about the author
Nearly thirty-two hundied years ago, long before
the Greeks ever had a written language, Homer lived
and told his stories. Hc was a bard-a wandering poet
who kept his country's great legends alive by rcciting
them over and over.
Most people believe that Homer was blind. Perhaps
he was able to compose and remember all his poems
bccause he could see nothing to distract him from his
thoughts. When he arrived at a village, or at the home
of a wcalthy man, all work stopped. A great feast was
held, and everyone sat around afterward to listen to
Homer's stories. The men and womcn, gods and god-
desses he spoke about were part of Greece's legcndary
history. In their own way, his stories becamc one of
the things that held this nation of dty-states together.
Although Homer must have composed many poems
during his hfetime, he is best known for the lliad, his
story of the Trojan War, and the Odyssey, the story of
the wanderings of the hero Odysseus. Together, these
two books are counted among the finest works ever
comp.

评分阿喀琉斯的愤怒 伟大的《伊利亚特》以歌唱阿喀琉斯的愤怒作为开篇,将之视为更残酷的命运起始的标志——“歌唱吧,女神,歌唱帕琉斯之子阿喀琉斯的愤怒,这愤怒给阿开亚人带来了无限的苦难。很多勇敢的灵魂就这样被打入哈迪斯的冥土,许多英雄的尸骨沦为野狗和兀鹰之口。自从...
评分 评分他的本相已不可一望而知,因为他的身体的各个部分由于海浪冲刷而断折、破碎甚至完全毁坏,何况还有贝壳、海草和岩石之类的杂物附着于他,致使他看起来更像一个怪物,全然丧失了原本的模样。 ——《王制》柏拉图 以上引文...
