Book Description
In his Preface to the Iliad, Alexander Pope declared that in his poetic invention Homer possessed unequalled fire and rapture. Pope spent his formative years as a poet translating Homer, beginning with the Iliad, and in his translation he successfully found a style that answers the sublimity and grace of Homer. Steven Shankman provides scholarly critical apparatus for this Penguin English Poets edition, which is based on the 1743 edition that contains the poet's final revisions. Pope's Preface and the three indexes are also included. Most importantly, this edition makes available for the first time in paperback Pope's notes in their entirety, enabling us to observe one poetic genius illuminate the work of another.

Book Description
This volume presents a selection from Pope's celebrated translation of Homer's Iliad, edited and arranged so as to concentrate on the central core of the story and thus to be readable as a continuous narrative. Also included is a section of the best of Pope's notes to his own translation;these illuminate his principles as a translator and transmit his intelligent and penetrating assessments of the Iliad's poetic qualities. It will enable students of English literature to sample a neglected poem written by Pope at the height of his powers, once thought to contain some of his finest writing and deepest poetic thoughts about Man and Nature. Students of the Classics, on the other hand, will be able to study in detail the response of one of its most distinguished admirers to the greatest poem of ancient Greece. Felicity Rosslyn's introduction discusses the main themes of the poem and establishes Pope's unique qualifications as a translator of Homer.
