Good intro to the poems - Iliad, Odyssey, Argonautica and Aeneid. There's a bit too much plot summary but it's clearly written and makes sense most of the time. He's also very even-handed and discusses critics with whom he disagrees quite fairly. This is the second edition, brought out in the nineties; there's a third edition with an added chapter on Gilgamesh. I expect that the first edition, from 1966, had less drivel of the following sort than this edition: men seek for immortality because, while women are hooked into eternity by virtue of giving birth, men have only a pitifully evanescent ejaculation to look forward to. I wonder if the dodgy first year Freud and Lacan have been removed in the third edition? I'd like to think so. ( ) inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
