9/19: Odyssean centos
I'm preparing to do a cento workshop (using Homer's Odyssey as the source text) at school in early October and then at a professional conference later in the month. This summer I worked on a Homeric cento using Chapman's famous translation, and last night and today I've made two little ones using Lattimore's text. When I teach the Odyssey I use Fagles' translation because of its high readability for students, but Lattimore's version has a more Homeric texture so it's been interesting to use for this project.
