For numerous generations of readers, the acquaintance with ancient culture and world literature invariably begins with the poems The Iliad and The Odyssey by the legendary ancient Greek poet Homer (VIII-VII centuries BC).

The Odyssey is an epic story about the wanderings of the wise Odysseus, King of Ithaca, after the end of the Trojan War - about the unusual adventures he had on his way home to his native island of Ithaca, where his wife Penelope and son Telemachus were waiting for him, about the real and fantastic lands he visited. The poem depicts interesting everyday life and customs of the ancient Greeks and is a complete embodiment of the classical epic.
