This course studies Homer's Iliad, the single most important text of the Greek literary canon. The aim is to acquire fluency in Homeric Greek; to become familiar with the distinctive form and main themes of the Iliad; to gain a good grasp of Homeric scholarship; to place the Iliad within the wider context of early Greek poetry and Mediterranean storytelling more broadly; and to trace the more important stages of the poem's ancient reception.
