  • Homer, the legendary ancient Greek poet traditionally credited with composing the Iliad and the Odyssey, is believed to have lived between the 12th and 8th centuries BCE, though little is known about his life, and some scholars debate whether he was a single individual or a name representing a tradition of oral poetry. The Iliad recounts the story of the Trojan War, focusing on the hero Achilles and themes of rage, honor, and fate, while the Odyssey follows Odysseus’ long journey home, exploring perseverance, cunning, and the human struggle against divine and mortal challenges. Both epics, written in dactylic hexameter, are foundational to Western literature and have profoundly influenced culture, art, and thought for millennia, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire adaptations and scholarly exploration today.

The Odyssey follows the Greek hero Odysseus’ long and perilous journey home to Ithaca after the fall of Troy. Over the course of ten years, Odysseus faces numerous challenges, including encounters with the Cyclops Polyphemus, the enchantress Circe, the Sirens, and the sea monster Scylla. Meanwhile, back in Ithaca, his wife Penelope and son Telemachus struggle against suitors vying for Penelope’s hand and Odysseus’ throne. With the help of the goddess Athena, Odysseus eventually returns home, defeats the suitors, and reunites with his family. The Odyssey emphasizes themes of cunning, perseverance, loyalty, and the power of human ingenuity over brute strength.
