HOMER
THE ILIAD
The Greek text with a line-for-line translation on the same page
- For students who wish to study the Greek in detail but have
limited time: with grammatical introduction, synopsis & notes.
- For the general reader, an English translation that’s as near
as you can get to the excitement of reading Homer in the original.
“I enjoyed reading this translation. It maintains a good balance between closeness to the Greek and natural and readable English … I am very impressed by the attractive appearance of the work.”
James Diggle, Emeritus Professor of Greek and Latin, Cambridge University
“I’ve read through sample chunks with considerable enjoyment: the translation is both literal (so accurate) and stylish (so very readable).”
Stephen Anderson, Rodewald Lector in Classical Languages, New College, Oxford
“I think this text/translation idea is excellent and will be very useful, particularly because the translation is so close to the Greek, and because the English lines correspond to the Greek lines”.
Andrew Maynard, Emeritus Head of Classics, Eton College
