Ovid's Metamorphoses gains its ideal twenty-first-century herald in Stanley Lombardo's bracing translation of a wellspring of Western art and literature that is too often treated, even by poets, as a mere vehicle for the scores of myths it recasts and transmits rather than as a unified work of art with epic-scale ambitions of its own. Such misconceptions are unlikely to survive a reading of Lombardo's rendering, which vividly mirrors the brutality, sadness, comedy, irony, tenderness, and eeriness of Ovid's vast world as well as the poem’s effortless pacing. Under Lombardo's spell, neither Argus nor anyone else need fear nodding off.
The translation is accompanied by an exhilarating Introduction by W. R. Johnson that unweaves and reweaves many of the poem’s most important themes while showing how the poet achieves some of his most brilliant effects.
An analytical table of contents, a catalog of transformations, and a glossary are also included.

评分《变形记》是一本很生动的讲述罗马神话英雄传说的书，相较于《伊利亚特》，它看起来没有那么吃力。我觉得可能是题材的原因。《伊利亚特》不注重男女情爱的描写，战争和血腥场面比较多，而且英雄人物往往扎堆出场，还要各自介绍家族财产世系，从阅读这方面来讲，阻断了故事的连...
