书籍简介

理查德-威尔伯（Richard Wilbur，1921-2017 年）是美国同时代有成就的诗人之一，同时也是一位多产的法国和俄罗斯文学翻译家。他翻译的莫里哀戏剧尤其受到读者的推崇，至今仍在世界各地的剧院上演。\评论家约翰-西蒙（John Simon）曾经写道："威尔伯使莫里哀成为一位伟大的英国诗歌剧作家，就像他是一位法国剧作家一样。第二卷收录了难以捉摸的杰作《厌世者》（The Misanthrope），人们常说它在喜剧中的地位与莎士比亚的《哈姆雷特》在悲剧中的地位相同；奇幻闹剧《安菲特律翁》（Amphitryon），讲述了朱庇特和墨丘利如何篡改两个凡人的身份；《塔尔图夫》（Tartuffe），莫里哀对虚伪的尖锐讽刺；以及《博学的女士们》（The Learned Ladies），与《塔尔图夫》一样，也是一部关于一个突然颠倒的家庭的戏剧。本卷收录了理查德-威尔伯（Richard Wilbur）的原著导读和亚当-高普尼克（Adam Gopnik）关于威尔伯精湛翻译艺术的导读。

One of the most accomplished American poets of his generation, Richard Wilbur (1921\-2017) was also a prolific translator of French and Russian literature. His verse translations of Moliere\x27s plays are especially admired by readers and are still performed today in theatres around the world. \x27Wilbur,\x27 the critic John Simon once wrote, \x27makes Moliere into as great an English verse playwright as he was a French one.\x27 Now, for the first time, all ten of Wilbur\x27s unsurpassed translations of Moliere\x27s plays are brought together in two\-volume Library of America edition, fulfilling the poet\x27s vision for the translations. The second volume includes the elusive masterpiece, The Misanthrope, often said to occupy the same space in comedy as Shakespeare\x27s Hamlet does in tragedy; the fantastic farce Amphitryon, about how Jupiter and Mercury commandeer the identities of two mortals; Tartuffe, Moliere\x27s biting satire of religious hypocrisy; and The Learned Ladies, like Tarfuffe, a drama of a household turned suddenly upside down. This volume includes the original introductions by Richard Wilbur and an introduction by Adam Gopnik on the exquisite art of Wilbur\x27s translations.
