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.

##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##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##Like it better than illiad
评分##"Tell me about a complicated man" 4/13/20-6/14/20 Bye Freshman Year!
评分##特勒马科斯临行之际，斯巴达王表示若他愿意自己可以一道同行，御马护送他踏遍希腊的每个角落，所到之处礼物满载……这一遍特别留心读特勒马科斯的部分，经常想在《奥德赛》本卷中注定无法grown up的小王子，如果真能和斯巴达王结伴游历天下会怎样？有时看着他会觉得看到一个“被夭折”的孩子。还有另一挂心处，是奥德修斯和父亲相认，他说孩提时代父亲曾在果园里把每棵果树指给他看，突然很想知道当时是什么光景？卷十八，奥德修斯伪装之下的真心：Of all the creatures that live and breathe and creep on earth, we humans are weakest. 很流畅好读的译本，简介和末尾的注释也比较详尽。
评分##Emily Wilson 这个译本阅读起来完全无障碍，像我这样对奥德赛故事不熟悉，第一次看的话非常推荐。接下去想读读希腊悲剧。
评分##这个“英雄铩羽而归 人们幸福生活”的结尾好像没有Iliad好。
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##非常棒，吐血推荐。
