The Iliad (подарочное издание)

2003 y.
Publisher: CRW Publishing Limited
Description: Стильно оформленное подарочное издание в суперобложке, с трехсторонним золотым обрезом и шелковым ляссе. The Iliad narrates the events of the siege of Troy, prompted by Greek outrage at the abduction by Paris of Helen from her Greek husband. It describes the anger of Achilles which results in the death of Patroclus, and Achilles` quest for brutal vengeance on Hector. Even though it was composed more than two thousand years ago The Iliad remains both powerful and enthralling. Формат: 10 см x 15,5 см. [detailed...]

Bruce Louden
The Iliad: Structure, Myth, and Meaning

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Extending his distinctive analysis of Homeric epic to the Iliad, Bruce Louden, author of The `Odyssey`: Structure, Narration, and Meaning, again presents new approaches to understanding the themes and story of the poem. In this thought-provoking study, he demonstrates how repeated narrative motifs argue for an expanded understanding of the structure of epic poetry. First identifying the `subgenres` of myth within the poem, he then reads these against related mythologies of the Near East, developing a context in which the poem can be more accurately interpreted. Louden begins by focusing on the ways in which the Iliad`s three movements correspond with and comment on each other. He offers original interpretations of many episodes, notably in books 3 and 7, and makes new arguments about some well-known controversies (e.g., the duals in book 9), the Iliad`s use of parody, the function of theomachy, and the prefiguring of Hektor as a sacrificial victim in books 3 and 6. The second… [detailed...]

Homer
The Iliad: Volume II, Books 13-24

1925 y.
Publisher: Loeb Classical Library
Description: Here is a new Loeb Classical Library edition of Homer`s stirring heroic account of the Trojan war and its passions. The eloquent and dramatic epic poem captures the terrible anger of Achilles, `the best of the Achaeans,` over a grave insult to his personal honor and relates its tragic result-a chain of consequences that proves devastating for the Greek forces besieging Troy, for noble Trojans, and for Achilles himself. The poet gives us compelling characterizations of his protagonists as well as a remarkable study of the heroic code in antiquity. The works attributed to Homer include the two oldest and greatest European epic poems, the Odyssey and the Iliad. These have been published in the Loeb Classical Library for three-quarters of a century, the Greek text facing a faithful and literate prose translation by A. T. Murray. William F. Wyatt now brings the Loeb`s Iliad up to date, with a rendering that retains Murray`s admirable style but is written for today`s readers. [detailed...]

Description: Anger be now your song, immortal one, Akhilleus` anger, doomed and ruinous, that caused the Akhaians loss on bitter loss and crowded brave souls into the undergloom, leaving so many dead men-carrion for dogs and birds, and the will of Zeus was done. -Lines 1-6 Since it was first published more than twenty-five years ago, Robert Fitzgerald`s prizewinning translation of Homer`s battle epic has become a classic in its own right: a standard against which all other versions of The Iliad are compared. Fitzgerald`s work is accessible, ironic, faithful, written in a swift vernacular blank verse that `makes Homer live as never before` ( Library Journal ). This edition includes a new foreword by Andrew Ford. [detailed...]

Homer
The Iliad

2003 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: The product of more than a decade`s continuous work (1598-1611), Chapman`s translation of Homer`s great poem of war is a magnificent testimony to the power of the `Iliad`. In muscular, onward-rolling verse Chapman retells the story of Achilles, the great warrior, and his terrible wrath before the walls of besieged Troy, and the destruction it wreaks on both Greeks and Trojans. Chapman regarded the translation of this epic, and of Homer`s `Odyssey` (also available in Wordsworth Editions) as his life`s work, and dedicated himself to capturing the `soul` of the poem. Swinburne praised the resulting translation for its `romantic and sometimes barbaric grandeur, its freshness, strength, and inexhaustible fire`, qualities that reflect the grandeur, fire and brutality of the original poem. This new edition includes critical introduction and extensive notes, rendering Chapman`s extraordinary poetic masterpiece accessible tо modern readers. Издание на английском языке. [detailed...]

FranCoise Mallet-Joris
The Illusionist

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Bored and lonely, 15-year-old HA©lA?ne decides to pay a visit to her father’s mistress. Within days, she is captivated by Tamara, a Russian A©migrA© whose arts of enchantment include lingering kisses, sudden dismissals, and savage, rapturous reunions. As long as she submits to Tamara, HA©lA?ne is permitted to stay near her: reading forbidden novels, meeting Tamara’s bohemian friends, and learning more “refinements of depravity” than the gossiping matrons of her provincial French town could imagine existed. Flemish writer FranA§oise Mallet-Joris was 20 years old in 1951 when her first novel, Le Rempart des Beguines — published in English as The Illusionist — created a sensation in France. This contemplative, beautifully written book, with its dark undercurrents of desire, has its origins in Madame Bovary and the novels of Colette, and was a precursor to FranA§oise Sagan’s similarly themed Bonjour Tristesse. … [detailed...]
