L'Iliade by Omero, Cinzia Medaglia - Summary

Elena is the most beautiful woman in the world. When Paride kidnaps her and takes her to Troy her husband, Menelao, who is also the King of Sparta, gathers the most powerful men in Greece and declares war against Troy. This is the story of Menelao’s heroic warriors, their adventures and of the bad tempers of the fickle but powerful Gods who intervene in the fate of the characters. Most importantly, behind the ten year long war occurring in the background, this is a story of friendship, honour, love and mutual respect. The text includes numerous activities and a short dossier on the Greek world.

Elena, la donna più bella del mondo, è stata rapita da Paride e portata a Troia. Per riaverla Menelao, marito di lei e re di Sparta, chiama a raccolta sovrani e principi greci e dichiara guerra ai Troiani. Vedremo in azione eroici guerrieri quali Achille ed Ettore, ci appassioneremo alle vicende di re e comandanti, seguiremo le imprese di uomini forti e coraggiosi, assisteremo ai capricci di dei volubili e potenti che intervengono nel destino dell'uomo quando e come vogliono. Sullo sfondo di una guerra durata dieci lunghi anni, spiccano valori che perdurano nel tempo quali l’amicizia, l’onore, l’amore e il rispetto reciproco. Completano il testo numerose attività e un breve dossier sul mondo greco.
