Offering the first full-length commentary on Odyssey I in English since the 1980s, this new edition includes a comprehensive Introduction designed to orient students in their studies of the history and style of Homeric epic, and a facing English translation which aims to reproduce as far as feasible the word order and sound play of the Greek original. Supplemented by a Glossary of Technical Terms and a full vocabulary keyed to the specific ways that words
are used in Odyssey I, it is intended to provide an authoritative and accessible resource for new readers, while close engagement with the Greek and a focus on philological and linguistic analysis in the
commentary yields insights that will be of equal use to advanced scholars.
