The Iliad - Homer - Alexander Pope translation
Book II - Read by Nick Gisburne
Full Text:
http://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/h/homer/h8ip/book2.html
This is by far the most difficult part of The Iliad to read aloud because there are so many names with difficult pronunciations. All I can say is, I did as much research as I could, spending several soild days trying to work out the correct way to say each of the names, and then a further two days of practice, repeating them within the context of the poem over and over until they sounded as natural as possible. And that was all before I started recording.
I wanted this part of the poem to be easy on the ear because in reality its second half is largely a long, long list of names and places. I did the best I could with what I had to work with, and if you find that some of the names aren't correctly pronounced, well you probably know much more about Ancient Greek than I.
With this list of names out of the way now, I can promise you there will be much more action in future books!

After the death of the Borgia pope, Alexander VI (1492 – 1503), and upon the death of Pius III who reigned in 1503 for less than a month, the new pope, Julius II, pursued military solutions to a host of problems left to him by Alexander’s attempt to create a Borgia dynasty. Julius led papal armies in a variety of military campaigns earning the name of The Warrior Pope. He proved to be an energetic defender of the Papal States and led his military campaigns in full battle dress. His nickname was Julius the Terrible. It was Pope Julius who first established a permanent corps of the Pontifical Swiss Guard at the Vatican, and granted them the title of Defenders of the Church’s Freedom.
The Swiss Guard has varied in size over the years. Its most significant, hostile engagement was on May 6, 1527 when 147 of the 189 Guards lost their lives during the Sack of Rome in order to allow Clement VII to escape escorted by the other forty guards. They have served popes since the 16th century, operating mostly as a ceremonial escort to the pope. Swiss guardsmen must be Catholic males between the ages of nineteen and thirty years of age and at least 5′ 9″ tall. They must have the recommendation of their local parish and have served in a basic military school in Switzerland. They serve for a period of two years.
The uniform of the Swiss Guard, of which there are two styles in the Collection, is a Renaissance style weighing eight pounds. Its colors are those of the Medici coat of arms in honor of Clement VII. It is often thought that Michelangelo designed the uniform. He did not.
Service includes physical training, drills and instruction in combat. Enrollment into the Swiss Guard takes place on May 6th each year in honor of the day in 1527 when their forebears died defending Pope Clement VII.

The Cathedral of St Martin is a church in Lucca, Italy. It was begun in 1063 by Bishop Anselm (later Pope Alexander II). Of the original structure, the great apse with its tall columnar arcades and the fine campanile remain. The nave and transepts of the cathedral were rebuilt in the Gothic style in the 14th century, while the west front was begun in 1204 by Guido Bigarelli of Como, and consists of a vast portico of three magnificent arches, and above them three ranges of open galleries adorned with sculptures. In the nave a small octagonal temple or chapel shrine contains the most precious relic in Lucca, the Volto Santo di Lucca or Sacred Countenance. This cedar-wood crucifix and image of Christ, according to the legend, was carved by his contemporary Nicodemus, and miraculously conveyed to Lucca in 782. Christ is clothed in the colobium, a long sleeveless garment. The chapel was built in 1484 by Matteo Civitali, the most famous Luccan sculptor of the early Renaissance. The tomb of Ilaria del Carretto by Jacopo della Quercia of Siena, the earliest of his extant works was commissioned by her husband, the lord of Lucca, Paolo Guinigi, in 1406. Additionally the cathedral contains Domenico Ghirlandaio's Madonna and Child with Saints Peter, Clement, Paul and Sebastian; Federico Zuccari's Adoration of the Magi, Jacopo Tintoretto's Last Supper, and finally Fra Bartolomeo's Madonna and Child (1509). There is a legend to explain why all the columns of the façade are different. According to the tale, when they were going to decorate it, the inhabitants of Lucca announced a contest for the best column. Every artist made a column, but then the inhabitants of Lucca decided to take them all, without paying the artists and used all the columns. The labyrinth or maze is embedded in the right pier of the portico and is believed to date from the 12th or 13th century. Its importance is that it may well pre-date the famous Chartres maze, yet is of the Chartres pattern that became a standard for mazes. The rustic incised Latin inscription refers to ancient pagan mythology: "This is the labyrinth built by Dedalus of Crete; all who entered therein were lost, save Theseus, thanks to Ariadne's thread" (HIC QUEM CRETICUS EDIT. DAEDALUS EST LABERINTHUS . DE QUO NULLUS VADERE . QUIVIT QUI FUIT INTUS . NI THESEUS GRATIS ADRIANE . STAMINE JUTUS").

