Lo sublime
date
newest »

Because no matter what translation it is, ancient literature is always alienating and a bit difficult for modern readers. I love _The Iliad_, but I don't read it like a sci-fi novel, burning through it in a modern-fiction spurt. It takes time, it takes effort, it takes thought.

Yes... But that doesn't mean, of course, that the sublime in Homer cannot be perceived at all. It is just more difficult, but reading Tolstoi is also more difficult, as are other texts that reach the sublime.

¿Por qué para algunos lectores no?
In my opinion, Homero reach the sublime. Why not for other readers?
