La Odisea se llama asi por las fantasticas e increíbles desventuras de Odiseo ocurridas entre su partida de los campos troyanos y su arribo en Itaca 33 años después. Junto con la Illiada, La Odisea constituye una de las piedras angulares de la cultura occidental. El relato que hace Homero de las aventuras de Odiseo en su camino de regreso desde Troya hasta su patria, Ítaca, ha sido desde siempre una mina inagotable de motivos e imágenes para escritores y artistas.

L'avaro e superbo tiranno di Sardis, si addormenta ubriaco sulle rive del fiume Pattolo. Gli appaiono durante una fresca notte d'estate una donna ragno, una civetta dagli occhi azzurri, un satiro danzante e una ninfa amorosa. Quest'ultima porta al collo una collana anticamente forgiata dal dio Vulcano per la moglie Venere, un gioiello che possiede il potere d'innamorare chiunque si trovi intorno a chi lo indossa. Il re si lascia irretire nell'incantesimo d'amore ma non rinuncia all'ossessione della sua vita: l'oro, il potere, la ricchezza.

"Questa è la storia di un amore vissuto in mare, tra le onde, il vento ed il sole sulla pelle. Un amore che non chiese di sbocciare. Un amore che vi voglio raccontare..." È così che inizia la raccolta di poesie che descrive una storia d'amore nata per caso su di una spiaggia, tra due persone provenienti da due mondi diversi e nonostante le loro diversità questo amore perdurerà nel tempo nonostante tutto.

The Iliad stands as the blazing cornerstone of all Western storytelling, an ancient epic that captures the violent splendor, tragic heroism, and unbearable human cost of the Trojan War. Attributed to Homer but shaped by generations of oral poets, it plunges listeners directly into the final, furious weeks of a ten-year siege, where gods interfere in mortal affairs, armies clash on the dusty plains beneath Troy’s towering walls, and the fate of empires turns on the choices of men driven by pride, rage, love, and grief.

The terrible and long-drawn out siege of Troy, the quarrel of Achilles and Agamemnon, the interactions between Olympian Gods and humans, remains among one of the classic campaigns and the heroism and treachery of the combatants have been unmatched in song and story. It is a literal translation, but prose, and therefore so much easier to understand! This is certainly the version for those who want to know what Homer is about.
