Homer’s The Iliad Biography By Alberto Manguel

Book Name: Homer’s The Iliad Biography

Writer: Alberto Manguel

Homer (the mind-boggling presence we call ‘Homer’) is a shadowy figure

whose first biographers (or innovators) accepted had been brought into the

a world not long after the Sack ofTroy, customarily dated in 1184 BC.1

Eratosthenes of Cyrene, bookkeeper of Alexandria, who among different

accomplishments precisely determined the circumference of the earth,

expressed in his Chronographiae that Homer was a near contemporary of

Hector and Achilles. For the antiquated Greeks, there was a question about

the truth of Homer. He was essentially the best of writers, a man of fragile

living creature and blood who, in some distant age, had made the chips

away at which all Greek culture was based; the Iliad and the Odyssey as

well as a number of different psalms and sagas: a sonnet on Amphiaraus’

campaign against Thebes, the alleged Small Iliad, the Phocis, the Cercopes,

the Battle of the Frogs and Mice, a large portion of which is currently lost

and many since quite a while ago disparaged.
