Homer's classic poem features Odysseus's encounters w/ the beautiful Calypso; the queenly but wily Circe; the Lotus-eaters, who fed his men their memory-stealing drug; the man-eating, one-eyed Cyclops; the Laestrygonian giants; the souls of the dead in Hades; the beguiling sirens; the treacherous Scylla & Charybdis. Here, too, is the hero's faithful wife, Penelope, weaving a shroud by day & unraveling it by night, in order to thwart the numerous suitors attempting to take Odysseus's place. The works attributed to Homer include the two oldest & greatest European epic poems, the "Odyssey" & the "Iliad". These texts have long stood in the Loeb Classical Library w/ a faithful & literate prose translation by A.T. Murray. George Dimock has brought the Loeb's "Odyssey" up to date w/ a rendering that retains Murray's admirable style but is worded for today's readers. The two-volume edition includes a new introduction, notes, & index. * The LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY is the only existing series of books, which, through original text & facing English translations, gives access to all that is important in Greek & Latin literature. * SHIPPING: We carefully wrap, label & custom-package this Excellent Loeb Classic for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL w/ rates for expedited domestic delivery & international shipment available upon request.

In early manhood an admirer of Socrates, he later founded the famous school of philosophy in the grove Academus. Much else recorded of his life is uncertain; that he left Athens for a time after Socrates' execution is probable; that later he went to Cyrene, Egypt, & Sicily is possible; that he was wealthy is likely; that he was critical of 'advanced' democracy is obvious. He lived to be 80 years old. Linguistic tests including those of computer science still try to establish the order of his extant philosophical dialogs, written in splendid prose & revealing Socrates' mind fused w/ Plato's thought.In "Laches", "Charmides", & "Lysis", Socrates & others discuss separate ethical conceptions. "Protagoras", "Ion", & "Meno" discuss whether righteousness can be taught. In "Gorgias", Socrates is estranged from his city's thought, & his fate is impending. The "Apology" (not a dialogue), "Crito", "Euthyphro" & the unforgettable "Phaedo" relate the trial & death of Socrates & propound the immortality of the soul. In the famous "Symposium" & "Phaedrus", written when Socrates was still alive, we find the origin & meaning of love. "Cratylus" discusses the nature of language. The great masterpiece in 10 books, the "Republic", concerns righteousness (& involves education, equality of the sexes, the structure of society, & abolition of slavery). Of the 6 so-called dialectical dialogues "Euthydemus" deals w/ philosophy; metaphysical "Parmenides" is about general concepts & absolute being; "Theaetetus" reasons about the theory of knowledge. Of its sequels, "Sophist" deals w/ not-being; "Politicus" w/ good & bad statesmanship & governments; "Philebus" w/ what is good. The "Timaeus" seeks the origin of the visible universe out of abstract geometrical elements. The unfinished "Critias" treats of lost Atlantis. Unfinished also is Plato's last work of the 12 books of "Laws" (Socrates is absent from it), a critical discussion of principles of law which Plato thought the Greeks might accept. Of a dozen other extant dialogs & also some letters a few may be genuine. Six other extant dialogs have been rejected as spurious since ancient times. The Loeb Classical Library edition of Plato is in twelve volumes. * The LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY is the only existing series of books, which, through original text & facing English translations, gives access to all that is important in Greek & Latin literature. * SHIPPING: We carefully wrap, label & custom-package this Excellent Loeb Classic for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL w/ rates for expedited domestic delivery & international shipment available upon request.
