Résumé
A timeless tale of war, pride, and the cost of glory
Homer's Iliad stands as one of the greatest achievements in Western literature. Set during the final weeks of the Trojan War, the epic centres on Achilles, the Greeks' greatest warrior, whose pride and wrath threaten the fate of his comrades. As the armies of Troy and Greece clash, the poem explores the heroism and horror of battle, the bonds of friendship, and the tragic consequences of vengeance.
With gods intervening at every turn and legendary figures such as Hector, Agamemnon, and Patroclus shaping the conflict, The Iliad is both a gripping war story and a profound meditation on mortality, honour, and fate.
Inside the book:
The dramatic conflict between Achilles and Agamemnon, and the complexities of heroism
Scenes of epic battles, duels, and the fall of heroes
Themes of pride, wrath, honour, and the intervention of the gods
Modern translation and Introduction by Prof. Ian Johnston
Ideal for readers drawn to epic poetry, classical history, and the enduring questions of human nature, The Iliad is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the roots of Western storytelling.
