Episode: Week 51: The Mighty Dead - Why Homer Matters
Description: This week, as I raced to finish Adam Nicolson's book about his deep love of Homer, discovered 20 years ago on a sea voyage, I kept dipping into a recent translation of The Iliad and getting sidetracked. Homer's impact is strong, and here I take a look at how I started loving the Odyssey, but thanks in part to Nicolson, have ended up still more in love with the Iliad. Hosted on Acast.
