Book excerpt: Excerpt from Verse Translations From Classic Authors These translations have been made from time to time during the last ten years for the use of my more advanced pupils, and I have found them of very great assistance in producing that effect oflife and reality which is often sosadly to seek in the translation of the schoolboy or undergraduate. I have observed on many occasions that a free verse translation has been far more serviceable in helping a form or an individual to catch the inner meaning of a classic poet, than the most accurate word-for-word version though the latter, of course, has its very useful and proper place, which it is in no danger of losing in these days of revision and re-revision of texts, collating and estimating manuscripts, and revolution ising our established notions in ancient history, literature.

Download or read book Beowulf written by Frederick Rebsamen and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This acclaimed modern verse translation of the timeless epic of bravery and battle captures the drama and tone of the Old English narrative poem. Here is the stirring legend of Beowulf, the great hero who saves the Danish king from the monster Grendel—only to face the avenging wrath of Grendel’s Mother. The first masterpiece of English literature, it has survived for centuries, passed down across generations through numerous versions. In this modern verse translation, Frederick Rebsamen conjures both the excitement of Beowulf’s adventures and the richness of the Old English poetic form. “No self-respecting college professor will want his students to be without it . . . With the subtle rules of alliteration, stress, and pause in place—and with a translator bold enough to invent his own vigorous and imaginative compound nouns—the poem suddenly takes flight and carries us to the highest mountains of achievement.” —Booklist “There are lots of translations of Beowulf floating around, some prose, some poetry, but none manages to capture the feel and tone of the original as well as this one.” —Dick Ringler, Professor of English and Scandinavian Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison

Book excerpt: Great Britain has a long and grand tradition of poets translating classical authors. Virtually every great poet from Chaucer on has tried his or her hand at translation, with the results often rivalling or even excelling the ancient original. This unique anthology presents the best of these translations, ranging from King Alfred, Alexander Pope, and Ben Jonson, to Alfred Lord Tennyson, Ezra Pound, and Ted Hughes. The book offers a vast array of responses to the song, verse, and drama of ancient Greece and Rome, and to poets themselves as varied as Homer, Sappho, Euripides, Virgil, Ovid, and Juvenal. Organized by classical author and text, the book gathers and juxtaposes English versions, sometimes of the same passage or poem, to dramatize the endless renewal of one great poetic tradition in and through another.
