The Iliad by Homer - Book 1 (adapted for audio, unabridged, enhanced production)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 чер 2022
- The Iliad, By Homer, translated by A. T. Murray, adapted for audio, and read by Foolish Fish.
The plan was originally to read all 24 books, little by little, and point out the esoteric teachings in separate videos.
It turns out that Jack Grayle is just finishing up creating a course in which he does exactly this ( grayle-lore.teachable.com/p/g... ) - Being the gentleman he is, Jack told me not to worry and to go ahead with the project, however if this is something that already exists, (and created by none other than the great Jack Grayle himself, no less), I think it may be worth considering doing one or two chapters of the Iliad before moving on to some other work, giving us all the opportunity to discover many works (rather than just one) over a shorter span of time.
Hopefully this reading of chapter one will please some however, and provide some encouragement to go on to read the rest of the work.
The version I am reading today is the Murray translation which I have updated and adapted to a great extent for pleasure of listening, and to minimise the repetitions and confusions caused by the original.
Yes, I've been a little ham-fisted with the sound effects at times, but I've had a great deal of fun putting this together. I hope you don't hate the outcome :D
Thank you for reading, thank you for listening, and see you shortly with the analysis video for this first part!

That was a lovely surprise thanks
I can hear the inner thespian!
I was interested in Grayle’s series a while ago but it is out of my reach, so I was absolutely delighted to discover you are creating your own! Thank you for embarking on this wonderful journey!
Addendum: I already see how lucky your son is to be able to count on his father's so inspired readings! Congratulations! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Hehe! THat's really kind, @THe Wizard of Awes :D I get a lot of pleasure reading to him, and I think he likes it too xD
Yes! I was anticipating this. 📜
What a wonderful narrator you are, our dearest FF.
Εἴθε να είσαι πολυτάλαντος! 🙏
What kind words, @Anayrrë! :) Thank you so much! :) Best wishes to you!
Please, please continue with the readings and also your analysis. This is truly a great version, it reminds me of the last time I watched the play ‘Tantalus’ which covers a huge period of Greek history.
Wonderful! Clean, precise, and engaging to listen to. Please upload more of this.😊
Hi @Gemstone, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm quite attached to this one despite its very poor viewer performance! 😂
This is the best audio version I’ve ever heard. Thank you
Thank you, Mark! Very kind of you to say!
This is fantastic! Thank you so much for this beautiful recording-you honestly just made my, a classics student’s, day.
My very great pleasure, Lea! :)
Masterful, poignant and a delight to hear again. Thank you so much, well done sir
Thank you so much! Curious to see how many people decide to watch this when it goes public today 🫣
Dear, Fish: amazing! You've outdone yourself here! Please accept my congratulations! Superb! I look forward to the next reading recordings!!!
Thank you kindly, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
This was the text that was used when I learned Greek, and the Aeneid for Latin.
Great Choice
I learned Latin on this! 😍
This was wonderful to listen to! Beautiful work! I hope to hear more.
Ah! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 😄🙏
Denis, I can't tell you how excited this makes. I am very much an auditory learner, and hearing this in a familiar voice is going to be so pleasant!! ty for bringing so much great literature to us, I know you're a previous teacher, and that really shows through your work.
Hi @Millennial Buddhism! :D I really hope you like it! There'll be another video next week in which I point out some of the esoteric hints we can get from the text :)
@@FoolishFishBooks Of course, because you're the best! I have really wanted to get into Homer but it felt daunting. I'm not good at reading boring books, as much as I want to be lol. I have to listen to them. I'm listening as I work, and I love all your voices for the characters
A fine reading, nice tonal inflection and character vocals :)
Thank you King Chief! You're very kind! Best wishes to you!
Thank you for doing this!!! I was just looking for a Homeric audiobook that’s actually good. This is fantastic!
Ah! You're very welcome! It's surprisingly difficult to find a good reading, you're right! but actually having read it, and had to read every sentence at least 7 times to get it maybe not exactly right, but as close to right as I could be happy with, maybe it's not so surprising xD
I'm really delighted you've enjoyed it!
Superb! Thank you so much for your work on this!
So glad you enjoyed it, @Fake Charlemagne! :D
God it was great man!!
Thanks for this beautiful reading and masterful work.
Can't wait to hear the rest, at least those portions that u will upload here...
REST OF IT, I WILL BUY😉
Hehe! Thank you, Reza, you're very kind! I'm so glad you've enjoyed it!
This reading has warmed the heart of Apollo.
Reading this to my children over the summer.
That was amazing! Very well read.
