Homeri Ilias est carmen heroicum Graecorum, quod de bello Troiano narrat. Libri duodecim, quos huius operis pars constituit, sunt pleni pugnis, duellis, et consiliis deorum et hominum. In libro primo, Achilleus iratus est cum Agamemnone, regi Graecorum, et recusat pugnam, quae tamen postea fit. In libro secundo, deae Athenae et Herae, et deus Poseidon, qui favent Graecis, pugnant cum deo Apolline et dea Aphrodite, qui favent Troianis. In libro tertio, Pallas Athena et Pandarus, Troianorum princeps, inducunt bellum. In libro quarto, Menelaus et Paris, Troianorum princeps, duellum committunt, sed Venus Paris subducit. In libro quinto, Diomedes, Graecorum princeps, pugnat cum deis et Troianis, et vulnerat deum Ares. In libro sexto, Hector, Troianorum princeps, ad urbem revertitur, sed postea ad pugnam redit. In libro septimo, Hector et Ajax, Graecorum princeps, duellum committunt, sed sine victore. In libro octavo, deus Zeus inducit Troianorum victoriam. In libro nono, deus Achilles ad pugnam redit et interficit Hector. In libro decimo, deus Apolline et dea Artemide pugnant cum Graecis. In libro undecimo, Ajax et Odysseus, Graecorum principes, pugnant cum Troianis. In libro duodecimo, Troiani incendunt naves Graecorum. Hoc opus est una ex antiquissimis et celeberrimis poesis Graecae, et multos auctores et poetas postea inspiravit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Homer is the name ascribed by the Ancient Greeks to the semi-legendary author of the two epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, the central works of Greek literature. Many accounts of Homer's life circulated in classical antiquity, the most widespread being that he was a blind bard from Ionia, a region of central coastal Anatolia in present-day Turkey. The modern scholarly consensus is that these traditions do not have any historical value.The importance of Homer to the ancient Greeks is described in Plato's Republic, where he is referred to as the protos didaskalos, "first teacher", of tragedy, the hegemon paideias, "leader of learning" and the one who ten Hellada pepaideuken, "has taught Greece". Homer's works, which are about fifty percent speeches, provided models in persuasive speaking and writing that were emulated throughout the ancient and medieval Greek worlds. Fragments of Homer account for nearly half of all identifiable Greek literary papyrus finds in Egypt.
