In Regarding the Content – Homer's Odyssey, D.N. Maronitis offers the essence of each rhapsody of the Odyssey in 24 short texts. His 24 essays read like a poem that contains the essence of the thoughts of the great Homeric scholar and translator of the Iliad and the Odyssey. With great economy, without any superfluous words, they condense each time the poetic myth into a key image that brings the epic to life before our eyes.
Agra Publications has been collaborating with D.N. Maronitis for about 35 years, starting with the famous book Herodotus – Seven Novellas and Three Unpublished (Introduction, translation, and three essays, 1981), which later became Eight Novellas and Four Unpublished (Introduction, translation, and five essays, 2001). The first edition was awarded at the Leipzig Book Fair in 1982 with the prize for the best designed book in the world. This was followed by: SELECTIONS FROM HESIOD, THEOGONY, WORKS AND DAYS, 2009.
