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.
Emily Wilson is a professor of classical studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
①古希腊谁无关英雄还是鼠辈,无一不把尊严看得比生命都重。为了自己和所爱之人的名誉,拼上性命或者打上一晚上的嘴炮是书中的常见戏码。即便在死后,亡魂依旧在为死后没有得到应有的安葬和超度而怨恨,荷马对于哈迪斯领域的规则描写巨细无数。 ②书中人物关于“承诺”的信守和...
评分 评分读过《奥德赛》以后,奥德修斯这个人物给我留下印象最深的地方并不是他的聪明机智,反而是他的残暴。奥德修斯的机智人所共知,史诗中的多处情节都反映出了这个人的“机敏”。不过,当奥德修斯重新踏上伊塔卡的土地之后,他个性中发挥最大影响的因素便不再是机智,而是残暴(或...
评分奥德赛即是“关于奥德修斯的故事”的意思。该书是古希腊荷马史诗中的第二部,与《伊利亚特》一样,也是24章,不过篇幅要稍短,写的是特洛伊战争后希腊英雄奥德修斯的历经10年的伟大返乡历程。全书围绕着这个旅程,从儿子找爹和爹回故乡并惩处纠缠自己老婆的求婚人这两个线索出...
评分要弄清楚奥德修斯为什么选择继续做一个凡人,而不做不死的神明,首先得弄明白在古希腊人那里,神和人之间区别在哪里。简单地说,神与人最根本的不同在于:神是永生不死的,而凡人终有一死。当然,很多神还具备超越凡人的对自然的强大支配能力——比如宙斯掌管雷电、波塞冬支配...
Tears, piety, lies, identity. Tears. Tears. Tears.
评分翻译很平易近人,语言非常现代,读起来语言上不会有很大障碍,但是这样也会在翻译中失去一些该严肃艰涩的地方…?
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.
评分贝多芬让人充满勇气,荷马予人纯洁灵魂。看的过程简直哭瞎了
评分Tears, piety, lies, identity. Tears. Tears. Tears.
