Download or read book The Adventures of Ulysses written by Charles Lamb and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is designed as a supplement to the Adventures of Telemachus. It treats of the conduct and sufferings of Ulysses, the father of Telemachus. The picture which it exhibits is that of a brave man struggling with adversity; by a wise use of events, and with an inimitable presence of mind under difficulties, forcing out a way for himself through the severest trials to which human life can be exposed; with enemies natural and preternatural surrounding him on all sides. The agents in this tale, besides men and women, are giants, enchanters, sirens: things which denote external force or internal temptations, the twofold danger which a wise fortitude must expect to encounter in its course through this world. The fictions contained in it will be found to comprehend some of the most admired inventions of Grecian mythology.The groundwork of the story is as old as the Odyssey, but the moral and the coloring are comparatively modern. By avoiding the prolixity which marks the speeches and the descriptions in Homer, I have gained a rapidity to the narration which I hope will make it more attractive and give it more the air of a romance to young readers, though I am sensible that by the curtailment I have sacrificed in many places the manners to the passion, the subordinate characteristics to the essential interest of the story. The attempt is not to be considered as seeking a comparison with any of the direct translations of the Odyssey, either in prose or verse, though if I were to state the obligations which I have had to one obsolete version, [Footnote: The translation of Homer by Chapman in the reign of James I.] I should run the hazard of depriving myself of the very slender degree of reputation which I could hope to acquire from a trifle like the present undertaking.

Book excerpt: The Adventures of Ulysses, Charles Lamb re-tells the story of Ulysses's journey from Troy to his own kingdom of Ithaca. The book uses Homer's The Odyssey as the basis for the story, but it isn't a direct translation of the Greek classic. The book is considered a modern version of the epic tale when it was published in 1808. In the preface of the book, Lamb said that he made the narration of the story faster so that more readers would be attracted to it.To begin with, Homer's Odyssey is already a classic and in re-telling this story, Charles Lamb aimed to make this epic poem more comprehensible to the average person. And he was successful in doing what he aimed for. The book became very popular not just to adults but also among children because it was well-written and can be easily understood. Lamb was really talented in bringing deep, hard to understand works of literature close to the masses. Before The Adventures of Ulysses, Lamb also wrote Tales From Shakespeare in which some of Shakespeare's plays were retold as short stories, so like Ulysses, they can also be easily read.The Adventures of Ulysses is filled with interesting characters including sirens, giants, warriors and enchanters. Each chapter is filled with new adventures and challenges which Ulysses must face and overcome. Lamb was able to retell the story of Ulysses's adventures in a light and entertaining way without losing any of the important details of the original story.Readers who are into Greek mythology and are also looking to read a version of Homer's Odyssey will surely enjoy reading this book. The original version of the Odyssey may not be easy to read for everyone. If you're looking for a book that will let you understand the story of the epic tale with great accuracy this is the book for you.In The Adventures of Ulysses, Charles Lamb re-tells the story of Ulysses's journey from Troy to his own kingdom of Ithaca.
