从词源看，a epic poem本质上只是一个被讲述的故事。 始终读不进富丽堂皇气势磅礴译本的我终于在Emily Wilson的帮助下读完了奥德赛。
