Don Quixote

ドン・キホーテ

by Miguel de Cervantes

ミゲル・デ・セルバンテス著

Translated by John Ormsby

ジョン・オームズビー訳

Ebook Editor's Note

電子書籍編集者注

The book cover and spine above and the images which follow were not part of the original Ormsby translation—they are taken from the 1880 edition of J. W. Clark, illustrated by Gustave Doré.

上記の表紙と背表紙、および以下に続く画像は、オームズビー翻訳の原本には含まれていなかったものであり、ギュスターヴ・ドレによって挿絵が描かれたJ・W・クラークの1880年版から取られたものです。

Clark in his edition states that, "The English text of 'Don Quixote' adopted in this edition is that of Jarvis, with occasional corrections from Motteaux."

クラークはその版において、「本版で採用された『ドン・キホーテ』の英訳テキストはジャービスのものであり、モトーからの修正が随所に加えられている」と述べています。

See in the introduction below John Ormsby's critique of both the Jarvis and Motteaux translations.

以下の序文にあるジャービス訳とモトー訳の両方に対するジョン・オームズビーの批評をご参照ください。

It has been elected in the present Project Gutenberg edition to attach the famous engravings of Gustave Doré to the Ormsby translation instead of the Jarvis/Motteaux.

今回のプロジェクト・グーテンベルク版では、ジャービス/モトー訳の代わりに、ギュスターヴ・ドレの有名な版画をオームズビー訳に添付することが選択されました。

The detail of many of the Doré engravings can be fully appreciated only by utilizing the "Full Size" button to expand them to their original dimensions.

ドレの版画の多くの細部は、「フルサイズ」ボタンを使用して元の寸法に拡大することによってのみ、十分に鑑賞することができます。

Ormsby in his Preface has criticized the fanciful nature of Doré's illustrations; others feel these woodcuts and steel engravings well match Quixote's dreams.

オームズビーはその序文においてドレの挿絵の空想的な性質を批判しているが、これらの木版画や鋼版画はキホーテの夢をよく表していると感じる人もいます。
