具體描述
Emily Wilson is a professor of classical studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
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.

為瞭跟尤利西斯對照閱讀買的，封麵和毛邊裝幀都好美。Emily Wilson的翻譯輕靈敏捷乾脆，不失文學性和韻律感。偶有幾處用詞太現代有點跳戲，整體流暢通順。Intro第一頁說到epic這個詞有誤導性，讓人覺得史詩一定宏大輝煌，然而從詞源看，a epic poem本質上隻是一個被講述的故事。 始終讀不進富麗堂皇氣勢磅礴譯本的我終於在Emily Wilson的幫助下讀完瞭奧德賽。

評分##下麵是不正經的一段書評： «奧德賽»儼然就是一部好萊塢史詩英雄大片，雅典娜女神編劇、導演兼友情客串，奧德修斯領銜主演，波塞鼕及其他諸神飾演反派，諸求婚者飾演雜魚嘍囉，在雅典娜的主角光環加持下，劇情關鍵時刻女神甚至親自齣馬引導劇情，奧德修斯成瞭偉光正的化身...
