Om denne boken
"On Translating Homer" by Matthew Arnold and Francis William Newman is a series of lectures and responses published between 1861-1862. Arnold's original lectures establish principles for translating Homer's epics, critiquing existing translations and identifying four essential Homeric qualities: rapidity, directness in expression, directness in thought, and nobility. His pointed criticism of Newman's ballad-style translation sparked a public debate, with Newman defending his approach and Arnold issuing a final rebuttal, creating a fascinating clash over literary translation theory.
