Great translation that illuminates slave culture and women’s issues ( ) https://fromtheheartofeurope.eu/the-odyssey-by-homer-tr-emily-wilson/ I got myself this as a late Christmas present, having read positive reviews and also having slogged through a couple of other translations. I was familiar with the high points of The Odyssey, which is fairly approachable, if oddly structured. But this is definitely worth getting. I really appreciated Wilson’s paring down of the language to take only as much space as the original words – most other English translators seem to have been rather verbose (cf Lawrence and Chapman above, three centuries apart). As you would expect, given where Wilson is coming from, she boosts the voices of the women characters more than other translators do – and let’s bear in mind that Odysseus has love affairs with Calypso and Circe, and less explicitly with Nausicaa, while poor old Penelope has to stay faithful to him despite his years of absence. I also felt I got a much better sense of Telemachus here. The book comes with an 80-page introduction and another 12 pages of preliminary notes, and it’s really worth it – a very good survey of both the society which the poem depicts, and the efforts that others have made to interpret the text for later times and places. And crucially the language is crystal clear. I have been told that this is now the standard translation used to teach The Odyssey, and I can see why. I'm no Greek scholar but I can read English, and know when a writing transfixes me. It's been about 45 years since I read Richmond Lattimore's translation of the Odyssey, and while that was comprehensible it never captivated my like this. Suddenly the energy of Homer (whoever he/they was/were) from the beautifully presented papyrusesque pages, and I knew at last why Homer is important. I'm not qualified to say anytghing more than "thank you, Emily Wilson, for your translation, and oh the gods, your Introduction is inspiratioinal in its own right." La Odisea es el relato de las aventuras de Odiseo durante su viaje de regreso a Ítaca, después de conquistar Troya. Odiseo es el modelo del héroe errante que se enfrenta a la adversidad y, con fuerza, astucia y alguna ayuda de los dioses, supera las duras pruebas y situaciones que le separan tanto de sus seres queridos, su fiel esposa Penélope y su hijo Telémaco, como de su patria. Texto adaptado a lectura fácil. I finally read the Odyssey after sitting in my shelf for a long time. This version is translated by Roger Fagles. Description of the book: "So begins Robert Fagles' magnificent translation of the Odyssey. If the Iliad is the world's greatest war epic, then the Odyssey is literature's grandest evocation of everyman's journey though life. Odysseus' reliance on his wit and wiliness for survival in his encounters with divine and natural forces, during his ten-year voyage home to Ithaca after the Trojan War, is at once a timeless human story and an individual test of moral endurance." I have seen many movies of the Odyssey and I felt the book and the movies were very close. Quite and adventure and a book worth a re-read. I recommend readers add it to their classic reads.
In this interview, we discuss how her [Wilson's] identity as a woman—and a cis-gendered feminist—informs her translation work, how her Odyssey translation honors both ancient traditions and contemporary reading practices, and what Homer meant when he called Dawn, repeatedly, “rosy-fingered.” Pertence a SériePertence à Série da EditoraAustral (70) — 54 mais detebe (20779) L'esparver llegir (43) Everyman's Library (454) The Folio Society ((11) 1948) Harvard Classics (22) Harvill (16) Limited Editions Club (S:2.03) Penguin Classics (L001) Penguin Clothbound Classics (2009) Perpetua reeks (71) Reader's Enrichment Series (RE 327) A tot vent (562) The World's Classics (36) Está contido emGreat Books Of The Western World - 54 Volume Set, Incl. 10 Vols of Great Ideas Program & 10 Volumes Gateway To Great Books por Robert Maynard Hutchins (indirecta) GREAT BOOKS OF THE WESTERN WORLD--54 Volumes 27 volumes 1961-1987 GREAT IDEAS TODAY (Yearbooks) 10 volumes GATEWAY TO THE GREAT BOOKS 10 volumes GREAT IDEAS PROGRAM.
