About This Item
1609 HOMER Odyssey GREEK Trojan War Iliad RARE Geneva Classical Mythology
"Of all creatures that breathe and move upon the earth, nothing is bred that is weaker than man."
― Homer, The Odyssey
An incredibly rare and impressive 17th-century printing of Homer's 'Odyssey'. Like the 'Iliad', this work focuses on Greek mythological heroes, their military conquests, and involvement in the Trojan War.
This very rare, early 17th-century edition of Homer's "Odyssey" was printed in Greek. Published in 1609 in Geneva, this work is exceedingly rare with no examples found for sale.
