hmm i dunno
I don’t know many verse translations, most are stacked prose. Pope?
Isn't his in heroics? Would prefer dactyl
Caroline Alexander or Robert gayles for Verse.
Rieu for Prose.
I will look into this.
I think this is the version that I have. I will compare it with the ones suggested above.
I do not know what that is.
I do not remember him saying that it wasn't poetry with literature. Seems like a dumb take. I read preface to plato as well but I still consider homer to be a poet.
>a poet
a rapper
>Caroline Alexander
Underrated.
Lattimore is the only correct answer
Seconding.
>translation
Emily Wilson
lmao
>Emily Wilson
Troon detected. She is fricking garbage and so is the hole between your legs.
>a complicated man
te lawrence translation of the odyssey is really beautiful. it's overwhelming how fricking soulful and honest it is, you may only be able to take it in small doses.
Peter Green got kicked off of list-servs in the 90s by evil roasties and writes nice verse. He also started his translations at 92.
Homeric "verse" isn't poetry or even literature. These books are nothing but a record of oral training manuals on how to build boats and make smithing tongs[1]
1. J.R. Jorjani
>t. Brownoid Iranian who got filtered by book 2
Fitzgerald's Odyssey and Fitzgerald's or gayles Iliad.
Learn Greek
Rodney Merrill for his dactylic hexameter
Pope is the only one worth reading in English.
