Reseña del libro "Stories from the Iliad or, the Siege of Troy: Told to the Children (en Inglés)"
A masterful retelling of the story of the siege of Troy, as contained in The Iliad. Written especially for younger readers, this book provides a perfect introduction to the storyline contained in the classic work, starting from the events which led to the ten-year siege of Troy by a coalition of Greek states, and ending with the death of Hector after the climactic final battle which featured the hero warrior Achilles.The reader will meet the famous characters Paris, Helen, Hector, Ajax, and many others, all of whom have passed into the realms of European folklore, even though the events of The Iliad occurred over 2,500 years ago.Along with The Odyssey, The Iliad is among the oldest existing works of Western literature, with the earliest written version dating to around the eighth century BC.It is a vital work for anyone seeking a well-rounded classical education.This version has been completely reset and hand-edited and contains the original illustrations by W. Heath Robinson.ContentsChapter I: The Story of What Led to the Siege of TroyChapter II: How Achilles and Agamemnon Fell OutChapter III: The CouncilChapter IV: The Fight between Paris and MenelausChapter V: How Menelaus Was Wounded; and the Brave Deeds of DiomedesChapter VI: Hector and AndromacheChapter VII: The Fight between Hector and AjaxChapter VIII: The Burning of the Dead; and the Battle of the PlainChapter IX: The Message to AchillesChapter X: The White Horses of RhesusChapter XI: The Fighting on the PlainChapter XII: How Patroclus Fought and DiedChapter XIII: The Rousing of Achilles
