Classical Epics Box Set

$64.95

by Homer & Virgil
Translated by Robert Fagles

Enter the grandeur of the ancient world with this stunning boxed set of the three great epics that have shaped Western civilization for centuries. From the clash of heroes in The Iliad, to the long journey home in The Odyssey, to the founding vision of Rome in The Aeneid, these timeless works form the very foundation of classical literature.

Presented here in award-winning translations by Robert Fagles, this collection brings new clarity, power, and poetic beauty to these enduring masterpieces

Why This Set Stands Out

  • Complete collection of the three great epics in one elegant boxed set

  • Acclaimed translations that are both faithful and highly readable

  • Insightful introductions by renowned classicist Bernard Knox

  • A beautiful addition to any classical homeschool or family library

  • Ideal as a gift or cornerstone collection for students of the humanities

Foundations of Western Thought

These epics are more than stories—they are the roots of literature, history, and philosophy in the Western tradition. Through heroism, sacrifice, and the search for home and destiny, they invite readers into the great conversation of the ages.

  • Format: Boxed set (3 volumes)

  • Translator: Robert Fagles
