PREFACIO DEL TRADUCTOR

El texto que se ha seguido en la presente Traducción es el de Jahn (Bonn, 1867), revisado por Vahlen, y republicado en 1884. En varias ocasiones ha sido necesario divergir de las lecturas de Vahlen, tales divergencias se señalan debidamente en las Notas.

Una palabra sobre el objetivo y el alcance de la presente Traducción. Mi objeto a lo largo ha sido hacer hablar a Longino en inglés, preservar, en la medida de mi poder, el fuego noble y el tono elevado del original. Cómo lograr esto, sin ser traicionado a una paráfrasis laxa, fue un problema sumamente difícil. El estilo de Longino está en un alto grado original, ocasionalmente incurriendo en extrañas excentricidades del lenguaje; y nadie que no haya intentado puede darse cuenta de la dificultad de dar algo parecido a una versión adecuada de los pasajes más elaborados. Estas consideraciones las presento a aquellos a quienes me pueda parecer a primera vista que he manejado mi texto con demasiada libertad.

Mis mejores agradecimientos son para el Dr. Butcher, profesor de griego en la Universidad de Edimburgo, quien desde el principio hasta el final ha mostrado un interés vivo en esta empresa que jamás podré reconocer suficientemente. Ha leído la Traducción en su totalidad, y actuando sobre sus sugerencias, he podido en numerosas ocasiones llevar mi versión a una conformidad más estrecha con el original.

También debo reconocer la amabilidad del distinguido escritor que ha contribuido la Introducción, y que, a pesar de las pesadas exigencias de su tiempo, ha prestado su poderoso apoyo para ayudar en la obra de alguien que era personalmente desconocido para él.

En conclusión, me permito expresar la esperanza de que el presente intento pueda contribuir algo a reavivar un interés por un clásico injustamente desatendido.
