Stop! Homer Time: The Iliad - Episode 0

November 03, 2023  /  Guest User

For this new show-within-a-show, Craig and Andrew will be revisiting Ancient Greece through Emily Wilson's new translation of Homer's The Iliad. We'll be reading it a few books at a time and having a more in-depth chat about it than we do about most books.

This episode is a free teaser for our Stop! Homer Time project. Patreon supporters can get new Stop! Homer Time episodes monthly (Episode 1 is up right now!), but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.

On this episode, you'll hear us discuss the background of the Iliad and Wilson's great-as-usual Translator's Note.

Find out more about how to get these episodes monthly at patreon.com/overduepod.
