Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Book and dust jacket in good condition. Pages clean and unmarked. Appears unread. This is the long-awaited work on Homer's Odyssey by one of our foremost teachers and scholars of the classics--John H. Finley, Jr. Already, generations of students at Harvard have benefited from his knowledge and understanding of Homer's words and world. Now his thoughts on the Odyssey are woven together in this remarkable volume. Finley begins by arguing the unity of design in the Odyssey, and shows the connection between the actions of three main characters: Telemachus' maturity brings Penelope to her long-delayed decision for remarriage, which, by producing the bow as marriage-test, gives the unknown Odysseus his means of success against the suitors. Finley also suggests that the poem is a kind of half-divine comedy. About an older man's glad return, it contrasts to the Iliad's story of young man's death far from home. It is a comedy to the Iliad's tragedy and, like Shakespeare's Tempest, it brings the absent king to knowledge which, though initially unwelcome, proves his and others' happiness. Throughout his book, Finley applies a lifetime's learning to a work that is universally recognized as one of the highest achievements of our civilization. At a time when Homer is in danger of being swallowed by specialists, it is important to recognize and uphold the poet's basic concern for life and myth and legend. Such sympathy combined with knowledge is Finley's fine achievement.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (SD, Houghton Mifflin: 'from circa1891 to circa 1953 same date (SD) on title page and copyright page with no later printings' indicates a first edition). You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. Not at all bad for a book published in 1929. There isn't any conspicuous soiling. The spine is tanned. There are small losses at and around the top edge of the spine, a tiny one at the bottom edge of the spine and at the bottom edge of the front cover. The flaps are in quite solid shape, no soiling. There is a small, thin closed tear off the top edge of the front flap, also a teeny tiny loss in two spots there. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. I placed it in a fitted protective cover when I purchased the book years ago. You can see the book in the last couple of photos. The label on the spine is in very good shape. There is some tanning over the original green color where the jacket has its losses, allowing the sun to have done its thing. The covers are quite clean with the exception of two speck-sized spots just below the rear top edge. The cover edges and corners are in surprisingly excellent condition, meaning there is no rubbing. The green color of the two top cover edges is dulled. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well, absolutely no binding issues. The middle page edge is deckled or rough-cut. Actually it's more of a smooth rough-cut with only a few pages showing a slight bit of roughness, a couple of tiny slivers of loss. The pages are exceptionally clean. The book was either read very carefully or not at all. I don't see any soiling anywhere, not even on the white inside covers and end papers. I'm also not finding any creasing. And there are no markings and no attachments. Finally, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. …
