Don Quixote

堂吉诃德

by Miguel de Cervantes

作者:米格尔·德·塞万提斯

Translated by John Ormsby

约翰·奥姆斯比译

Ebook Editor's Note

电子书编辑注

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.

上述封面、书脊及后续图片均非奥姆斯比原译本的组成部分——它们取自1880年J·W·克拉克的版本,插图由古斯塔夫·多雷绘制。

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."

克拉克在其版本中声明:"本版所采用的《堂吉诃德》英文文本为贾维斯译本,并参照莫托的译本作了若干修订。"

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

请参阅下文简介中约翰·奥姆斯比对贾维斯和莫托两个译本的评述。

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.

在当前古腾堡计划版本中,决定将古斯塔夫·多雷的著名版画附于奥姆斯比译本,而非贾维斯/莫托译本。

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.

多雷版画的许多细节,只有点击"完整尺寸"按钮将其放大至原始尺寸,方能得到充分欣赏。

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.

奥姆斯比在其序言中批评了多雷插图的异想天开;而另一些人则认为这些木刻与钢版画与吉诃德的梦想颇为契合。
