This tragic episode during the siege of Troy, sparked by a quarrel between the leader of the Greek army and its mightiest warrior, Achilles, is played out between mortals and gods, with devastating human consequences. It is a story of many truths, speaking of awesome emotions, the quest for fame and revenge, the plight of women, and the lighthearted laughter of the gods. Above all, it confronts us with war in all its brutality - and with fleeting images of peace, which punctuate the poem as distant memories, startling comparisons, and doomed aspuirations. ..."--Jacket. 600 00 Achilles |c(Mythological character) |vPoetry. 650 0 Trojan War |vPoetry. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008113028 650 0 Epic poetry, Greek |vTranslations into English. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008103294 650 7 Epic poetry, Greek. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00913902 655 7 Poetry. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423828 655 7 Translations. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423791 655 7 Poetry. |2lcgft |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026481 700 1 Verity, Anthony, |etranslator. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2002034791 700 1 Graziosi, Barbara, |ewriter of added commentary. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2001039063 902 nk |bl |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20180914 904 kla |bo |hm |cb |e20180910 914 (OCoLC)ocn961411457 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20221117 |eprocessed |f961411457
