The Complete Works of Homer (75 books)

Pour le monde antique, l'épopée d’Homère est le texte fondateur, la source de toute culture. Récit de voyages et conte merveilleux, l’Odyssée chante les errances d’Ulysse en même temps que l’endurance sublime d’un homme qui, sans cesse, se cache, invente, se transforme, s’adapte pour survivre.

Odyssée. Chants I à VII; Tome 1

This poem mainly centers on the Greek hero Odysseus (or Ulysses, as he was known in Roman myths) and his long journey home following the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War.[2] In his absence, it is assumed he has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, called Proci, competing for Penelope's hand in marriage.

L'Iliade d'Homère, Avec des Remarques, Vol. 2: Précédée de Réflexions sur Homère Et sur la Traduction des Poëtes

Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns

driven time and again off course, once he had plundered

the hallowed heights of Troy.

So begins Robert Fagles' magnificent translation of the Odyssey, which Jasper Griffin in The New York Times Review of Books hails as "a distinguished achievement."

If the Iliad is the world's greatest war epic, then the Odyssey is literature's grandest evocation of everyman's journey though life. Odysseus' reliance on his wit and wiliness for survival in his encounters with divine and natural forces, during his ten-year voyage home to Ithaca after the Trojan War, is at once a timeless human story and an individual test of moral endurance. 

In the myths and legends that are retold here, Fagles has captured the energy and poetry of Homer's original in a bold, contemporary idiom, and given us an Odyssey to read aloud, to savor, and to treasure for its sheer lyrical mastery.

The Odyssey

L'Odyssée

Dans la petite île d'Ithaque, Pénélope et son fils Télémaque attendent Ulysse, leur époux et père. Voilà vingt ans qu'il est parti pour Troie et qu'ils sont sans nouvelles de lui. De l'autre côté des mers, Ulysse a pris le chemin du retour depuis longtemps déjà. Mais les tempêtes, les monstres, les géants, les dieux parfois, l'arrêtent ou le détournent de sa route. Premier grand voyageur, Ulysse découvre l'Inconnu où naissent les rêves et les peurs des hommes depuis la nuit des temps ; l'Odyssée nous dit cette aventure au terme de laquelle le héros retrouve enfin, aux côtés de Pénélope, "la joie du lit ancien".
