Excerpt from On Translating Homer, Last Words: A Lecture Given at Oxford
Tion, and in my humble way I mean always to follow it. I never have replied, I never will reply, to any literary assailant; in such encounters tempers are lost, the world laughs, and truth is not served. Least of all should I think of using this Chair as a place from which to carry on such a conflict. But when a learned and estimable man thinks he has reason to complain of language used by me in this Chair.

It offers a fresh perspective on the challenges and rewards of translating these ancient epics and provides insights that will enrich the understanding of both scholars and general readers alike.
