This groundbreaking English version by Robert Fagles is the most important recent translation of Homer's great epic poem. The verse translation has been hailed by scholars as the new standard, providing an Iliad that delights modern sensibility and aesthetic without sacrificing the grandeur and particular genius of Homer's own style and language. The Iliad is one of the two great epics of Homer, and is typically described as one of the greatest war stories of all time, but to say the Iliad is a war story does not begin to describe the emotional sweep of its action and characters: Achilles, Helen, Hector, and other heroes of Greek myth and history in the tenth and final year of the Greek siege of Troy. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Why another Iliad? Just as Homer's work existed most fully in its performance, so the Homeric texts call periodically for new translations. With this in mind, Fagles offers a new verse rendering of the Iliad. Maneuvering between the literal and the literary, he tries with varying degrees of success to suggest the vigor and manner of the original while producing readable poetry in English. Thus, he avoids the anachronizing of Robert Fitzgerald's translation, while being more literal than Richard Lattimore's. Fagles's efforts are accompanied by a long and penetrating introduction by Bernard Knox, coupled with detailed glossary and textual notes.

评分毋庸置疑的是,荷马史诗在流传及“经典化”的过程中,逐渐确立了其作为西方文学之源的地位。历来西方古典学者的阐述著作与观点数目不亚于中国古代学者对《诗经》的注解数量。对于经典文本来说,无论阅读还是评论都不是一件容易的事,你无法绕开那些文本阐释的巨著与名著,更无...
评分(注:按惯例,《伊利亚特》的卷数用大写罗马数字、《奥德赛》的卷数用小写罗马数字标出。) 阿喀琉斯的名字由两个词根拼接而成:“悲痛”(akhos)和“群众”(laos,古希腊语境中,此词主要指参与战斗的兵士)。《伊利亚特》也可以相应分成前后两部分:阿喀琉斯先拒绝参战,...
评分《伊利亚特》,或力量之诗 西蒙娜•薇依Simone Weil著 吴雅凌译 《伊利亚特》的真正主角、真正主题和中心是力量。人类所操纵的力量,人类被制服的力量,在力量面前人的肉身一再缩退。在诗中,人的灵魂由于与力量的关系而不停产生变化,灵魂自以为拥有力量,却被力量所...
