具体描述
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.
用户评价
##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##"Tell me about a complicated man" 4/13/20-6/14/20 Bye Freshman Year!
评分##书籍装帧和毛边设计满分！本来不感兴趣的话题，但是就是想要入手一本啊！Introduction部分写的深入浅出，翻译的很不错。

评分##这版翻译真的太绝了，见微知著，like the cloth of Ponelope weaved unwoven. 很喜欢结尾的dissatisfaction：人类世界总是不断的有跌入地府的游魂。
评分##2019年在unsw书店买这本书的原因是装帧深得我心，封皮材质很舒服，字体也选得很妙，带点古意但又不出跳，再加上平装和毛边，堪称出版界楷模装帧。从那起两年多过去了，这本书跟着我从澳大利亚回国，现在又到美国，流浪的距离甚至超过了奥德修斯本人，终于今天读完了。我是提前就知道自己欣赏不来古希腊诗歌的，但就当是文化扫盲了吧。

评分##(Lattimore and Fagles are more literal, and Fagles has excellent notes, but Fitzgerald is a far better poet, and his Odyssey is magical.) Then I have to try EW's translation...
评分##第一次完完整整地读完奥德赛——关于家，关于旅程，关于身份，关于忠诚和永恒。非常好读的译本，质朴顺畅，没有传统印象中辉煌磅礴的史诗那种intimidating的感觉。Intro很好，深入浅出。
