Set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy (Ilium) by a coalition of Greek states, it tells of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. The English version of The Iliad is Alexander Pope’s. As Dr. Johnson said of Pope’s rendition of the Odessey, it is, “certainly the noblest version of poetry which the world has ever seen.”
