🟡 Iliad (Alternative Reading) (Full Audiobook) | Homer - Part 2 of 2

Part 2 of 2.This great and terrifying poem about the final weeks of a long war fought between the Greeks and the Trojans before the city of Troy (here rendered into prose by Samuel Butler, himself a major nineteenth century English novelist) is at once violently graphic, emotionally searing and strikingly contemporary in its understanding of the extremities to which rage may drive men, even as they understand full well that they are pursuing their own doom. Nearly three thousand years before the advent of cinema, the author(s) of The Iliad had already mastered many of the tropes the Hollywood blockbuster would later adopt, and so much of the form of this ancient masterpiece already feels oddly familiar.Author: HomerLength: 14 hours 8 minutesGenre: Classics (Greek & Latin Antiquity)Chapters:00:00 - Chapter 134:15 - Chapter 201:22:45 - Chapter 301:46:31 - Chapter 402:15:10 - Chapter 503:02:42 - Chapter 603:30:17 - Chapter 703:55:09 - Chapter 804:24:10 - Chapter 905:02:49 - Chapter 1005:32:22 - Chapter 1106:19:06 - Chapter 1206:44:06 - Chapter 1307:29:58 - Chapter 1407:58:29 - Chapter 1508:38:01 - Chapter 1609:26:57 - Chapter 1710:06:24 - Chapter 1810:40:24 - Chapter 1911:03:35 - Chapter 2011:31:58 - Chapter 2112:05:56 - Chapter 2212:35:42 - Chapter 2313:23:33 - Chapter 24#FullAudiobook #ClassicAudiobook #ClassicLiterature #FreeAudiobook #PublicDomain This audiobook recording is from LibriVox.org.All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain.Text and narration are public domain.Narration provided by LibriVox volunteers.Curated, packaged, and distributed by 🟡 Free Audiobook Library.Discover more free classic audiobooks at https://thefreeaudiobooklibrary.com.Support the Free Audiobook Library and help us release more audiobooks at https://patreon.com/freeaudiobooklibrary.
