In a series of dramatic set pieces, it follows the story of the humiliation of Achilleus at the hands of Agamemnon and his slaying of Hektor: a barbarous act with repercussions that ultimately determine the fate of Troy. The Iliad not only paints an intimate picture of individual experience, but also offers a universal perspective in which human loss and suffering are set against a vast and unpitying divine background where fickle, quarrelsome gods decide the fate of men.Translated with an Introduction by Martin HammondCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Poetry & DramaAuthor: HomerRelease Year: 1987 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
