Homer
‘Hateful to me as the gates of Hades is that man who hides one thing in his heart and speaks another.’
An epic account of the final year of the Trojan war, The Iliad is thought to be the very first substantial work of European literature, and remains a cornerstone of classical philology to this day.
It is the tenth year of an unrelenting war, the city of Troy under siege. Enraged at the abduction of Helen, queen of Sparta, Greek armies fight in a bloody battle to win her back. But when Commander Agamemnon insults the honour of his greatest soldier, Achilles, the outcome becomes more precarious than ever. Furious and filled with spite, Achilles refuses to fight – a decision that results in devastating consequences for the Greeks and the hateful soldier himself. A powerful exploration of rage, betrayal, love and grief, this ancient epic continues to captivate modern readers, remaining one of the most celebrated works in literary history.
Translated by W. H. D. Rouse.
Homer (born approx. 850 BC) was an ancient Greek poet, famed for his epic poems The Iliad and The Odyssey. His work shaped key aspects of ancient Greek culture – such as the emphasis on heroism, glory and honour – and is still widely read and revered to this very day.
