If yes we can talk about it, if not if you are interested read works of Seferis, Ritsos, Karyotakis, Elytis, Sikelianos and Palamas. Their works are exceptional. That's all I wanted to say.

Unfortuneatly not but I am starting the renaissance in history so hopefully we will touch on it to show how they took influence from the classical arts.

I've been wanting to read some of Homers The Iliad for quite some time. To bad I just can't find it : (.

The Odyssey is actually not that bad. It's actually well written for people back then, and for a blind man

I've read excerpts of Iliad and Odyssey.

Not much else - though I've read, or example, the story of Eurydice and Orpheus, Apollo, and some of the other Greek gods~

If you like stories like Eragon etc. you can read The quest for the Golden Fleece, good story and interesting.

I read the entire Illiad and Odyssey for school. Didn't like the Illiad, but I liked the Odyssey. I'm afraid I've never read anything by the poets, although I'd like to.
