Homer is the Ancient Greek epic poet, the greatest of all poets of all ages, with whom the artistic Greek and European literature begins!
A characteristic of Homer's art is that his epics have a beginning, middle, and end, and with successive episodes, he keeps the listener's interest unwavering until the end. Admiration for Homer's epics has remained undiminished from antiquity to our days, which is why they are taught in all schools in Europe, as the greatest poet and educator of the ages. The Homeric epics have been translated into all the languages of the world.
The Odyssey is the epic of 12,110 verses, and undoubtedly, it is included among the most widely read texts, exerting a timeless and enormous influence on literature, poetry, and art.
The ten-year wandering of the resourceful Odysseus after the Trojan War, the faithful Penelope who waited for him, and his son, Telemachus, who searched for him, have deeply marked our cultural consciousness. Ingenuity, the role of fate, adventure, journey, geographical element, nostalgia, trials, companionship, suitors, and the search for Ithaca are inherent in the timeless work of the Odyssey.
The series, which includes the ancient text, modern Greek translation, and commentary, consists of 6 volumes and includes the entire Odyssey!
