The Odyssey and The Iliad, Romanian edition

Published by at 1:29 pm under iliad,odyssey

One of the coolest things that may occasionally happen to an author is receiving foreign editions of your books. There’s not a whole lot of money in foreign editions, but the wow factor of seeing your book in another language is really hard to beat. This is even more true when it’s a graphic novel, and you get to see the foreign translation juxtaposed with your illustrations. And best of all, with sound effects!! This new Romanian edition of The Odyssey and The Iliad is bringing me great joy. The publisher is Humanitas Junior.

    Who translated the liad and the Odyssey from ancient Greek into Roumanian????’

    I know them in English from Richmond Lattimore translations and had heard of a Greek preparing to translate them into Roumanian as he was from the Roumanian Greek community.

    Andrei Pogacias did the translation — which, to be clear, is not a translation from the original Greek, but from my own English text, which is also not translated from Greek, but was written after consulting prominent translations by Fitzgerald, Fagles, Lattimore, and Rieu. Thanks!
