About this product

Product Information

Set in the final days of the Trojan War, Homer's poem recounts a formative moment in not only Greek culture, but in that of the West as a whole. W.C. Bryant's verse translation has been acclaimed for over a century, rendering Homer's hexameter into the epic metre of our own "manly and flexible tongue". In Bryant's sublime blank verse, Homer's winged words take flight, never surpassed but in the Greek for grace and power. In his foreword, Ricardo Duchesne makes clear that Iliad is something more than an expression of a generic "human condition"--it is an expression of a distinctly and uniquely Indo-European aristocratic warrior ethos. Moreover, as he shows, Homer's poem represents a watershed moment in the emergence of consciousness itself, laying the foundation for the astonishing cultural efflorescence of classical Greece. As part of Imperium Press' Western Canon series, this definitive edition offers supplementary material placing this work at the centre of our aesthetic, intellectual, and spiritual life--where it belongs. This edition of Iliad includes a map, genealogies, a full glossary of every name in the text, and a bibliography with a view to traditionalist readings.

Reviews
"...Mr. Bryant's translation will assuredly be recognized wherever our mother tongue is read as its best echo of the old Greek epic." - North American Review "nothing can be more clear and fascinating than Mr. Bryant's narrative, conveyed in the true epic manner with regard to directness and nobility of style." - The Atlantic Monthly

I purchased “Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Hardcover by Taschen (EDT)...”, sold by: Great Book Prices Store, on January 27, 2024. The package was left with a shipping partner on Tuesday, January 30, according to the USPS, who received it on February 6. It was delivered to my address on February 7. It arrived securely packaged and the condition of the item was as described. It would be a pleasure to do business with this seller again in the future.
