Zehn Jahre dauerte es, bis Troja durch Odysseus' List erobert wurde - zehn weitere Jahre benötigt er, um in seine Heimat Ithaka zurückzukehren. Zahlreiche Prüfungen werden ihm von den Göttern auferlegt, ehe er endlich nach Hause findet. Das weltberühmte Epos - ungekürzt gelesen von David Nathan.

La Vita nuova è la prima opera di attribuzione certa di Dante Alighieri, scritta tra il 1293 e il 1294. Si tratta di un prosimetro nel quale sono inserite 31 liriche (25 sonetti, 1 ballata, 5 canzoni) in una cornice narrativa di 42 capitoli.

Maudits selon l'expression consacrée et l'ouvrage éponyme que Verlaine publie en 1884, les poètes amants ont exploré ensemble les nouvelles voies poétiques, rejetant les conventions et embrassant l'expérimentation formelle et thématique. C'est ce jeu de sons allié à la puissance du verbe que l'on goûte avec délice grâce à l'interprétation passionnée de cette sélection de leurs poèmes par les grands de la Comédie-Française tels que Robert Hirsch, Jean Piat ou Jean-Louis Barrault.

Hesíodo describe el nacimiento de diversas deidades y criaturas mitológicas, como Gea (la Tierra), Urano (el Cielo), los Titanes, los Cíclopes y los Hecatónquiros. También relata la lucha entre los Titanes y Zeus, conocida como la Titanomaquia, así como la historia de Prometeo y la creación de Pandora, el primer ser humano femenino. Esta obra fue fundamental para la religión y la literatura griega, pues organizó y estructuró los mitos dispersos en una narración coherente.

Hafiz's Little Book of Life is a lush collection of more than 250 selections from his lifework (his divan). Alongside a Quran, a copy of his divan can be found in average homes in Iran—where stars can be heard singing his poetry on the radio, and lines from his poems are quoted on the street. His poetry is sure to strike a chord in the hearts of readers everywhere. This vital collection of mystical poetry focuses on the issues we encounter in everyday life. Each brief poem may be savored as an oasis of clarity in the hurried literacy of our time, or the entire book enjoyed in one sitting.

Abraham Lincoln read it with approval, but Emily Dickinson described its bold language and themes as "disgraceful." And Ralph Waldo Emerson found Leaves of Grass "the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet contributed," calling it a "combination of the Bhagavad Gita and the New York Herald."

After the long hardships of the Trojan War, Odysseus is on his way home. But since the Gods in Olympos are still mad at Odysseus, they put lots of obstacles in his way: The nymph Calypso, Circe, Cyclops, the deadly Scylla and Charybdis - only the ever-cunning Odysseus is able to survive all these deadly traps. Finally, he makes it home, all by himself, at last. However, the story doesn't end there. In his house, there is a host of wooers who want to marry his faithful wife Penelope; they eat all his food, they drink his best wine, and they conspire to kill his son Telemachus.

In the heat of the Trojan War, the Greek army’s greatest warrior, Achilles, withdraws from battle after a bitter dispute with King Agamemnon. As the war spirals into chaos, heroes rise and fall, divine forces meddle in mortal affairs, and honor is tested on every side. But when tragedy strikes, Achilles must confront his rage—and his destiny.

John Milton's On the Morning of Christ's Nativity is no ordinary Christmas poem. Written when he was just twenty-one, it reveals an early glimpse of the depth and ambition that would later shape Paradise Lost. Here, the nativity is not sentimental but cosmic: a quiet moment that echoes across heaven, earth, and myth. This is poetry as vision—blending classical imagery, biblical themes, and rich musical language. Angels descend, stars pause in wonder, and the natural world falls into a hush. Pagan gods retreat into silence, as if even they recognize the shift in power.

The ancient story and legend of Odysseus's return home.

A nightingale overhears a student complaining that the professor's daughter will not dance with him, as he is unable to give her a red rose; a lizard, a butterfly and a daisy laugh at the student for doing so. The nightingale visits all the rose-trees in the garden, and one of the roses tells her there is a way to produce a red rose, but only if the nightingale is prepared to sing the sweetest song for the rose all night with her heart pressing into a thorn, sacrificing her life.

In The Rose, award-winning poet Ariana Reines navigates the intersection of power and surrender. Drawing on the history of "romance" as the troubadours knew it and the titular flower's ancient allegories for sexuality and mystery, Reines plunges into feminine archetypes to explore masculine pain: "I have always liked helpless / & terrible men because they break my mind."
