Description

1760 Homer ILIAD Greek Mythology English Alexander Pope Trojan War Illustrated

“Hateful to me as the gates of Hades is that man who hides one thing in his heart and speaks another.”

― Homer, The Iliad

A rare 18th-century edition of Homer, the legendary Greek poet responsible for the mythological epic poems the ‘Iliad’ and the ‘Odyssey. These two poems focus on Greek mythological heroes, their military conquests, and involvement in the Trojan War. Each of these titles have been printed and reprinted countless times.

This edition of the ‘Iliad’ was translated into English by Alexander Pope with added notes of William Broome, as well as a ‘life of Homer’ by Parnell... According to Samuel Johnson, the Pope translation is

‘the greatest translation ever achieved in English or in any other language!’ (Wills)
