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.
##可讀性超強,非常簡短有力,強力推薦
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##可讀性超強,非常簡短有力,強力推薦
評分##算是一個比較新的本子吧,一個女學者翻譯,又特意請瞭個女演員來念,聽瞭一遍,效果還是不錯的;細節什麼的完全不必計較,畢竟這年頭和以前不同,以前錙銖必較,是各種本子競爭權威性,就說彆人誤人子弟,現在其實也沒誰會但把一個本子奉若圭皋吧;至於Samuel Butler的假說,我是完全無感,與其說是猜作者性彆,不如說是某種性彆特質吧 Odyssey固與Dante的Ulysses貌閤神離,可是相比Penelope,我還是更喜歡Solveig
評分##書籍裝幀和毛邊設計滿分!本來不感興趣的話題,但是就是想要入手一本啊!Introduction部分寫的深入淺齣,翻譯的很不錯。
評分##Emily Wilson 這個譯本閱讀起來完全無障礙,像我這樣對奧德賽故事不熟悉,第一次看的話非常推薦。接下去想讀讀希臘悲劇。
評分##非常棒,吐血推薦。
評分##Excellent translation! I went to her talk at Yale. Such a sharp and attentive scholar. When she read out aloud her own translation--Penelope's dream and the massacre of the suitors, I was enamored by her words. She genuinely loves Homer and her passion for this literature just exuberated in the lecture hall. Energy overflows in her translation!
