The Iliad Paperback Book
“Refund was approved and back in my account the same day.” - Deliver+ customer
A work of tremendous influence that has inspired writers from his ancient Greek contemporaries to modernist writers such as T.S. Eliot, Homers epic poem The Iliad is translated by Robert Fagles with an introduction and notes by Bernard Knox in Penguin Classics.One of the foremost achievements in Western literature, Homers Iliad tells the story of the darkest episode in the Trojan War. At its centre is Achilles, the greatest warriorchampion of the Greeks, and his refusal to fight after being humiliated by his leader Agamemnon. But when the Trojan Hector kills Achilles close friend Patroclus, Achilles storms back into battle to take revenge although knowing this will ensure his own early death. Interwoven with this tragic sequence of events are powerfully moving descriptions of the ebb and flow of battle, of the domestic world inside Troys besieged city of Ilium, and of the conflicts between the Gods on Olympus as they argue over the fate of mortals.Seven Greek cities claim the honour of being the birthplace of Homer (c. 8th7th century BC), the poet to whom the composition of the Iliad and Odyssey are attributed. The Iliad is the oldest surviving work of Western literature, but the identity or even the existence of Homer himself is a complete mystery, with no reliable biographical information having survived.If you enjoyed The Iliad, you might like The Odyssey, also available in Penguin Classics.An astonishing performancePeter LeviPlain and direct, noble, above all rapid...
