About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... the platonic ideas into a crude Latin phraseology, the spirit of Plato had been truly understood and appreciated."1 Translation, again, may be admirable from the linguistic, the grammatical, and idiomatic point of view, and yet detestable from the literary standpoint. Only when it is admirable from the highest point of view does it become a version. And the typical example of this is the authorised translation of the Old Testament. As well remarked in an article in the Times on "The Poetry of King Alfred," 2 "the originality which is felt in Alfred's work through the guise of translation consists largely in his masterful transformation of his text, like a man whose purpose is well known to himself and is remote from aims merely literary." The instance taken is the passage in 1 Plato, vol. iv. p. 39 (3rd ed., 1892). 2 August 20, 1901. L which "the position of the Earth in the celestial system is likened to the yolk in an egg " similar to what we see in an egg; the yolk in the midst, and yet gliding free, the egg round about. So all the world resteth still in its place, while streaming around water-floods play, welkin and stars; and the shining shell circleth about, day by day now as it did long ago. The writer continues: --" But in this simile of the egg the text has no part; it is a solid addition from his own stores, and it illustrates the purpose of his mind. He is seeking to convey great ideas by easy and familiar means; he is seeking to bring down the lore of the philosopher to the comprehension of his untutored folk. The egg manifests this purpose in a concrete and conspicuous manner, and it is a typical example of his teaching." Here we have a case of conscientious analogy. Just as it is...
