Homer's Iliad is one of the oldest works of literature from the Western world. It has been a staple in education among the Greeks and Romans, in the Medieval ages, the Renaissance, and Enlightenment, and in modern liberal education. What has made this story so captivating for so long? Moreover, what can we learn from it across the ages and cultures? (Note: a free PDF translated by Alexander Pope can be found here from Project Gutenberg. The hosts read the first book from Robert Fagles' translation.)
