Stuart Gillespie 
English Translation and Classical Reception [EPUB ebook] 
Towards a New Literary History

支持

English Translation and Classical Reception is the first
genuine cross-disciplinary study bringing English literary history
to bear on questions about the reception of classical literary
texts, and vice versa. The text draws on the author’s
exhaustive knowledge of the subject from the early Renaissance to
the present.
* The first book-length study of English translation as a topic
in classical reception
* Draws on the author’s exhaustive knowledge of English
literary translation from the early Renaissance to the present
* Argues for a remapping of English literary history which would
take proper account of the currently neglected history of classical
translation, from Chaucer to the present
* Offers a widely ranging chronological analysis of English
translation from ancient literatures
* Previously little-known, unknown, and sometimes suppressed
translated texts are recovered from manuscripts and explored in
terms of their implications for English literary history and for
the interpretation of classical literature
