My Favorite Poet : Homer A man named Homer lived at the end of Grecian dark ages. Over 2700 years ago, Homer collected and wrote down many of the ancient legends told by the traveling storytellers. Homer took all the stories about King Odysseus and put this collection of stories together in one book, which he named The Odyssey.

Biography Famous As: Ancient Epic Poet Nationality: Greek Born In: Greece Place Of Death: Greece Works & Achievements: Wrote the great epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey Homer is the greatest poet of ancient times I believe. He is the author of Iliad and the Odyssey which has been a privilege of being the greatest poems of world literature.it is not known for sure when Homer was born, the time of his birth is estimated somewhere between the 8th and 9th century B.C, some others say that Homer lived during the Trojan war in the early 12th century B.C. Homer belongs to Greece by birth but the exact location of his birth and living is also doubtful. Some believe that he was born on Chios Island while others say he lived in Ionia. The dialect and descriptions in his poems point towards the latter. Not much is known about Homer the and, his poems are his personality and life. For example, Homer is thought to be blind due to the description presented of the blind bard in The Odyssey. It is also supposed that the word Homer was used to address blind men roaming the streets reciting classical poetry. Some historians believe that Homer was also a story teller and a court singer.

One of the poems by Homer also my favorite poem:The Iliad (bk I) What really struck me is that even tough Homer was blind he still could take such amazing stories and turn them into great literature. His poems are so deep that you can see yourself in the state he was in. Greek text of the Odyssey's opening passage