Anna Yaroslavna [Анна Ярославна; Jaroslavna], b 1024/25 or 1032 in Kyiv, d after 1075. Daughter of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise of Kyiv and Ingegerd, daughter of King Olof Skötkunung of Sweden; the third wife of King Henry I of France; and sister-in-law of kings Andrew I of Hungary and Harald III of Norway. The sonless, twice-widowed Henry arranged to marry Anna to secure Yaroslav's support against the Holy Roman Empire, to obtain a male heir, and to comply with the church's regulations forbidding marriage with close cousins. Their marriage took place at the Reims Cathedral on 19 May 1051, and the first of their three sons, later King Philip I, was born in 1052. The name ‘Philip’ was very rare in France prior to that time, and was likely inspired by Saint Philip who converted Scythia, an area identified with Kyivan Rus’ in the Middle Ages. After Henry's death in 1060, Anna (Anne) ruled France as co-regent while Philip was a child. In 1061 she married Count Raoul III of Valois, resulting in their excommunication by Pope Alexander II because Raoul already had a wife. After Raoul’s death in 1074, Anna returned to Philip’s court. The place and date of her death are unknown.
Anna's signature in Cyrillic on a French royal charter from the 1060s is the only known example of a Capetian queen's signature on parchment and the only known (pre-13th century) signature of a member of the Riurykide dynasty. It is the oldest extant example of Old Ukrainian handwriting. A medieval fresco depicting her and her mother and two sisters is preserved in Kyiv’s Saint Sophia Cathedral, and two 20th-century full-figure sculptures of Anna are found in Senlis near Paris in the church of Saint Vincent's Monastery, which she had founded.

In this lesson, we take a look at Alexander Pope's biography and its impact on his life, and then we'll look at epistolary literature and blank verse in preparation for a reading of Pope's Essay on Man, Epistle 1.
Below is the outline of the slides used in the lesson:
Alexander Pope Lesson
Brief Biography of Pope
Blank Verse and Epistolary Literature
Learning Objectives and Connections to the Project
Alexander Pope, 1688-1744
Lived and worked at a time in England when Catholics were subject to laws similar to the Jim Crow Laws of the American South
Early health problems left him undersized and physically disabled
Literature was just becoming something that people could do for a living
Alexander Pope
Key Enlightenment figure along with Jonathan Swift and Sir Isaac Newton
Blank Verse
Unrhymed Iambic Pentameter
Shakespeare's verse in the plays
The version of Antigone that we read
Maintained the tradition of poetry but with a more flexible, straightforward style that anticipated prose
Epistolary Literature
Epistle: a formal letter addressed to one audience for one occasion but written in a way that it can be read by a general audience
Most of the New Testament is Saint Paul's Epistles
Epistolary novels—The Color Purple
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Written in ten stanzas (a stanza is like the paragraph of a poem, but not exactly)
Introduction: greets his audience—St. John (a friend)
Gives the thesis of the essay: [to] "vindicate the ways of God to man"—meaning to show how God's ways rule mankind
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza I: Pope takes a survey of the universe and asks his audience who made it and who's in charge—typical scientific approach to religion of the Enlightenment period
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza II: Pope begins to point out that man's place in the universe is minor and unimportant—compare this to the Biblical view of man as the most special part of the creation
Stanza III: Pope points out that men really know very little, and while Europeans think they know more than Indians, they don't
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza IV: Pope tells his audience to be wiser and that if man questions God about his place in the universe, he's acting like the fallen angels
Stanza V: This is perhaps the most devastating stanza in the epistle; it's Pope's personification of Pride as a selfish little brat
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VI and VI: Pope points out that God has used Nature to give all animals their special powers and bodies—this is a typical Enlightenment view of Nature as a perfectly ordered system designed by the Master Architect (God the engineer or scientist)
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VIII and IX: Pope continues to point out the evils of pride and questioning the perfection of Nature and man's place in it
Stanza X: Pope gives a very strong argument for humility and acceptance, ending with the chilling and humbling line: "whatever is, is right."
Learning Objectives
More exposure to blank verse and exposure to epistolary writing
More exposure to and practice in interpreting figurative language—especially personification and allusions
Reading poetry based on punctuation and not line breaks
Analyzing how figurative language creates meaning—written in essay format
Connection to the Project
Hubris is the Classical Greek idea of the kind of pride that leads to a fall
Pope undermines the hubris of the Enlightenment
Humans aren't that smart or special
Humans are just one part of God's larger creation
Humans should be more humble and accepting of the way things are
Pope counteracts Europe's growing sense of its self-importance and tries to reconnect his audience to humility
Lesson Completed—Good Job
I've also posted an audio "follow along" video online; it isn't much to look at, but it'll help you get the sound of Pope's poetry

