Literature’s grandest evocation of life’s journey, at once an ageless human story and an individual test of moral endurance, Homer’s ancient Greek epic The Odyssey is translated by Robert Fagles with an introduction and notes by Bernard Knox in Penguin Classics.When Robert Fagles’ translation of The Iliad was published in 1990, critics and scholars alike hailed it as a masterpiece.
In 1776, America was founded on the principle that “all men are created equal.” This course examines the Founders’ understanding of equality, natural rights, and civil rights; the quest for justice in America through the Civil War, during Reconstruction, and in the 20th century; and the danger posed to freedom and civil rights today by identity politics.
