Book excerpt: 'Tell me, Muse, of the man of many turns, who was driven far and wide after he had sacked the sacred city of Troy' Twenty years after setting out to fight in the Trojan War, Odysseus is yet to return home to Ithaca. His household is in disarray: a horde of over 100 disorderly and arrogant suitors are vying to claim Odysseus' wife Penelope, and his young son Telemachus is powerless to stop them. Meanwhile, Odysseus is driven beyond the limits of the known world, encountering countless divine and earthly challenges. But Odysseus is 'of many wiles' and his cunning and bravery eventually lead him home, to reclaim both his family and his kingdom. The Odyssey rivals the Iliad as the greatest poem of Western culture and is perhaps the most influential text of classical literature. This elegant and compelling new translation is accompanied by a full introduction and notes that guide the reader in understanding the poem and the many different contexts in which it was performed and read.
Download or read book The Odyssey written by Homer and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2005-09-27 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold new translation that preserves the swiftness, austerity, and clarity of the original. "Tell us, Goddess, daughter of Zeus, start in your own place: when all the rest at Troy had fled from that steep doom and gone back home, away from war and the salt sea, only this man longed for his wife and a way home." Homer's Odyssey, at once an exciting epic of strife and subterfuge and a deeply felt tale of love and devotion, stands at the very beginning of the Western literary tradition. From ancient Greece to the present day its influence on later literature has been unsurpassed, and for centuries translators have approached the meter, tone, and pace of Homer's poetry with a variety of strategies. Chapman and Pope paid keen attention to color, drama, and vivacity of style, rendering the Greek verse loosely and inventively. In the twentieth century, translators such as Lattimore kept rigorously close to the sense of each word in the original; others, including Fitzgerald and Fagles, have departed further from the language of the original, employing their own inventive modern style. Poet and translator Edward McCrorie now opens new territory in this striking rendition, which captures the spare, powerful tone of Homer's epic while engaging contemporary readers with its brisk pace, idiomatic language, and lively characterization. McCrorie closely reproduces the Greek metrical patterns and employs a diction and syntax that reflects the plain, at times stark, quality of Homer's lines, rather than later English poetic styles. Avoiding both the stiffness of word-for-word literalism and the exaggeration and distortion of free adaptation, this translation dramatically evokes the ancient sound and sense of the poem. McCrorie's is truly an Odyssey for the twenty-first century. To accompany this innovative translation, noted classical scholar Richard Martin has written an accessible and wide-ranging introduction explaining the historical and literary context of the Odyssey, its theological and cultural underpinnings, Homer's poetic strategies and narrative techniques, and his cast of characters. In addition, Martin provides detailed notes—far more extensive than those in other editions—addressing key themes and concepts; the histories of persons, gods, events, and myths; literary motifs and devices; and plot development. Also included is a pronunciation glossary and character index.

Download or read book Poetic Odyssey II written by Don Petrucelle and published by Alliance Book Company. This book was released on 2003-12-01 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the weary mind, overwhelmed by the assault of conflicting world views, there are few prescriptions as effective as a walk on the beach and the Zen of selecting sea shells that speak to one's soul through profound simplicity. Reading Poetic Odyssey II is like that walk on the beach of life and each poem is a shell discovered, a crystallization of experiential wisdom in one concise vision that transcends time and space. Each stanza forms a line, a shape, a color of an experience, of an insight that reaches far beyond its literal value. Through this collection, Don touches the essence of art--when personal experience merges with universal principle. If you are in need of an inspiring moment, and you are unable to fill that prescription of a walk on the beach, this is a book that you will want close at hand. John J. Falone, author of "The Genius Frequency (An Owner's Manual for the Cosmic Mind)"
