Description

There’s no-one quite like Homer. And this online class is for anyone who loves the Odyssey and the Iliad. We are a group of Homer fans who enjoy exploring the language but also discussing the wider cultural context of the poems.

Of course, there’s nothing quite like reading the Homeric epics in the original Greek. You are welcome to join us whether you have never translated Homer before and would like to see how it’s done, or you already have some experience with translation of unadapted Greek.

We will continue reading Odyssey book 4 and when we return we will be looking at lines 454-504. Suggested edition: Homer, Odyssey I-XII, edited with Introduction and Notes by W.B. Stanford (ISBN 978-1853995026).

The group will meet on Tuesdays from 16:00-17:00 (UK time) for 11 weeks on 17th September, 24th September, 1st October, 8th October, 15th October, 22nd October, half-term on 29th October (no class), 5th November, 12th November, 19th November, 26th November and 3rd December.
Tutor: Helen McVeigh
