Atlantis: The Antedeluvian World — Page 4
Now, in the language of Frederick Schlegel, "the deeper and more comprehensive the researches of the moderns have been, the more their regard and esteem for Herodotus has increased."
이제 프레데릭 슐레겔의 말을 빌리자면, "근대인들의 연구가 깊고 포괄적일수록, 헤로도토스에 대한 그들의 경의와 존경심은 더욱 높아졌다."
Buckle says, "His minute information about Egypt and Asia Minor is admitted by all geographers."
버클은 "이집트와 소아시아에 관한 그의 세밀한 정보는 모든 지리학자들에게 인정받고 있다"고 말한다.
There was a time when the expedition sent out by Pharaoh Necho to circumnavigate Africa was doubted, because the explorers stated that after they had progressed a certain distance the sun was north of them;
파라오 네코가 아프리카를 일주하기 위해 파견한 원정대가 의심받던 시절이 있었는데, 탐험가들이 일정 거리를 항해한 후 태양이 그들의 북쪽에 있었다고 진술했기 때문이었다.
this circumstance, which then aroused suspicion, now proves to us that the Egyptian navigators had really passed the equator, and anticipated by 2100 years Vasquez de Gama in his discovery of the Cape of Good Hope.
당시 의혹을 불러일으켰던 이 상황은, 이제 이집트 항해자들이 실제로 적도를 통과했으며 바스쿠 다 가마의 희망봉 발견보다 2100년이나 앞섰음을 우리에게 증명해 준다.
If I succeed in demonstrating the truth of the somewhat startling propositions with which I commenced this chapter, it will only be by bringing to bear upon the question of Atlantis a thousand converging lines of light from a multitude of researches made by scholars in different fields of modern thought.
내가 이 장을 시작하면서 제시한 다소 놀라운 명제들의 진실을 입증하는 데 성공한다면, 그것은 오직 현대 사상의 다양한 분야에서 학자들이 수행한 수많은 연구들로부터 나온 수천 개의 수렴하는 빛의 선들을 아틀란티스 문제에 집중시킴으로써만 가능할 것이다.
Further investigations and discoveries will, I trust, confirm the correctness of the conclusions at which I have arrived.
나는 추가적인 조사와 발견들이 내가 도달한 결론들의 정확성을 확인해 줄 것이라고 믿는다.
