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 评分 评分无论荷马与我们的相距多么遥远,我们可以毫不费力地进入他所描绘的生活。我们之所以能够这样进入,主要是因为,不管荷马描绘的事件与我们多么疏隔,他相信他所说的并且严肃地说出他正加以描绘的东西,因此他从不夸大其辞,也从未失去分寸感。正因为如此,我们不必说阿基琉斯、...
