The iliad

9781853262425 - The iliad
2e hands

Artikelomschrijving

The product of more than a decades continuous work (1598-1611), Chapmans translation of Homers great poem of war is a magnificent testimony to the power of The Iliad. In muscular, onward-rolling verse Chapman retells the story of Achilles, the great warrior, and his terrible wrath before the walls of besieged Troy, and the destruction it wreaks on both Greeks and Trojans. Chapman regarded the translation of this epic, and of Homers Odyssey (also available in Wordsworth Editions) as his lifes work, and dedicated himself to capturing the soul of the poem.
