Description:
Brown leather binding with maroon title plates, gilt decoration and lettering on the spine. Two volumes.Translated by Samuel Clark. Greek and Latin. Good clean examples of bookmaker's craft. Homer was the reputed author of the Iliad and the Odyssey, the two epic poems that are the foundational works of ancient Greek literature. He is regarded as one of the greatest and most influential writers of all time. The Iliad is set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy by a coalition of Mycenaean Greek kingdoms. It focuses on a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles lasting a few weeks during the last year of the war. The Odyssey focuses on the ten-year journey home of Odysseus, king of Ithaca, after the fall of Troy. Many accounts of Homer's life circulated in classical antiquity, the most widespread being that he was a blind bard from Ionia, a region of central coastal Anatolia in present-day Turkey. Modern scholars consider these accounts legendary. The Homeric… Read More

Thus, for instance, he is said to have used this stone to pitch with at a mark for amusement; and to have thrown the standing stone in Sowerby off an adjoining hill with a spade as he was digging; but I confess, that some of the common people will smile when they relate these stories; they are not quite so credulous now as their great grandfathers were.

Description:
London: Reeves and Turner, 1889. First edition. Cloth. Good. 8.5" by 6.5". None. The first edition of this important fantasy novel from famed textile designer William Morris. The first edition of this work, the precursor of much of present-day fantasy literature.This work from British textile designer, prominent member of the Arts and Crafts movement, and poet William Morris is now viewed as hugely influential to J. R. R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' series. As perhaps the first modern fantasy writer to unite an imaginary world with the element of the supernatural, Morris's novel is a romantically reconstructed portrait of the lives of the Germanic Gothic tribes, written in an archaic style and incorporating a large amount of poetry. Among the numerous parallels with Tolkien's saga, Morris uses Old English-style place names, such as Mirkwood, Germanic personal names such as his character Thiodolf, and dwarven characters depicted as skilled smiths.With a thirty two page publisher's catalogue, dated…
