The Twenty-Second Book of the Iliad by Homer Homer Pdf

Excerpt from The Twenty-Second Book of the Iliad: With Critical Notes These mispronunciations constituted, as a matter of course, real and serious faults, and would have sounded ridiculous in a poem meant to be read. But we know from Homer's account of Demodocos that in his day epic poems - or ballads - were not read or recited, but sung or chanted; and in singing or chanting the jarring effect of wrong accentuation was, in all probability, to a great extent disguised. In later times, however, the case was altered. At least as early as the seventh century the Homeric poems became, as it were, text books in the schools, from which reading and writing were taught; and in reading the faults in accentuation inevitably disclosed themselves and became offensive. It was then that, in order to remedy matters, recourse was had (whether con sciously or unconsciously we cannot tell; probably the latter) to several expedients whereby other forms could be given to the offending words. These forms being new, a new accentua tion in accordance with the exigencies of the rhythm would be given to the words so produced with comparativelv little linguistic shock.

Homer: Iliad Book 22 by Homer Pdf

Book XXII recounts the climax of the Iliad: the fatal encounter between the main defender of Troy and the greatest warrior of the Greeks, which results in the death of Hector and Achilles' revenge for the death of his friend Patroclus. At the same time it adumbrates Achilles' own death and the fall of Troy. This edition will help students and scholars better appreciate this key part of the epic poem. The introduction summarises central debates in Homeric scholarship, such as the circumstances of composition and the literary interpretation of an oral poem, and offers synoptic discussions of the structure of the Iliad, the role of the narrator, similes and epithets. There is a separate section on language, which provides a compact list of the most frequent Homeric characteristics. The commentary offers up-to-date linguistic guidance, and elucidates narrative techniques, typical elements and central themes.

The Shield of Achilles by W. H. Auden Pdf

"The first critical edition of W. H. Auden's poetry collection The Shield of Achilles, which won the 1956 National Book Award in Poetry, this book will include the complete text of Auden's award-winning volume The Shield of Achilles, accompanied critical commentary by Alan Jacobs: a preface to provide historical and publishing context; a longer introduction to orient the reader to the poems themselves; and detailed notes on words or passages in need of clarification for contemporary readers. Jacobs, who has edited two previous critical editions of Auden's poetry, argues that this was the most important single collection of poems Auden published, and also the most coherent of his collections. The two poetic sequences, "Bucolics" and "Horae Canonicae," bookend a remarkable set of lyrics, with "The Shield of Achilles" itself at the heart. One of Auden's last long poems, it refers to moment in The Iliad in which Thetis, mother of Achilles, asks Hephaestus to forge a shield for her son. Auden re-imagines how the shield of Achilles would look in the modern age, when the rules of war and the role of the hero have been rewritten. While the volume was widely praised, it is now out of print (although the title poem is included in larger collections of Auden's poetry). A critical edition allows readers to better understand and appreciate one of Auden's most important later poetic works, written in what Jacobs describes as "a poetic idiom that differs quite significantly from what anyone else at the time was doing. . . . it is, in a vital sense, public poetry and it can be enjoyed, understood, and profited from. This edition is meant to make that enjoyment, understanding, and profit easier of access.""--
