Professor Kozlowski Lectures

Iliad - Translation, Style, Structure


Listen Later

Professor Kozlowski takes a deep dive into the style and structure of the Iliad - he examines multiple translations to discuss the priorities and pitfalls of each, summarizes some of the eccentricities of the Greek language, and discusses key features of Homeric epics, including dactylic hexameter, enjambment, epic simile, and other fancy poetry stuff.  He also butchers reading Greek a few times, so there's that.