For Educational Purposes Only! No Copyright Infringement Intended. After the death of the Borgia pope, Alexander VI (1492 – 1503), and upon the death of Pius III who reigned in 1503 for less than a month, the new pope, Julius II, pursued military solutions to a host of problems left to him by Alexander’s attempt to create a Borgia dynasty. Julius led papal armies in a variety of military campaigns earning the name of The Warrior Pope. He proved to be an energetic defender of the Papal States and led his military campaigns in full battle dress. His nickname was Julius the Terrible. It was Pope Julius who first established a permanent corps of the Pontifical Swiss Guard at the Vatican, and granted them the title of Defenders of the Church’s Freedom.

Cathedral of st. Martin, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy, Europa
The Cathedral of St Martin is a church in Lucca, Italy. It was begun in 1063 by Bishop Anselm (later Pope Alexander II). Of the original structure, the great apse with its tall columnar arcades and the fine campanile remain. The nave and transepts of the cathedral were rebuilt in the Gothic style in the 14th century, while the west front was begun in 1204 by Guido Bigarelli of Como, and consists of a vast portico of three magnificent arches, and above them three ranges of open galleries adorned with sculptures. In the nave a small octagonal temple or chapel shrine contains the most precious relic in Lucca, the Volto Santo di Lucca or Sacred Countenance. This cedar-wood crucifix and image of Christ, according to the legend, was carved by his contemporary Nicodemus, and miraculously conveyed... -

Daughter of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise of Kyiv and Ingegerd, daughter of King Olof Skötkunung of Sweden; the third wife of King Henry I of France; and sister-in-law of kings Andrew I of Hungary and Harald III of Norway. The sonless, twice-widowed Henry arranged to marry Anna to secure Yaroslav's support against the Holy Roman Empire, to obtain a male heir, and to comply with the church's regulations forbidding marriage with close cousins. Their marriage took place at the Reims Cathedral on 19 May 1051, and the first of their three sons, later King Philip I, was born in 1052. The name ‘Philip’ was very rare in France prior to that time, and was likely inspired by Saint Philip who converted Scythia, an... -

This is by far the most difficult part of The Iliad to read aloud because there are so many names with difficult pronunciations. All I can say is, I did as much research as I could, spending several soild days trying to work out the correct way to say each of the names, and then a further two days of practice, repeating them within the context of the poem over and over until they sounded as natural as possible. And that was all before I started recording.
I wanted this part of the poem to be easy on the ear because in reality its second half is largely a long, long list of names and places. I did the best I could with what I had to work with, and if you find that some of the names aren't correctly pronounced, well you probably know much more about Ancient Greek than I.
With this list of names out of the way now, I can promise you there will be much more action in future books!

After the death of the Borgia pope, Alexander VI (1492 – 1503), and upon the death of Pius III who reigned in 1503 for less than a month, the new pope, Julius II, pursued military solutions to a host of problems left to him by Alexander’s attempt to create a Borgia dynasty. Julius led papal armies in a variety of military campaigns earning the name of The Warrior Pope. He proved to be an energetic defender of the Papal States and led his military campaigns in full battle dress. His nickname was Julius the Terrible. It was Pope Julius who first established a permanent corps of the Pontifical Swiss Guard at the Vatican, and granted them the title of Defenders of the Church’s Freedom.
The Swiss Guard has varied in size over the years. Its most significant, hostile engagement was on May 6, 1527 when 147 of the 189 Guards lost their lives during the Sack of Rome in order to allow Clement VII to escape escorted by the other forty guards. They have served popes since the 16th century, operating mostly as a ceremonial escort to the pope. Swiss guardsmen must be Catholic males between the ages of nineteen and thirty years of age and at least 5′ 9″ tall. They must have the recommendation of their local parish and have served in a basic military school in Switzerland. They serve for a period of two years.
The uniform of the Swiss Guard, of which there are two styles in the Collection, is a Renaissance style weighing eight pounds. Its colors are those of the Medici coat of arms in honor of Clement VII. It is often thought that Michelangelo designed the uniform. He did not.
Service includes physical training, drills and instruction in combat. Enrollment into the Swiss Guard takes place on May 6th each year in honor of the day in 1527 when their forebears died defending Pope Clement VII.

