An Evening with translator & classics professor, Emily Wilson
Emily Wilson is a professor of classical studies at the University of Pennsylvania. She lives in Philadelphia.
In this fresh, authoritative version—the first English translation of The Odyssey by a woman—this stirring tale of shipwrecks, monsters, and magic comes alive in an entirely new way. Written in iambic pentameter verse and a vivid, contemporary idiom, this engrossing translation matches the number of lines in the Greek original, thus striding at Homer’s sprightly pace and singing with a fresh voice.
