THE PURPOSE OF THE BOOK.
이 책의 목적.
This book is an attempt to demonstrate several distinct and novel propositions.
이 책은 몇 가지 독특하고 새로운 명제들을 증명하려는 시도이다.
These are:
그 명제들은 다음과 같다:
1. That there once existed in the Atlantic Ocean, opposite the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea, a large island, which was the remnant of an Atlantic continent, and known to the ancient world as Atlantis.
1. 지중해 입구 맞은편 대서양에, 대서양 대륙의 잔재로서 고대 세계에 아틀란티스로 알려진 큰 섬이 한때 존재하였다는 것.
2. That the description of this island given by Plato is not, as has been long supposed, fable, but veritable history.
2. 플라톤이 전한 이 섬에 대한 묘사는 오랫동안 여겨져 온 것처럼 우화가 아니라 진실한 역사라는 것.
3. That Atlantis was the region where man first rose from a state of barbarism to civilization.
3. 아틀란티스는 인류가 처음으로 야만 상태에서 문명으로 발전한 지역이라는 것.
4. That it became, in the course of ages, a populous and mighty nation, from whose overflowings the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, the Mississippi River, the Amazon, the Pacific coast of South America, the Mediterranean, the west coast of Europe and Africa, the Baltic, the Black Sea, and the Caspian were populated by civilized nations.
4. 아틀란티스는 세월이 흐르면서 인구가 많고 강대한 나라가 되었으며, 그곳에서 흘러나온 사람들이 멕시코만 연안, 미시시피강, 아마존강, 남아메리카 태평양 연안, 지중해, 유럽과 아프리카의 서쪽 해안, 발트해, 흑해, 그리고 카스피해 연안에 문명화된 민족들을 이루었다는 것.
5. That it was the true Antediluvian world; the Garden of Eden; the Gardens of the Hesperides; the Elysian Fields; the Gardens of Alcinous; the Mesomphalos; the Olympos; the Asgard of the traditions of the ancient nations; representing a universal memory of a great land, where early mankind dwelt for ages in peace and happiness.
5. 아틀란티스는 진정한 홍수 이전의 세계, 즉 에덴동산, 헤스페리데스의 정원, 엘리시온 들판, 알키노오스의 정원, 메솜팔로스, 올림포스, 고대 민족들의 전통 속에 나오는 아스가르드였으며, 초기 인류가 오랜 세월 동안 평화와 행복 속에 살았던 위대한 땅에 대한 보편적인 기억을 나타낸다는 것.
6. That the gods and goddesses of the ancient Greeks, the Phoenicians, the Hindoos, and the Scandinavians were simply the kings, queens, and heroes of Atlantis; and the acts attributed to them in mythology are a confused recollection of real historical events.
6. 고대 그리스인, 페니키아인, 힌두인, 그리고 스칸디나비아인들의 신과 여신들은 단순히 아틀란티스의 왕, 왕비, 그리고 영웅들이었으며, 신화 속에서 그들에게 귀속된 행적들은 실제 역사적 사건들에 대한 혼란스러운 기억이라는 것.
