The six-volume Commentary on Homer’s Iliad prepared under the General Editorship of Professor G. S. Kirk is complete with the publication of this volume. It opens with two introductory chapters: the first on Homeric diction, the second on the contributions that comparative studies have made to seeing the Homeric epics in sharper perspective. In the commentary Dr. Hainsworth confronts the serious problems posed by the ninth, tenth and twelfth books of the Iliad. The Greek text is not included.

In 2002, the University of Michigan Press published Rodney Merrill’s translation of Homer’s Odyssey, an interpretation of the classic that was unique in employing the meter of Homer’s original. Praising Merrill’s translation of the Odyssey, Gregory Nagy of Harvard wrote, "Merrill’s fine ear for the sound of ancient Greek makes the experience of reading his Homer the nearest thing in English to actually hearing Homer. The translator’s English renders most faithfully the poet’s ancient Greek---not only the words and meaning but even the voice."Merrill ha

So great is the impact of ancient Greek literature on Western culture that even people who have never read Homer’s Iliad or The Odyssey know a lot about them.

Ever since these oral poems were committed to paper (probably in the 8th century B.C.E.), people have been translating them. The version of Iliad translated by Stanley Lombardo is a brave departure from previous translations; Lombardo at
