Excerpt from The Story of the Odyssey, or the Adventures of Ulysses: For Boys and Girls A few thoughts upon the nature of the work may be appropriate here. The many points of difference in the Iliad' and Odyssey have raised the question of their common authorship but the best judgment ascribes them both to the same gifted mind. This very difference is a mark of the fertile genius of their great author, and gives an added charm to each. The Iliad, says one.

In The Adventures of Ulysses, Charles Lamb re-tells the story of Ulysses's journey from Troy to his own kingdom of Ithaca. The book uses Homer's The Odyssey as the basis for the story, but it isn't a direct translation of the Greek classic. The book is considered a modern version of the epic tale when it was published in 1808. In the preface of the book, Lamb said that he made the narration of the story faster so that more readers would be attracted to it. To begin with, Homer's Odyssey is already a classic and in re-telling this story, Charles Lamb aimed to make this epic poem more comprehensible to the average person. And he was successful in doing what he aimed for. The book became very popular not just to adults but also among children because it was well-written and can be easily understood. Lamb was really talented in bringing deep, hard to understand works of literature close to the masses. Before The Adventures of Ulysses, Lamb also wrote Tales From Shakespeare in which some of Shakespeare's plays were retold as short stories, so like Ulysses, they can also be easily read. The Adventures of Ulysses is filled with interesting characters including sirens, giants, warriors and enchanters. Each chapter is filled with new adventures and challenges which Ulysses must face and overcome. Lamb was able to retell the story of Ulysses's adventures in a light and entertaining way without losing any of the important details of the original story. Readers who are into Greek mythology and are also looking to read a version of Homer's Odyssey will surely enjoy reading this book. The original version of the Odyssey may not be easy to read for everyone. If you're looking for a book that will let you understand the story of the epic tale with great accuracy this is the book for you.

Based on The Adventures of Ulysses by Charles Lamb, this book is a narrative of Homer's epic poem which preserves all of the suspense-filled adventure while updating the language to be more accessible to today's modern reader.

Ulysses. The hero of Homer's great poem was known to the Greeks under the name of Odysseus. He was king of the pastoral islands of Ithaca and Dulichium. Most of the petty Greek chieftains became suitors for the hand of the beautiful Helen, and Ulysses was among the number, but withdrew when he realised the smallness of his chances. He then married Penelope, the daughter of Icarius, and at the same time joined with the other unsuccessful lovers of Helen in a sworn league for her future protection should she ever stand in need of it. He then returned to Ithaca with his bride. The rape of Helen soon compelled him to leave Penelope and join the other Grecian princes in the great war against Troy. He endeavoured to avoid the summons by pretending madness. Yoking a horse and a bull together, he began to plough the sands of the sea shore. The messenger who was sent to him took Telemachus, the infant son of Ulysses, and placed the child in the direct course of the plough, in this way circumventing his design. Ulysses was one of the most prominent figures during the Trojan war, his valour, and still more his cunning, making him of supreme importance in the councils of the princes. After the Trojan war Ulysses set sail for home, and at this period of his career the story of the Odyssey begins. Includes vintage illustration!
