The Aeneid pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Virgil, born in 70 B.C., is best remembered for his masterpiece, The Aeneid. He earned great favor by portraying Augustus as a descendant of the half-god, half-man Aeneas. Although Virgil swore on his deathbed that The Aeneid was incomplete and unworthy, it has been considered one of the greatest works of Western literature for more than two thousand years.

Review
“A new and noble standard bearer . . . There’s a capriciousness to Fagles’s line well suited to this vast story’s ebb and flow.”
—The New York Times Book Review (front page review)
“Fagles’s new version of Virgil’s epic delicately melds the stately rhythms of the original to a contemporary cadence. . . . He illuminates the poem’s Homeric echoes while remaining faithful to Virgil’s distinctive voice.”
—The New Yorker
“Robert Fagles gives the full range of Virgil’s drama, grandeur, and pathos in vigorous, supple modern English. It is fitting that one of the great translators of The Iliad and The Odyssey in our times should also emerge as a surpassing translator of The Aeneid.”
—J. M. Coetzee
Book Description
From the award-winning translator of The Iliad and The Odyssey comes a brilliant new translation of Virgil’s great epic
With his translations of Homer’s classic poems, Robert Fagles gave new life to seminal works of the Western canon and became one of the preeminent translators of our time. His latest achievement completes the magnificent triptych of Western epics. A sweeping story of arms and heroism, The Aeneid follows the adventures of Aeneas, who flees the ashes of Troy to embark upon a tortuous course that brings him to Italy and fulfills his destiny as founder of the Roman people. Retaining all of the gravitas and humanity of the original, this powerful blend of poetry and myth remains as relevant today as when it was first written.

评分论讲故事的能力，维吉尔不如荷马，也不如与他同一时代的奥维德。维吉尔笔下的主人公埃涅阿斯，性格平淡得有如一张白纸。维吉尔多次用“诚实的”、“忠实的”一类的词汇来形容埃涅阿斯，意指埃涅阿斯对神灵敬顺有加，对命运毫不违逆。综观全书，埃涅阿斯在他的冒险旅程经历过许...
评分埃涅阿斯纪，要不是有谷歌输入法的帮助，我还是不能记住这个奇怪的名字。据说这本书讲述的是罗马先祖的历史，我却只记得罗马的开国祖先是关于狼孩什么的。后来读了这部史诗才知道埃涅阿斯比他们还要早很多。西方的史诗，毋宁说史诗（诗经中的某诗）是不怎么好读的，还好翻译的...

评分诗人就是诗人，虽然此书是奉命而作，带有对屋大维的赞颂，但与当时罗马其他赞颂政治家的诗所不同的是，维吉尔在埃涅阿斯纪中充满忧郁的悲观，对命运的信仰。 诗人相信造成痛苦的恰是生命中那无法被自己掌握的命运，他无法改变命运，所能做的只是尽量过好的生活，而其他的只能由...
用户评价
epic！！！
评分正如Fagles在后记里说的，很难意识到埃涅阿斯也只剩下三年时间。
评分Library Genesis上只有Fredrick Ahl的译本
评分当描写一个国家的建立和Turnus的死亡时Virgil用的是同一个动词conderet，那就说明这个国家的建立必定是和血腥与暴力紧密相关的。但，新的秩序是否是更好的秩序？也许并不是这样
评分Aeneas eventually emerged as a deeply tragic character who has to repeatedly surrender his own will to found a Rome for others
