Produktbeschreibung
In the shadow of Troy's burning walls, destinies clash and legends are forged. Homer's Iliad; Books XIII-XXIV sweeps readers into the heart of the Trojan War era, where gods and mortals are locked in a struggle that will echo through centuries. This ancient Greek epic stands as a cornerstone of classical literature, its poetic narrative alive with epic battles and heroes, shifting allegiances, and the timeless tension between fate and free will. Within these later books, the story deepens: the conflict between divine will and human courage surges, revealing the raw power of Greek mythology themes. The ancient Greece setting is vivid and immediate, drawing in students of classical studies and readers of ancient texts alike. Each page is a testament to the enduring allure of Homer's vision-a world where the ambitions of kings and the whims of gods shape the course of history. For admirers of Virgil and the Aeneid, or those seeking an Odyssey companion book, this volume offers both a standalone treasure and a vital link in the epic tradition. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
Autorenporträt
Homer (8th or 9th century BCE) is the presumed author of The Iliad and the Odyssey, two great epic poems of ancient Greece. Little is known of him, but given the historical assumption that Homer was the author of the two epics, it cannot be denied that he was then one of the greatest of the world's literary artists.
