Vinte Mil Leguas Submarinas: Edicao Completa, Traducao Portugues Do Brasil
Vinte Mil Leguas Submarinas: Edicao Completa, Traducao Portugues Do Brasil | Julio Verne
Em 1954, quando a Marinha americana lancou o primeiro submarino nuclear, batizou-o de Nautilus, em homenagem a Julio Verne e ao capitao Nemo, o protagonista de 20 000 leguas. Nemo qualifica a si mesmo nos seguintes termos: Nao sou o que se chama de homem civilizado! Rejeitei a sociedade e suas leis!. A bordo de seu fantastico submarino, esse homem percorre o planeta atacando navios que o perseguem e, paradoxalmente, ajudando os povos que lutam pela liberdade.

In the second half of this novel, Captain Nemo, along with the Nautilus and its hostages, encounter a series of ever so growing perilous encounters. After leaving the Mediterranean, the submarine continues through the Indian Ocean, where Professor Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned Land witness incredible nautical marvels. However, Ned begins to grow impatient of living in the Nautilus. Wanting freedom from his hellish aquatic prison, he plans to escape.

Afonso.Almeida The Nautilus next navigates through dangerous waters, facing dangerous storms, gargantuan underwater creatures, and battle with giant squid. During a pivotal attack on a warship pursuing the Nautilus, Nemo‘s intense hatred surfaces, leaving Aronnax and his companions scarred and contemplating the Captain‘s morality. The story climaxes as the Nautilus enters a whirlpool in Norwegian waters, which imperils the Nautilus. In a close-call escape, 4d
Afonso.Almeida Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned finally escape the chains they were bound to. The novel closes ambiguously, with Aronnax recounting these incredible adventures he has had in the past ten months, unsure of Captain Nemo‘s ultimate fate or the secrets still hidden at the depths of the sea. 4d
Afonso.Almeida Isolation in the pursuit of knowledge leads to enlightenment but also alienation. True fulfillment requires not only discovery but also connection to humanity and what is morally right. Captain Nemo uses the Nautilus to futher his knowledge of the country of his adoption, while also enacting his revenge onto those who banished him from their society. Captain Nemo uses his knowledge for morally incorrect reasons, instead of using it as research. (edited) 4d

In the first half of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, the story is told from the first-person point of view of Professor Pierre Aronnax, a French naturalist. The story begins with tales of a mysterious sea creature wreaking havoc to ships at sea, leading to rumours of it being a sea monster. Professor Aronnax, along with his servant Conseil and Canadian harpooner Ned Land, is invited onto the USS Abraham Lincoln to hunt down the creature.

Afonso.Almeida After a long chase, the ship encounters the creature, which is revealed to be a highly advanced submarine called the Nautilus. The ship‘s captain, captain Nemo, reveals that he has renounced the world on the surface, preferring the isolated sea as his home. Captain Nemo shows Professor Aronnax the marvels of the deep seas, along with the submarine‘s technological advancements, that truly were a marvel for its time. The perspective of this story 4w
Afonso.Almeida Creates immersion in the story that allows the reader to experience the underwater odyssey as though they were there, being a part of Captain Nemo‘s crew. Written in 1870, 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea foretells with uncanny accuracy the scientific inventions of the twentieth century. If you enjoy thrilling dramas, this is an exemplary book to read. 4w

I think what's most remarkable is how much of this book can still be full of (fictional?) wonders for the average modern reader, the bottom of the ocean has not become less remote a prospect for most to explore despite 150 years of scientific and technological progress. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? That being said, if you like detailed descriptions of ocean life, on repeat, with scientific calculations and recountings of history, you'll have a better chance of enjoying this book than if you go in looking for an adventure story. The ratio leans heavily towards observations and discussion, rather than action - which doesn't stop Verne from jam-packing the last eighth with some memorable episodes. 6mo
Robotswithpersonality 3/? I appreciate that mystery remains regarding the figure of Captain Nemo, though his convenient metamorphosis from amiable tyrant happy to discuss ship, navigation and ocean to anguished obsessive bent on vengeance felt a bit abrupt. 6mo
Robotswithpersonality 4/? Following the science was also tricky because after this many decades, without setting myself a research project, where is the line drawn between what is fictional and what has simply been disproven in the interim? I just felt disengaged from so much of that content because I couldn't float along clearly on 'suspended disbelief' or 'nifty facts discovered'.
6mo
See All 9 Comments
Robotswithpersonality 5/? Did make me sad to see the narrator recount the many species in the sea, the clarity of the water. What a difference a century and half of humanity has made (even if I don't subscribe to Nemo's misanthropy).
The promise of knowledge versus the chance at freedom is not a dichotomy I've seen presented so thoroughly as a character dilemma before, so convincingly, it added admirable tension to the narrative.
6mo
Robotswithpersonality 6/? Ned and Conseil are occasionally amusing interlocutors, but Conseil is too often servile as an identity and Ned is too often a wet blanket or point of friction stereotype to make for fully fleshed out characters. (edited) 6mo
Robotswithpersonality 7/8 One last thing, because I'd like to believe I'm not the only one who had this wrong based on the title:
Leagues is primarily a distance measurement, they mostly used yards for depth, so it's not 20,000 leagues straight down, it's that they were underwater, traveling around various oceans at various depths for 20,000 leagues distance. You're welcome. 💁🏼‍♂️
6mo
Robotswithpersonality 8/8 ⚠️Outdated and offensive terms for Black and Indigenous peoples used, a lot of discussion of all the animals which can be and are caught and eaten, (some butchery involved); assessing various ocean life for purely commercial value, lot of 'this guy 'discovered' this place', as well as explorer history; tries to mash together Biblical creationism/ Bible history with actual science/history on occasion- never a comfortable mix 6mo
Karisimo I think Rick Riordan did a good job bringing it back to life in his middle grade book 6mo
Lunakay Great review, I recently finished this as well and agree with all your assessments. Also recommend Riordan's modern version which picks up both, this book and the follow up 6mo

