我的作品完成了。任凭朱庇特的怒气,任凭刀、火,任凭时光的蚕蚀,都不能毁灭我的作品。时光只能销毁我的肉身,死期愿意来就请它来吧,来终结我这飘摇的寿命。但是我的精萃部分却是不朽的,它将与日月同寿;我的声名也将永不磨灭。罗马的势力征服到哪里,那里我的作品就会被人...
评分看奥维德的《变形记》时发现两个比较有趣的小故事,一个是日神之子法厄同驾车,另一个是伊卡洛斯的坠落。两者都是有关坠落的故事,但结局与其中含义却稍有不同。 日神阿波罗是一个风度翩翩的天神,掌管着太阳的升起落下与诗歌音乐,他与海神之女克吕墨涅生下了法厄同。一次法厄...
评分话说某天,我正在寝室里以脚蹬桌两椅脚悬空的悠闲姿势看着《变形记》里法厄同驾日神车的故事,室友突然破门而入,一幅怒发上冲冠的样子边骂边说,你晓得龟儿的李刚撒,都闹球的浪个凶了,你猜最后法院判他个啥子?有期徒刑三年,监外执行!有没的王法了哦,还他妈不如不判。 ...
评分因为爱,变形成为一种欲望而不是彻头彻尾的恐惧。 爱的羽翼轻灵飘逸,僵直的肢体怎能赶上那以太般的舞步?爱的激流汹涌湍急,肉身的器皿怎能满足那海洋般的吞吐? 世间万物,千姿百态,对于爱的疾病,总有一些选择可以对症。不要眷恋这人类的肉身,两情若...
评分全书共十五卷,囊括了从开天辟地到作者所在的吴大维时期整个宇宙史。 《变形记》将大量罗马人熟悉的神话传说已故事套故事的框架串联起来,其中包括:世界形成,丢卡利翁和皮拉 (大洪水),皮刺摩斯和提斯柏,代达罗斯和伊卡洛斯以及珀耳狄克斯,鲍西丝和费莱蒙,巴图斯,纳西...

"The Metamorphoses of Ovid offers to the modern world such a key to the literary and religious culture of the ancients that it becomes an important event when at last a good poet comes up with a translation into English verse." -- John Crowe Ransom"... a charming and expert English version, which is right in tone for the Metamorphoses." -- Francis Fergusson"This new Ovid, fresh and faithful, is right for our time and should help to restore a great reputation." -- Mark Van DorenThe first and still the best modern verse translation of the Metamorphoses, Humphries' version of Ovid's masterpiece captures its wit, merriment, and sophistication.Everyone will enjoy this first modern translation by an American poet of Ovid's great work, the major treasury of classical mythology, which has perennially stimulated the minds of men. In this lively rendering there are no stock props of the pastoral and no literary landscaping, but real food on the table and sometimes real blood on the ground.Not only is Ovid's Metamorphoses a collection of all the myths of the time of the Roman poet as he knew them, but the book presents at the same time a series of love poems -- about the loves of men, women, and the gods. There are also poems of hate, to give the proper shading to the narrative. And pervading all is the writer's love for this earth, its people, its phenomena.Using ten-beat, unrhymed lines in his translation, Rolfe Humphries shows a definite kinship for Ovid's swift and colloquial language and Humphries' whole poetic manner is in tune with the wit and sophistication of the Roman poet.
翻译得太美了 尤其是最后一章 “It will endure, I trust, beyond Jove's anger, fire and sword, beyond time's hunger...part of me, the better part, immortal
评分下载了Audible听。每天睡前洗漱的时候重温这些老故事,语音比读书更多了一点听故事的感觉。诸神什么的,真是暴躁的一群家伙哎
评分但是读起来还是不乏有一点痛苦的。。Apollo和Daphne故事的写得太棒了。整体打造出了宏大并且富于神性的史诗感。和小学时候看的古希腊神话故大体情节类似,但是具体人物名字似乎不一样,细节也有不同之处。
评分伟大的抒情叙事诗,古典时期的grande folie与elegance的力量很震撼。美与暴力,爱情与仇恨,亲情与背叛,矛盾迸发激情。金句不断,人马战役的描写是全书最好的战争描写。翻译有点迷,英文翻译届喜欢用非常现代的语言,但有点出戏。
