Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Iliad of Homer, Books I-IV: Translated Into English Hexameter Verse The author of the present attempt would humbly suggest, in reply, that their want of success is mainly due to the fact that a large proportion of the lines that have been written in English, and called hexameters - not only by translators of Homer, but by other writers and poets as well - are not really hexameters at all i.e. They cannot be read as such except by putting a totally wrong and false emphasis on many of the syllables forming the lines. Now, since accentuation of syllables is the only possible equivalent in English for what is called quantity in Greek or Latin, it follows that any unnatural wresting or straining of the accentuation must necessarily destroy the music and rhythm of the metre, just as false quantities would do in Greek or Latin verse, and thus render its sound unpleasing, rugged and harsh. The temptation to fall into this error in English, where the accentua tion is entirely a matter of ear, and dependent to a great extent on the exact sense intended, is no doubt very great, and especially so in a translation, where the meaning of the original must be faithfully given.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Iliad of Homer, Vol. 1 of 2: Translated Into English Hexameter Verse This translation comprises about half the Iliad, and includes all the main story and nearly all the most cele brated passages. The abridgment was not merely to save work. The omitted parts with few exceptions are inferior in literary skill and interest, are irrelevant to the plot and unduly delay its action, and in the opinion of the translator are mostly interpolations or later addi tions. Apart from these considerations the Iliad is much too long to suit modern taste; and its inordinate length, even in ancient times, became a proverb both in the Greek and Latin tongues. The scholar who cares little for the story as a whole, and likes to pick up the original for single passages, and the student and antiquarian who read it for special purposes, find the Iliad none too long, but with the ordinary reader it is otherwise.