Interesting to see the cognitive dissonance at work in the characters that history shows on repeat: 'Don't hunt that for sport, it's endangered, but do hunt that, we want (don't NEED) to eat it, or that, because there's profit and plenty and we'll never run out.' 🤦🏼‍♂️

Woohee…the book itself is ok. You know how sometimes a character asks a question just so someone else can show off in their answer, to show off how smart the author is? Welcome to this book. “I‘m Jules Verne and I did tons of marine research for this book so here it is” info dump, over and over. The voyage itself was actually interesting, but it was maybe 20% of the book. No idea how this is a “classic,” TBH. 👇🏻

ravenlee This audio version specifically is a mess. Chapters out of order is the least of it. Worst narrator ever. She mispronounced everything! Including salmon, incomparable, and Glasgow 😳. Also, for some inexplicable reason she gave Ned Land, Canadian, specifically from Quebec, this weird hillbilly accent?! I can‘t even… 13mo
ravenlee My biggest complaint about the book itself is the ending. Very much like Verne couldn‘t figure out how to get out of the corner he painted himself into regarding Nemo, so he just…didn‘t. Irritating. 13mo

20000 Leagues under the seas is the book I'm currently reading.

And - NO. I don't relate to any of the characters in this book. In fact, I passionately dislike most of them. It doesn't matter to me all the characters in this book are men so far. (Wow, I just realised not a single woman showed up or was even only mentioned in this book yet... Talk about patrialism in the 19th century 😅)
But that alone wouldn't matter to me. ⤵️

Yuki_Onna I'm not that feminist usually - I normally can relate to male characters as well. I don't care about the sex of people/characters to be able to relate to them.
Males can be positive & wonderful and females can be awful & terrible. Being a man doesn't make you a repressive backwards person & being a woman doesn't make you a wonderful progressive beautiful person by default, as so many radically feminist people nowadays seem to believe. ⤵️
1y
Yuki_Onna I've met many beautiful clever wonderful & supporting men in my life and a few absolutely obnoxious repressive women, ugly from the inside (and outside sometimes) who had their part in abusing me and who nearly ruined all my life - I still struggle with overcoming their horrible impact on me.
So I'm not that firm a believer in feminism - at least not in the notion that 'old white men' should be inferior and more backwards to women by default. ⤵️
1y
Yuki_Onna THAT book, though... It is the epitome of backwards patriarchy and of male supremacy theories.
So far, again, not a single female has even been mentioned! 🫠
And the characters in this monstrous tome - I cannot relate to a single one of them. Not because they are all male, but because they are all so righteous. And boring. And backwards. And bigoted. And full of themselves and their importance.😑☠

Yuki_Onna And Captain Ahab - whom every reader apparently is supposed to adore - is the most bigoted hypocrite of them all. I absolutely loathe him with a vengeance.

So - after a long rant😅 - no!!! I do not relate to any of the characters in this book. It doesn't matter whether they are male or female, even if they were asexual aliens or some kind of rock species.
They are all so arrogant and know-it-all and above everybody else it just sucks. 🤮

Continuing with this audiobook, the narrator has also mispronounced aquatic (sounds like a duck in the middle), echinoderm (with a sh- instead of a -k), and I suspect multiple marine species but can‘t confirm any of them. How can a narrator of a book about undersea voyaging mispronounce aquatic? A lot of this is just rolling past my ears at this point, but to be honest it probably would anyway. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I‘m trying out this audiobook (I‘ve read very few audiobooks but I‘m still trying) to get some stuff done while kiddo is at dance camp.

At the 20% point, the narrator has mispronounced the composers Wagner and Weber, Senegal, comparable, and, most egregiously and frequently for this particular book, mollusk. It‘s driving me slowly insane.

NatalieR 😅 I totally understand your pain! 1y
TheAromaofBooks Oh dear. This seems like it would be a rather ponderous audiobook in the best of times - when I read it in physical form I'm able to skim through all the paragraphs that say things like, “we were at 40* 38' west of the French toast current“ 😂 1y
ravenlee @TheAromaofBooks I will admit to a certain amount of zoning out so far, then snapping back in with a little anxiety, only to realize we‘re still talking about the tropic of Cancer or whatever. 1y
Clare-Dragonfly OK, I had to go look up “mollusk” to see if I‘ve been pronouncing it correctly, and now that I know I have… how on earth is this narrator pronouncing it?! 1y
ravenlee @Clare-Dragonfly muh-LUSK, and apparently it shows up all. The. Time. In this book. 1y

Finally finished this one - a classic everyone knows, but only a few have read. I‘ve read the original translation which made it difficult sometimes (the German language changed a lot ever since). In general, every chapter is mini adventure on the Nautilus, which I liked. But there are a lot of descriptions of the underwater flora and fauna, sometimes too many and too detailed. And the ending was very aprupt and left questions open.

Ruthiella The details were too much for me too when I re-read it a few years ago. I strongly suspect that I read an abridged version as a kid! 3y