Thank you, @Aureus Jackal! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
your narration is quite engaging, looking forward to the rest!
I'm very sorry to say that considering how few people have turned up for the party, more is unlikely. However, there will be an analysis video for this first chapter next week that you will definitely enjoy! 😊 Thank you very much in any case for the kind words!
This was a wonderful performance. Thank you!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for your kind words! :)
Yes!!! Thank you! 😍😍😍
I loved it! Thank you!!
❤️❤️❤️this is magnificent. Please keep them coming
Thank you, Nqobile! 😄🙏 Unfortunately two full weeks of work for this many views is hard to justify. There may be more readings in the future, but not necessarily more of the Iliad unfortunately. There will, however, be an analysis video released on Saturday, which you might enjoy! 😁👍
@@FoolishFishBooks thank you. Will check it out
😍😱😃 Amazing!!!! I'm so glad you are doing this!!!! Very well done, sir!!!!
Ah! Much appreciated, @This Is Darkness! We'll see how much more happens. Will depend to some extent on views of course... 😜
@@FoolishFishBooks Well, I see that Jack Grayle is doing it too, what a small world... hahaha! But, you really have a talent for this format, please consider doing other book(s) I imagine it should be a success!
Love it Denis fantastic work
Thank you, @Nya! So glad you enjoyed it!
So delighted
Absolutely lovely narrating.
Thank you very much, @Suzanne! :D
@@FoolishFishBooks your most welcome. I still hope the numbers of views on this goes up. Your worked so hard on it.
This Rules!!!! You're the best man!
Ah, wow, Gabriel, I'm so glad you liked it! I definitely had a lot of fun putting this together, knowing you actually enjoyed listening to it too makes it even more rewarding!
@@FoolishFishBooks More please!
Thanks! Great work as ususal!
Thank you so much, Vince! Very much appreciated!
I can listen to you read me to sleep and awake. You should become a narrator in truth!
GOD OF THE SILVER BOW....
You warm a pagans heart thank you so much for your effort
Hehe! Happy to serve :D
This makes me so happy.
Ah! I'm so glad :D I was really hoping to bring this to an audience who might normally shy away from it based on its reputation, but looking at the number of views, I'm going to conclude that didn't quite happen xD
@@FoolishFishBooks I'm always wanting to read this but it's so intimidating. Also, you do great voice work, this is even better than expected. Also, I listened to audio before bed and to help me sleep and there is no chanel I'd more like to suport through repeated viewing. So thank you foolish fish for reading me my bedtime story!!!
I remember someone saying once you should do ASMR and this is so much better.
Normally, I prefer to hear the author read their books but since Homer has been dead for thousands of years if he even existed, this is the next best thing! Nice job!
Next best thing to Homer, you say? I'll take it! xD
@@FoolishFishBooks Maybe even better because I don't even speak ancient Greek. :)
@@oaxacachaka 😂
Bravo 🙌!!!
Superb!
Thank you Peter! 😄🙏
Thanks!
Many, many thanks for this, Paul! :D much appreciated!
Thank you Dennis, I've often wanted to tackle this epic, but have been put off by other more, flowery language.
I've done my best o par the language down to be enjoyable to listen to. I hope it helps!
Thanks
Oh, wow, Patrick! That's really very kind indeed! Thank you very much! :D Very best wishes to you!
I hope you decide to do the full book. That other course is WAY outside my budget.
If you did, you'd probably sell quite a few affiliate link copies of the Illiad. I'd certainly get one.
Foly huck! You read well.
Ah! You're very kind! :D
Can you do a book review on initiation into hermetics by franz bardon
Is there more?? If not can there be please??!
You made it come alive .. great job! By the way I came across a great game you might want to check out..it's called ANKH GODS OF EGYPT " and its really fun to play
Oh, boy, I've had my eye on that one... A little out of my price range at the moment ;)
@@FoolishFishBooks yes It is a bit pricey but it's one of ,if not the best games I've played in year's and it works just as well with 2 players as it does with multiple players and $79 US isn't that bad.. when it does cross your path I'm sure you'll be as impressed as I was.
I just tried to give you some money and Google said my card details were incorrect. No. I have the card in my hand, the details were correct. I had to give up, but I think you should know the super thanks doesn't work always and wouldn't work for me. Sorry I can't give you money.
Ah, yes, unfortunately you're not the first person to have reported this. Very frustrating! Anyone still hoping to send money can of course reach my PayPal account at: paypal.me/foolishfish ;)
Thanks for the heads up, and very best wishes to you!
