Course Description

“Season 2” of our Iliad seminar picks up near the end of book 4 with battle proper - between the Greeks and Trojans - (re-)engaged. Though Achilles remains withdrawn, other heroes & heroines, gods & goddesses vie with one another to shape events at Troy. We read aloud and translate approximately 100 lines of the epic each week, while continuing to chip away at the mass of scholarship dedicated to this formidable work.

Prerequisites: At least one year of ancient Greek instruction, preferably Attic or Homeric. If new to the course, please email the instructor before the first session to find out the exact starting point.
