ScriptaokeThe Fall of Troy
by Quintus of Smyrna from 4th century CE
About
Quintus of Smyrna's Posthomerica fills in the gap between the Iliad and the Odyssey: Penthesilea the Amazon queen, the death of Achilles, the Trojan Horse, and the sack of Troy. Written in Homeric hexameters as a deliberate continuation of Homer, it is the most complete narrative of the Troy cycle's final phase. Individual books extract cleanly.
Translated from the original Greek.
