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.

评分古扶桑国有天皇之子赐姓源氏者,容貌昳丽,风采照人,号“光华公子”。其母昔为天皇更衣,备极恩宠,及亡,上哀甚,视公子若珍宝,不忍小草之孤零,哪堪长风之侵扰。待公子渐长,使出为臣籍,结亲大臣,欲以己之力,厚公子之势,报弘徽之恨,成关白之业。 公子性风流,好渔色,...
评分一 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...
