I've finished the initial history book and Pope's Illiad/Odyssey. Can anyone recommend editions that combine the rest in the fewest volumes? Hardback would be great. /chart/ general as well I guess.

I know it's a bit, but suggesting Lattimore nowadays is tricky. Plenty of scholars are in agreement that his translation, while influential, is as archaic now as Pope and Chapman were in their respective eras.

There is NOTHING wrong with using Lattimore. But he does use language in a far too awkward way at the expense of preserving the original literal translation. The problem is that English does not sound good in that same Greek structure. It's blocky and ugly.

Newer translations of The Iliad that seem to be making their way into current are Peter Green and Caroline Alexander's translations. They seem to keep the poetry of the original while not adding too much or structuring their language in an obtuse way.

For The Odyssey there is massive agreement that Emily Wilson has the best translation. She is literal, keeps the language poetic, and does not add any flourishes that were not found in the original Greek text (the section of the sirens for example has been expanded upon by many authors when in reality it's only two lines of the whole poem).

At the end of the day it's really about what you, the reader, prefer though. If reading Lattimore makes sense and makes an impact then read Lattimore. If Chapman's verse strikes you better then stick with Chapman. The beauty of Homer is that there are so many translations that you can read at least one new entry each year and compare and contrast.
