oh we know at least a candidate for telemachus btw!

theres one guy who shows up that we dont recognize and thats miguel veloso! and jay said that both penelope AND telemachus sing in keep your friends close (the song i yoinked the credits from) which means theres a high chance that this is who plays telemachus!

this mightve alr been brought up but i felt the need to show you this just in case since ur the epic blog

I believe he is Telemachus! He has been credited as the voice of Telemachus on the wiki for a bit (which I know isn’t always the most reliable source of info) but in addition there is this clip that someone found of him singing Legendary!!

“Well, you know, Jay, I have been running for a long time. My entire life, which is about four million of your lifetimes. And, I don’t know if it helps or not, but it doesn’t stop. And there’s nothing bad about that, ‘cause there’s energy in it. And sometimes it’s nice to slow down and look out and…enjoy the view but, there’s nothing like the wind in your hair. So, if you’re gonna go fast, at least have fun with it ” —Hermes, February 28, 2024

I don’t wanna talk to Penelope

circe or calypso.

you cannot say Penelope.

My wife

Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.

Of fucking course

What sick bastard doesn’t

am I gonna have to fight you for him?

So….are you? Are you single?

uhhhh ummm

I had the book so I just took a picture

(sorry that the quality is bad)

I've been meaning to read the Illiad and the Odyssey for ages but keep putting it off cause I've heard they're hard reads/written kinda complicated. I was just wondering if the version you have is an easier read? What's the writing style like?

I would say it is a slightly easier read than some of the ones I’ve read in the past! Emily Wilson’s are structured into a more poem/verse type story, and since they are newer translations I would say they have the advantage of more so modern language?

These are pictures of the first page of two of my versions of the Odyssey! The first is the Emily Wilson Translation (2018) and the second is Samuel Butler (1900)

And this one is one from the first page of Emily Wilson’s Iliad (2023) (I don’t have another to compare it to sadly)

Overall I greatly enjoy her translations! I’m not done reading her Iliad yet, but so far it is turning out to be really good!!!

if Telemachus has 100 fans, I'm one of them. If Telemachus has 1 fan, it's me. If Telemachus has no fans, I’m dead.

I can’t be the only one who thought this was absolutely terrifying