The Cathedral of St Martin is a church in Lucca, Italy. It was begun in 1063 by Bishop Anselm (later Pope Alexander II). Of the original structure, the great apse with its tall columnar arcades and the fine campanile remain. The nave and transepts of the cathedral were rebuilt in the Gothic style in the 14th century, while the west front was begun in 1204 by Guido Bigarelli of Como, and consists of a vast portico of three magnificent arches, and above them three ranges of open galleries adorned with sculptures. In the nave a small octagonal temple or chapel shrine contains the most precious relic in Lucca, the Volto Santo di Lucca or Sacred Countenance. This cedar-wood crucifix and image of Christ, according to the legend, was carved by his contemporary Nicodemus, and miraculously conveyed to Lucca in 782. Christ is clothed in the colobium, a long sleeveless garment. The chapel was built in 1484 by Matteo Civitali, the most famous Luccan sculptor of the early Renaissance. The tomb of Ilaria del Carretto by Jacopo della Quercia of Siena, the earliest of his extant works was commissioned by her husband, the lord of Lucca, Paolo Guinigi, in 1406. Additionally the cathedral contains Domenico Ghirlandaio's Madonna and Child with Saints Peter, Clement, Paul and Sebastian; Federico Zuccari's Adoration of the Magi, Jacopo Tintoretto's Last Supper, and finally Fra Bartolomeo's Madonna and Child (1509). There is a legend to explain why all the columns of the façade are different. According to the tale, when they were going to decorate it, the inhabitants of Lucca announced a contest for the best column. Every artist made a column, but then the inhabitants of Lucca decided to take them all, without paying the artists and used all the columns. The labyrinth or maze is embedded in the right pier of the portico and is believed to date from the 12th or 13th century. Its importance is that it may well pre-date the famous Chartres maze, yet is of the Chartres pattern that became a standard for mazes. The rustic incised Latin inscription refers to ancient pagan mythology: "This is the labyrinth built by Dedalus of Crete; all who entered therein were lost, save Theseus, thanks to Ariadne's thread" (HIC QUEM CRETICUS EDIT. DAEDALUS EST LABERINTHUS . DE QUO NULLUS VADERE . QUIVIT QUI FUIT INTUS . NI THESEUS GRATIS ADRIANE . STAMINE JUTUS").

Anna Yaroslavna [Анна Ярославна; Jaroslavna], b 1024/25 or 1032 in Kyiv, d after 1075. Daughter of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise of Kyiv and Ingegerd, daughter of King Olof Skötkunung of Sweden; the third wife of King Henry I of France; and sister-in-law of kings Andrew I of Hungary and Harald III of Norway. The sonless, twice-widowed Henry arranged to marry Anna to secure Yaroslav's support against the Holy Roman Empire, to obtain a male heir, and to comply with the church's regulations forbidding marriage with close cousins. Their marriage took place at the Reims Cathedral on 19 May 1051, and the first of their three sons, later King Philip I, was born in 1052. The name ‘Philip’ was very rare in France prior to that time, and was likely inspired by Saint Philip who converted Scythia, an area identified with Kyivan Rus’ in the Middle Ages. After Henry's death in 1060, Anna (Anne) ruled France as co-regent while Philip was a child. In 1061 she married Count Raoul III of Valois, resulting in their excommunication by Pope Alexander II because Raoul already had a wife. After Raoul’s death in 1074, Anna returned to Philip’s court. The place and date of her death are unknown.
Anna's signature in Cyrillic on a French royal charter from the 1060s is the only known example of a Capetian queen's signature on parchment and the only known (pre-13th century) signature of a member of the Riurykide dynasty. It is the oldest extant example of Old Ukrainian handwriting. A medieval fresco depicting her and her mother and two sisters is preserved in Kyiv’s Saint Sophia Cathedral, and two 20th-century full-figure sculptures of Anna are found in Senlis near Paris in the church of Saint Vincent's Monastery, which she had founded.

