Homer in English by Homer; George Steiner (Editor); Aminadav Dykman (Editor)ISBN: 9780140446210
The Penguin, Homer in English, ed. by George Steiner with the assistance of Aminadav Dykman, offers a survey of translations of Homer into English from ca. 1385-1995, with samples of significant ones. They include both those that strive to translate directly and those that are looser. It is a highly enjoyable sampler of the kinds of things available, although it does give short shrift to women’s interpretations.
