The Odyssey by Homer. The complete text.
The complete text of the Odyssey as translated by S.H. Butcher and Andrew Lang. The Odyssey consists of 24 books. Since each book is too large to fit on a single card, they are divided up into different cards, three to five cards a book. A preface and summary of the contents are found on the next two cards.
Don't forget that this is oral literature, and that it was meant and composed to be read aloud. The style of this 19th century translation will seem archaic to many students, but it is extremely well done and free of most of the excesses common to the period.
It is an excellent translation for those wishing to expand their vocabulary, or who delight in the richness of language. It is full of all kinds of obscure and obsolete words. (The kind of words one never comes across except in places such as SAT tests.)
