Beskrivelse

Homer’s Iliad stands as the cornerstone of Western literature, masterfully unfolding the dramatic events of the final year of the Trojan War across twenty-four books of Greek hexameter poetry. This renowned translation by Alexander Pope, crafted in captivating rhyming couplets, is often hailed as one of the greatest feats of literary translation in English. Dive into this epic narrative that begins with the furious wrath of Achilles and culminates with the poignant burial of Hector, the noble horseman. (Introduction by Steve Perkins)
