In the tradition of Robert Fagles's translation of the Iliad and the Odyssey, Viking presents a stunning translation of Lady Murasaki's exquisite portrait of courtly life in medieval Japan. Written in the eleventh century, The Tale of Genji is widely celebrated as the world's first novel, but as Donald Keene has observed, it is also "one of its greatest." Genji the Shining Prince, the son of an emperor, is a passionate character whose tempestuous nature, family circumstances, love affairs, alliances, and shifting political fortunes form the core of this magnificent epic. Throughout, The Tale of Genji offers a lively and well-rounded glimpse of golden age Japan with a cast of characters as richly conceived and nuanced as those of Proust. Royall Tyler's superb translation, detailed and poetic, is scrupulously true to the Japanese original but appeals immediately to the modern reader as well. Tyler includes detailed notes, glossaries, character lists, and chronologies to help the reader navigate the multigenerational narrative and its references. Magnificently packaged in a two-volume set with a slipcase, this is a literary event comparable to Seamus Heaney's bestselling translation of Beowulf. It will spark interest in this masterpiece of world literature and serve as the standard edition for many years to come.

Translated by Royall Tyler.

读后感

从来没有读过这样的书，读的时候也没有看任何介绍，只是尝试着看下去，谁知也停不下来。 从文字来看，形容角色俊丽的文字和来回书信的词句虽然可玩可赏，但总归单薄。故事涉及的方方面面也远远不及红楼梦丰满有深意。人物性格极为单一，仿佛无论王公大臣侍女平面看到面目俊俏的...  

一 有一种公认的说法，《源氏物语》是日本的《红楼梦》。 我是要为《红楼梦》叫屈的。大抵就像是北乔峰见到南慕容之后的那种不齿——将《源氏物语》与《红楼梦》相比拟，简直就是拉低《红楼梦》的格调。没错，《源氏物语》比红楼梦早了七百年，《源氏物语》对贵族生活的优雅细...  

六 条：(忽然跪下，紧紧抱住站立着的若林光的膝头，用面颊在上面蹭擦着)求求您，不要对我这样冷酷无情。 　　 　　若林光：你这样低三下气，我还是头一次看到哩。(旁白)真奇怪啊。好像不是人在抱着我。 而且，腿脚也动不了了。 　　 　　六 条：从一开始我就没有矜持过...

摘自《南方周末》 作者：李 雾 本人自认对日本文学多少知道一点。从川端康成的《古都》、《雪国》到公部安房的《沙女》，从三岛由纪夫的《金阁寺》、《潮骚》到村上春树《挪威的森林》，也算读过几部日本小说。不过，也要到不久前读了《纽约时报》上的一篇游记之后，才...  

趁1000年周年的东风，国内也跟着狠出了几套各种各样的源氏物语。我觉得非常遗憾，这又是一本不推荐大家买的书。上一本是http://www.douban.com/review/1563234/（不过这本是田边圣子女士的改写，其实不可通比，在此道歉） 可喜可贺的是这次作者终于是紫式...
