Homer's Iliad is an independent study for students who have finished 4 years of Greek and wish to continue their Greek readings. The student is accountable for regular weekly progress but does not meet regularly with the instructor. Instead, the student works independently on translation assignments that are submitted online, while making use of the resources provided in the commentary on the text, or other available resources which are suggested by the advisor or at the disposal of the student.

In order to prepare for the National Greek Exam covering Homer's Iliad, the student will read representative selections from the Iliad.
