Salt Lake City, UT (PRWeb via Newswire.net) March 30, 2005 -- Oppidan
Library, in its ongoing effort to re-publish its collection of 50,000 classic,
and out-of-print titles has finished its rendition of George Chapman's
translation of the Odyssey by Homer. Free PDF version available for at http://oppidanlibrary.com/chapman.htm
Chapman’s
translation "according to the Greek" of Homer’s epic the Odyssey, originally
published in folio, 1614–16, has become so rare as to be inaccessible to the
general reader, and comparatively unknown to even the more curious student of
old English literature.
Oppidan Library used original folio editions to
compile this rendition of the Odyssey, complete in original syntaxt and
spelling.
