python 2.7 字符 \u2013 [重复]

我有以下代码：

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

print u"William Burges (1827–81) was an English architect and designer."

当我尝试从cmd运行它时。我收到以下消息：

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python27\utf8.py", line 3, in <module>
    print u"William Burges (1827ŌĆō81) was an English architect and designer."
  File "C:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp775.py", line 12, in encode
    return codecs.charmap_encode(input,errors,encoding_map)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\u2013' in position
 20: character maps to <undefined>

我怎样才能解决这个问题并使Python读取这个\u2013字符？为什么Python不使用现有代码来读取它，我认为utf-8适用于每个字符。

谢谢

EDIT:

此代码打印出想要的结果：

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

print unicode("William Burges (1827-81) was an English architect and designer.", "utf-8").encode("cp866")

但是当我尝试打印多个句子时，例如：

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

print unicode("William Burges (1827–81) was an English architect and designer. I am here. ", "utf-8").encode("cp866")

我收到相同的错误消息：

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python27\utf8vs.py", line 3, in <module>
    print unicode("William Burges (1827ŌĆō81) was an English architect and desig
ner. I am here. ", "utf-8").encode("cp866")
  File "C:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp866.py", line 12, in encode
    return codecs.charmap_encode(input,errors,encoding_map)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character u'\u2013' in position
 20: character maps to <undefined>

您的字符串包含 ndash 符号。类似于 ascii minus-，参见符号 45 和ASCII表 http://www.asciitable.com/。将 ndash 替换为减号，因为 ascii 不能包含 ndash。以下工作变体：

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

my_string = "William Burges (1827–81) was an English architect and designer."
my_string = my_string.replace("–", "-")# replace utf-8 symbol (ndash) to ascii (-)
print my_string

output

William Burges (1827-81) was an English architect and designer. I am here.
