This is kinda the right thread:

I've been reading the Iliad in Pope's translation. I know he utterly overrides Homer's voice, so now I'm wondering if I fucked up. Is Pope's poetry worth not getting the same work? In other words, does Homer's work transcend flowery words, or is the poetry an integral part of the work?
