About the Author
Homer is the legendary ancient Greek poet traditionally credited with composing The Iliad and The Odyssey, two monumental works that shaped Western literature. Although little is known about his life, his epics have been admired for centuries fortheir grandeur, emotional depth, and insight into human nature. His influence continues to resonate in literature, philosophy, and art across the world. About the Translator: Samuel Butler (1835–1902) is best known for his highly readable and provocative translations of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey. Writing in clear, modern prose, he rejected overly literal, scholarly renderings in favour of narrative flow and directness. Butler believed Homer should sound like a living storyteller, not a museum piece. His translations remain valued for their accessibility, confidence, and distinctive voice, bringing the epic poems closer to the everyday reader.
