About this product

Product Information

More than 3,000 years after the fall of Troy, here at last is a rendition of the Homeric epic that everybody can understand and appreciate. The world can't hear Homer speak his own words, but Stanley Lombardo is the next best thing. Lombardo's insightful rendition takes advantage of the rhythms and other poetic resources of everyday speech to provide a cinematic and performance quality to the poetry.

Reviews
Great poetry is best heard, not just read, and these two CD sets of Homer's epic works are exemplars of the spoken word. Stanley Lombardo, professor of classics at the University of Kansas, is among the leading scholars of Homer, and here reads his own translation of the Iliad and the Odyssey in their entirety. Each recorded set includes a booklet with a map of Homer's storied world; synopses of each book in the work, which are read by actress Susan Sarandon; and a glossary of personal and place names. Lombardo's voice is wonderfully resonant and expressive­-he is also a performer-and together with the original music, beautifully evokes the world of the Trojan War and Odysseus' journey home. These productions from Parmenides Publishing, which specializes in Western philosophy, are a class act"". - Bloomsbury Review
