This website-under-construction offers several features:
a map of ideas of the Iliad in the
form of a 'thematic structure'. It is meant to bring out a pattern of
large- and small scale thematic symmetries encompassing the whole
poem, presented as a hierarchical tree-structure i.e. an expandable
list.
A new interpretation of the Iliad based on this structure.
The Greek text plus a translation
of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey plus Hesiod's Theogony and Works &
Days. Greek text and translation are linked to each other by
clicking on the line numbers.
a search engine and study tool
which can select words or lines containing a given word from the
Greek text or the translation and bookmark them, or perform an
instant lookup in the Perseus database for meaning or grammatical
form.
small extra's such as a load/savable notepad with a
betacode-converter. Also load/savable bookmarks.
If opened by a up-to-date browser (not Firefox), the pages can be made into a progressive
web app. This means all the pages are cached so they do not have to be reloaded
and the app can be used offline (recommended).

Greek texts and their translations, except the Iliad, provided by Perseus Digital Library,
with funding from The Annenberg CPB/Project. Original version available
for viewing and download at Perseus.
The Iliad translation is the 1883 edition of "The Iliad of Homer" by Andrew Lang, Walter Leaf and Ernest Myers. Available through Project Gutenberg. Its language may be dated but it is the most precise translation I could find in the public domain.
Greek word lookup provided by the Perseus Word Study Tool.
