For the past 120 years, readers of English have known only a poor imitation of Jules Verne's classic French novel Vingt Mille Lieues Sous les Mers and consequently relegated the writer to the category of a "boy's author." Since 1873 the standard English version has been Lewis Mercier's mangled "translation," a work that's filled with errors, mistranslations, and bogus additions, and missing nearly a quarter of Verne's original text.
Now, thanks to the life-long efforts of two Verne scholars, the English-speaking world at last has access to a definitive translation, the only English version based solely on the level of literary artist and scientific visionary, a category he has always enjoyed in Europe and Russia.
Mercier's act of literary vandalism went unnoticed until 1965, when New York University English professor Walter Miller discovered the missing text and began the restoration of the Verne masterpiece. After nearly thirty years of work, including rigorous examinations of his translation by experts in marine technology and biology, Miller teamed that Frederick Paul Walter in 1992 to create this landmark scientific and literary achievement.
Restored to the volume along with the original woodcut illustrations are the entertaining and often prescient drams of Captain Nemo, widely considered the prototypical science-fiction character. In this novel alone Verne has anticipated submarine diving planes, scuba gear, underwater laboratories, and marine ecological disasters. He also inspired large-scale underwater mining and farming of flora and fauna, and electricity from thermoclines, all currently in development.
Restoration of these visionary ideas and some twenty-three percent of the original text is certain to elevate Verne's standing in American scientific and literary circles.
Captain Nemo最终还是在对南极洲这个从未有人类踏足的最宽广陆地的占有欲的驱使下向自己永不跨入陆地一步的誓言低下了他高傲的头颅。 Nemo不是佛,纵然他生活在真正渺无人烟的海底世界,他依旧是个人,他遇见被鲨鱼袭击的印度人时的怀怜悯之心;他面对打扰他宁静又充满激...
評分尼摩船长,一个孤独、博学、自信、愤世嫉俗的人,给我留下了深刻的印象。虽然小说中没有具体描绘他的遭遇,但可想而之,他一定是在社会中,遭到社会的迫害和排挤,不满社会现实和人情冷漠,才制造了鹦鹉螺号。为了避世也好,为了报复也好,都只是科幻小说中的情节,让人羡慕...
評分以下是我看过电影《海底两万里》后写的影评。 看过书,大约看了一半,然后就再也没有读下去的兴趣。曾经在语文课上学过节选的课文,留下的印象,这本书,好,必须看! 其实,书中介绍的东西,很丰富多彩。鹦鹉螺号航行的航线,经过的各种地方,海底各种各...
評分突然发现我看的是译林的版本...之前都没发觉...先汗一个... 印象很深的是尼摩船长面对大海的眼神,当然很多是自己加上去的想象,就像荒野中一人,面对灰暗的惊涛骇浪,岿然不动,带这冷漠的眼神和冷漠的脸色。再有就是他最后在攻击的时候,那番话,那种激动,让我觉得有一种压...
