Peter Anthony Motteux Libros
Este autor es principalmente recordado por sus contribuciones como traductor, destacando especialmente por completar una obra satírica monumental que otro había comenzado. Si bien sus traducciones fueron significativas, no siempre fueron recibidas con aclamación universal, y algunos de sus esfuerzos atrajeron críticas considerables por su ejecución. Sin embargo, se labró un nicho literario esforzándose por hacer accesibles los textos clásicos a un público más amplio. Su enfoque de la traducción refleja la ambición de capturar la esencia de las obras originales, aunque a veces provocó controversia entre los críticos contemporáneos.

This translation by Sir Thomas Urquhart and Peter Le Motteux brings the bawdy and irreverent humor to life in vivid detail. With over-the-top characters and outrageous situations, this book is a delight for anyone with a taste for the zany and the absurd.
