Worldview Guide for the Odyssey - Louis Markos

Descriere Worldview Guide for the Odyssey - Louis Markos

\n \nIf the Iliad is the first tragedy ever written, then the Odyssey is the first comedy. Whereas the first gives us man the warrior, seeking glory on the battlefield, the second gives us man the husband and father, seeking domestic bliss with his family. -F rom Dr. Markos's guide\n \n \n\n \nThe Worldview Guides from the Canon Classics Literature Series provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian perspective on the most definitive and daunting works of Western Literature. Each Worldview Guide presents the big picture (both the good and the bad) without neglecting the details. Each Worldview Guide is a friendly literary coach - and a treasure map, and a compass, and a key - to help teachers, parents, and students appreciate, critique, and begin to master the classics.\n \n \n\n \nThe bite-size WGs are divided into these ten sections (with some variation due to genre): Introduction, The World Around, About the Author, What Other Notables Said, Setting, Characters, & Argument, Worldview Analysis, Quotables, 21 Significant Questions & Answers, and Further Discussion & Review.\n
