"Sing, goddess, the anger of Peleus' son Achilleus / and its devastation." For sixty years, that's how Homer has begun the "Iliad" in English, in Richmond Lattimore's faithful translation--the gold standard for generations of students and general readers.
This long-awaited new edition of Lattimore's "Iliad" is designed to bring the book into the twenty-first century--while leaving the "poem" as firmly rooted in ancient Greece as ever. Lattimore's elegant, fluent verses--with their memorably phrased heroic epithets and remarkable fidelity to the Greek--remain unchanged, but classicist Richard Martin has added a wealth of supplementary materials designed to aid new generations of readers. A new introduction sets the poem in the wider context of Greek life, warfare, society, and poetry, while line-by-line notes at the back of the volume offer explanations of unfamiliar terms, information about the Greek gods and heroes, and literary appreciation. A glossary and maps round out the book.
The result is a volume that actively invites readers into Homer's poem, helping them to understand fully the worlds in which he and his heroes lived--and thus enabling them to marvel, as so many have for centuries, at Hektor and Ajax, Paris and Helen, and the devastating rage of Achilleus.

评分关于译文： 看到网上有人评论陈中梅的译本，称其毁了一部经典。我自己却没有这样的感受。 反倒是读得兴高采烈，畅快淋漓。大概因为我是个神经末端粗钝的马大哈，可能也是当之无愧的对各种译体病都最能忍受的人。 我认为，文学作品和文学作品的组成成分的区别就在于，文学作品诞...
评分 评分根据伊利亚特第二章的描述，宙斯为了赐予因为和阿伽门农争吵而退出战役的阿喀琉斯以更大的光荣，决定让阿开亚人在与特洛伊人的战斗中惨败。于是托梦给阿伽门农，假装许诺他此时正是进攻特洛伊的最好时机。于是乎阿伽门农有了信心，决心“毕其功于一役”，一举击败特洛伊。 ...
