This study group will do a close reading and discussion of "The Iliad", using the Robert Fagles translation. We will spend some time looking at the forms and devices of epic poetry, but our main focus will be on Homer's characters and what they tell us about life, death, and war.

Ms. Scott was a lecturer in Classics and Great Books at the University of Michigan and taught Latin and English literature at Community High School.
