The Odyssey

The Fitzgerald Translation (Deluxe Edition)

Übersetzer: Fitzgerald, Robert

Beschreibung

This is the best-loved modern translation of the Odyssey, and the only one admired as a great poem in English. Fitzgerald's supple verse is ideally suited to the story of Odysseus' long journey home after the Trojan War. Homer's tale of love, adventure, sensual pleasure, and danger reaches the English-language reader in all its glory.

Autor

Homer is a legendary ancient Greek epic poet, traditionally said to be the creator of the epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey. Homer's works form the groundwork of the Western Canon and are universally praised for their genius. Their formative influence in shaping many key aspects of Greek culture was recognized by the Greeks themselves, who considered him as their instructor.
