Product Description

内容説明

Harrius Potter et Philosophi Lapis; Caput Primum; Puer qui Vixit; 'Dominus et Domina Dursley, qui vivebant in aedibus Gestationis Ligustrorum numero quattor signatis...' this opening, also known as 'Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive...' has become one of the most read opening chapters in the world. Newly translated into Latin for the first time, this is following in the steps of other great children's classics, including Winnie the Pooh (winnie ille pu) and Paddington Bear (ursus nomine paddington). The huge task of translating into Latin (most translations are done from Latin) has been undertaken by Peter Needham, who taught Latin at Eton for over 30 years. James Morwood, of Oxford University, has said of the translation, 'The translation is great stuff. It is accurate and fluent, but it is much more than that. It has been carried off with wit, inventiveness, sensitivity and panache. I find it impossible to think of its being better done.'

4.0 out of 5 stars 良い本だが初心者向とは言い難い, 2004/2/9
パディントンのラテン語版の作者が訳した本書は、優れた翻訳といえる。但し、語彙は初心者向きとは言い難い。更に具合の悪いことには、「プー」や「星の王子様」のラテン語訳に見られるような語彙のリストがない。このため、辞書を片手に読むという作業を強いられるのが難点である。従って星４個と評価した。

5.0 out of 5 stars Many children's classics are translated into Latin, 2005/3/29
By the_bernie-at-tx-rr-com "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This is but one of the many children's classics that are translated into Latin. Naturally there are going to be people that will pick apart the book and say that is not correct form or syntax. Then again Harrius Potter has not been around that long. And pulling it apart is really part of the fun. Just remember that the translator Peter Needham taught classics at Eton for more than thirty years.

Let's face it, it is easer and more fun to read something you already know. Also it is fun to see how certain phrases and newer concepts are handled. Learning Latin this way also helps kids pass English tests in school by learning root concepts.

So all together now:
Dominus et Domina Dursley, qiu ...