In this lesson, we take a look at Alexander Pope's biography and its impact on his life, and then we'll look at epistolary literature and blank verse in preparation for a reading of Pope's Essay on Man, Epistle 1.
Below is the outline of the slides used in the lesson:
Alexander Pope Lesson
Brief Biography of Pope
Blank Verse and Epistolary Literature
Learning Objectives and Connections to the Project
Alexander Pope, 1688-1744
Lived and worked at a time in England when Catholics were subject to laws similar to the Jim Crow Laws of the American South
Early health problems left him undersized and physically disabled
Literature was just becoming something that people could do for a living
Alexander Pope
Key Enlightenment figure along with Jonathan Swift and Sir Isaac Newton
Blank Verse
Unrhymed Iambic Pentameter
Shakespeare's verse in the plays
The version of Antigone that we read
Maintained the tradition of poetry but with a more flexible, straightforward style that anticipated prose
Epistolary Literature
Epistle: a formal letter addressed to one audience for one occasion but written in a way that it can be read by a general audience
Most of the New Testament is Saint Paul's Epistles
Epistolary novels—The Color Purple
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Written in ten stanzas (a stanza is like the paragraph of a poem, but not exactly)
Introduction: greets his audience—St. John (a friend)
Gives the thesis of the essay: [to] "vindicate the ways of God to man"—meaning to show how God's ways rule mankind
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza I: Pope takes a survey of the universe and asks his audience who made it and who's in charge—typical scientific approach to religion of the Enlightenment period
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza II: Pope begins to point out that man's place in the universe is minor and unimportant—compare this to the Biblical view of man as the most special part of the creation
Stanza III: Pope points out that men really know very little, and while Europeans think they know more than Indians, they don't
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza IV: Pope tells his audience to be wiser and that if man questions God about his place in the universe, he's acting like the fallen angels
Stanza V: This is perhaps the most devastating stanza in the epistle; it's Pope's personification of Pride as a selfish little brat
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VI and VI: Pope points out that God has used Nature to give all animals their special powers and bodies—this is a typical Enlightenment view of Nature as a perfectly ordered system designed by the Master Architect (God the engineer or scientist)
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VIII and IX: Pope continues to point out the evils of pride and questioning the perfection of Nature and man's place in it
Stanza X: Pope gives a very strong argument for humility and acceptance, ending with the chilling and humbling line: "whatever is, is right."
Learning Objectives
More exposure to blank verse and exposure to epistolary writing
More exposure to and practice in interpreting figurative language—especially personification and allusions
Reading poetry based on punctuation and not line breaks
Analyzing how figurative language creates meaning—written in essay format
Connection to the Project
Hubris is the Classical Greek idea of the kind of pride that leads to a fall
Pope undermines the hubris of the Enlightenment
Humans aren't that smart or special
Humans are just one part of God's larger creation
Humans should be more humble and accepting of the way things are
Pope counteracts Europe's growing sense of its self-importance and tries to reconnect his audience to humility
Lesson Completed—Good Job
I've also posted an audio "follow along" video online; it isn't much to look at, but it'll help you get the sound of Pope's poetry

In this lesson, we take a look at Alexander Pope's biography and its impact on his life, and then we'll look at epistolary literature and blank verse in preparation for a reading of Pope's Essay on Man, Epistle 1.
Below is the outline of the slides used in the lesson:
Alexander Pope Lesson
Brief Biography of Pope
Blank Verse and Epistolary Literature
Learning Objectives and Connections to the Project
Alexander Pope, 1688-1744
Lived and worked at a time in England when Catholics were subject to laws similar to the Jim Crow Laws of the American South
Early health problems left him undersized and physically disabled
Literature was just becoming something that people could do for a living
Alexander Pope
Key Enlightenment figure along with Jonathan Swift and Sir Isaac Newton
Blank Verse
Unrhymed Iambic Pentameter
Shakespeare's verse in the plays
The version of Antigone that we read
Maintained the tradition of poetry but with a more flexible, straightforward style that anticipated prose
Epistolary Literature
Epistle: a formal letter addressed to one audience for one occasion but written in a way that it can be read by a general audience
Most of the New Testament is Saint Paul's Epistles
Epistolary novels—The Color Purple
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Written in ten stanzas (a stanza is like the paragraph of a poem, but not exactly)
Introduction: greets his audience—St. John (a friend)
Gives the thesis of the essay: [to] "vindicate the ways of God to man"—meaning to show how God's ways rule mankind
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza I: Pope takes a survey of the universe and asks his audience who made it and who's in charge—typical scientific approach to religion of the Enlightenment period
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza II: Pope begins to point out that man's place in the universe is minor and unimportant—compare this to the Biblical view of man as the most special part of the creation
Stanza III: Pope points out that men really know very little, and while Europeans think they know more than Indians, they don't
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanza IV: Pope tells his audience to be wiser and that if man questions God about his place in the universe, he's acting like the fallen angels
Stanza V: This is perhaps the most devastating stanza in the epistle; it's Pope's personification of Pride as a selfish little brat
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VI and VI: Pope points out that God has used Nature to give all animals their special powers and bodies—this is a typical Enlightenment view of Nature as a perfectly ordered system designed by the Master Architect (God the engineer or scientist)
The Structure of "An Essay on Man, Epistle I"
Stanzas VIII and IX: Pope continues to point out the evils of pride and questioning the perfection of Nature and man's place in it
