Download or read book Iliad 10 and the Poetics of Ambush written by Casey Dué and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tenth book of the Iliad has been doubted, ignored, and even scorned in Homeric scholarship. Using established methods for interpreting oral traditional poetry, however, Due and Ebbott illuminate many of the interpretive questions that strictly literary approaches find unsolvable, and they demonstrate how the episode shares in the oral traditional nature of the whole epic, even though its poetics are specific to its nocturnal ambush plot. True to their multitextual approach to the text, Due and Ebbott have included a series of critical texts of Iliad 10, including the tenth-century Venetus A manuscript and select papyri, and discuss these individual witnesses and the variations they offer. The essays and commentary explore Iliad 10 within the larger contexts of Homeric epic and the epic tradition. --Book Jacket.

Download or read book The Iliad The Odyssey written by Homer and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-04-29 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iliad: Join Achilles at the Gates of Troy as he slays Hector to Avenge the death of Patroclus. Here is a story of love and war, hope and despair, and honor and glory. The recent major motion picture Helen of Troy staring Brad Pitt proves that this epic is as relevant today as it was twenty five hundred years ago when it was first written. So journey back to the Trojan War with Homer and relive the grandest adventure of all times. The Odyssey: Journey with Ulysses as he battles to bring his victorious, but decimated, troops home from the Trojan War, dogged by the wrath of the god Poseidon at every turn. Having been away for twenty years, little does he know what awaits him when he finally makes his way home. These two books are some of the most import books in the literary cannon, having influenced virtually every adventure tale ever told. And yet they are still accessible and immediate and now you can have both in one binding.
Download or read book Iliad Book I written by Homer Homer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Iliad, Book I: With an Essay on Homeric Grammar and Notes The purpose of this work' is to furnish an introduction to the reading of Homer, suited to the wants of persons who have learned the rudiments of Attic Greek, and have made some little progress in construing. To such persons the first difficulty of Homer is the dialect, and accordingly 1 have given up consider able space to an account of the peculiar grammatical forms. This part of the book (pp. 21 - 32) should be carefully read along with, or even before, the text. Some of the sections which treat of syntax (pp. 33 - 48) are probably too difficult to be studied with advantage by a beginner; but I trust that they will be found useful for reference. Those who can read a few lines of Homer without difficulty will find it very advantageous to look at the context of the passages quoted in this part, and endeavour to judge for themselves of the translations given.

Download or read book Imagining Men written by Thomas Van Nortwick and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-08-30 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring models for masculinity as they appear in major works of Greek literature, this book combines literary, historical, and psychological insights to examine how the ancient Greeks understood the meaning of a man's life. The thoughts and actions of Achilles, Odysseus, Oedipus, and other enduring characters from Greek literature reflect the imperatives that the ancient Greeks saw as governing a man's life as he moved from childhood to adult maturity to old age. Because the Greeks believed that men (as opposed to women) were by nature the proper agents of human civilization within the larger order of the universe, examining how the Greeks thought that a man ought to live his life prompts exploration of the place of human life in a world governed by transcendent forces, nature, fate, and the gods. While focusing on the experience of men in ancient Greece, the discussion also offers an analysis of the society in which they lived, addressing questions still vital in our own time, such as how the members of a society should govern themselves, distribute resources, form relationships with others, weigh the needs of the individual against the larger good of the community, and establish right relations with divine forces beyond their knowledge or control. Suggestions for further reading offer the reader the chance to explore the ideas in the book.
