"Neste livro, lugares, fatos e pessoas são reais. Não inventei nada", escreve Natalia Ginzburg sobre sua obra mais célebre, Léxico familiar, de 1963. Nos anos 1930, como consequência da criação de leis raciais na Europa, inúmeras famílias foram obrigadas a deixar seu lar, tornando-se apátridas ou sendo literalmente destroçadas pela guerra que se seguiu. É nesse cenário que se inscrevem as memórias de Ginzburg. Nelas, o vocabulário afetivo de um clã de judeus antifascistas se contrapõe a um mundo sombrio, atravessado pelo autoritarismo.

When Emily Wilson’s translation of The Odyssey appeared in 2017―rendering the ancient poem in contemporary language that was “fresh, unpretentious and lean” (Madeline Miller, Washington Post)―critics lauded it as “a revelation” (Susan Chira, New York Times) and “a cultural landmark” (Charlotte Higgins, Guardian) that would forever change how Homer is read in English. Now Wilson has returned with an equally revelatory translation of Homer’s other great epic―the most revered war poem of all time.

The Iliad is one of the two great epics of Homer, and is typically described as one of the greatest war stories of all time, but to say the Iliad is a war story does not begin to describe the emotional sweep of its action and characters: Achilles, Helen, Hector, and other heroes of Greek myth and history in the tenth and final year of the Greek siege of Troy.

¿Estás listo para sumergirte en la obra más leída de todos los tiempos?

The Iliad depicts the terrible and long-drawn out siege of Troy, the quarrel of Achilles and Agamemnon, the interactions between Olympian Gods and humans, remains among one of the classic campaigns and the heroism and treachery of the combatants have been unmatched in song and story. The Odyssey is the first and quite possibly the greatest adventure story of all time. After the long hardships of the Trojan War, Odysseus is on his way home.

The heroic story of the siege of Troy is as enthralling today as it ever was. The Greeks are entering the tenth year of their war with the Trojans, but their armies are fractured and their best warrior Achilles has abandoned the battle on a mission of revenge. Only the death of his best friend Patroclus persuades Achilles to return to battle and confront the Trojan leader Hector in single combat.

La guerre de Troie s'éternise. Pâris le Troyen a ravi Hélène à son époux Ménélas et les Grecs s'acharnent à venger l'honneur de ce dernier. En abandonnant le combat, Achille, furieux après le rapt de sa captive bien-aimée Briséis par le roi Agamemnon, compromet la victoire de son camp. Rien ne saurait apaiser sa colère, hormis la mort héroïque de son ami Patrocle qui le ramène à la raison. Les hommes s'épuisent en vaines querelles, guerres, trahisons et massacres.

La Ilíada es el poema más antiguo de la literatura occidental y está considerada como una de las grandes obras de nuestra tradición. Esta epopeya griega, que, como la Odisea, ha sido atribuida a Homero, es un canto al glorioso y trágico desenlace de la guerra de Troya. En la Antigüedad se consideraba que este poema se basaba en la historia real y que los personajes que aparecían en él eran un modelo de comportamiento y heroísmo.

A towering epic of adventure, cunning, and the longing for home, The Odyssey follows the journey of Odysseus after the fall of Troy. Cursed to wander for ten years across a treacherous sea, the king of Ithaca confronts monsters and gods alike—outwitting the Cyclops, resisting the Sirens’ song, and braving the wrath of Poseidon—while his wife Penelope fends off suitors determined to claim his throne. Rich with suspense, humor, and lyric beauty, Homer’s poem explores what it means to be human: the bonds of family, the cost of pride, the power of endurance, and the pull of memory and home.
