Homer for Kids - the ancient Greek poet who wrote the Iliad and the Odyssey Homer To the classical Greeks , Homer's epics played very much the same role that the Bible plays for a lot of people today. People memorized big chunks of Homer's writings in school , and they repeated bits of it in order to convince other people to do something or think something. Homer lived around 700 BC , in the Archaic period in Greece. We don't know where in Greece he lived exactly. People said he was blind , but poets were often said to have been blind, so this might not be true (people say poets are blind because they think that being blind helps the poets to "see" things other people can't, like to know what the gods are doing). When Homer was born , the Greeks had just recently learned how to use the alphabet from the Phoenicians . Homer used the alphabet to write down two long epic poems called the Iliad and the Odyssey . Probably Homer didn't make up these stories, or even the words, himself. Poets or bards had been going around Greece telling these stories for hundreds of years already. But Homer wrote them down, and gave them their final form. Probably he also did a lot of work on them, to make them as good as they are.

52. Homer The Greeks and Romans always thought that the legendary poet Homer was the greatest author ever. However, we know hardly anything about the man or men who http://www.livius.org/ho-hz/homer/homer.html

home index ancient Greece Homer Bust of Homer (British Museum, London) Homer : legendary Greek poet, author of the Iliad and Odyssey The Greeks and Romans always thought that the legendary poet Homer was the greatest author ever. However, we know hardly anything about the man or men who composed the Iliad (a long epic on the wrath of the warrior Achilles, which endangered the Greek expedition to Troy ) or the Odyssey (an equally long poem on the difficult voyage home of Odysseus). At the moment, most scholars agree that these texts were dictated to a writer by a very capable bard, who used older, oral traditions, at the beginning of the eighth century BCE. We do not know to what extent later poets have made additions or changes to the two epics. It is interesting to compare the two poems of Homer with the standard version Babylonian . There's a similarity: a capable poet writes down a poem that had until then been transmitted orally. The main hero of the Iliad There's also a difference. We can not say something meaningful about the contents of the pre-Homeric poetry, and it is very difficult to say whether a Trojan War has ever taken place. The "prehistory" of the , on the other hand, is pretty well-known.

53. Homer's Iliad Learn about Homer s Iliad using this exceptional online study guide with links to multiple resources on CTCWeb. http://ablemedia.com/ctcweb/netshots/homer.htm

Table of Contents Philosophical Background of the Fifth Century B.C. Iliad Genre - Epic Literary works are divided into various categories called genres in accordance with their characteristic form and content. The Iliad belongs to the genre of epic. An epic is a long poem which tells a story involving gods, heroes and heroic exploits. Since the epic is by its very nature lengthy, it tends to be rather loosely organized. Not every episode is absolutely necessary to the main story and digressions are not uncommon. You will notice how different in this regard is the genre of drama, in which every episode tends to be essential to the plot and digressions are inappropriate. The events narrated in epic are drawn from legend rather than invented by the poet and are typically of great significance as in the case of the Iliad , which relates an important incident centering around the greatest hero of the Greeks in the Trojan War, the most celebrated war of Greek legend (see Troy for more information on the Trojan War). The epic poet tends to present his narrative impersonally, not drawing attention to himself except occasionally, as in the first line of the

HOMER WAS NOT A PERSON: HE WAS AN AGE AND A PEOPLE, AND THE LITERATURE THEY PRODUCED HOMERIC TROY AND HOMERIC ITHAKA All the descriptions of Ilios and its environs contained in the Iliad , like all the descriptions of Ithaka and its environs contained in the Odyssey , reflect geographical and archaeological realities to be found along the length of Croatia's Dalmatian Coast, where the town of Gabela on the right bank of the Neretva River corresponds with the celebrated Ilios of the Iliad , and the ruins of Donja Vrucica situated at the far end of the Peljesac Peninsula with the Ithaka of the Odyssey THE TROY KNOWN TO THE GREEKS That the Greeks identified Troy with Hissarlik at the southern entrance to the Dardanelles, and Ithaka with an island by the same name at the mouth of the Gulf of Patras has nothing to do with what the Iliad and the Odyssey have to say about these places, for these identifications were not made until some four centuries after the fact, once Homer had appeared suddenly on the Greek literary scene.
