I read ‘The Iliad,’ ‘The Oddysey,’ and ‘Beowulf’ when I was in high school. Followed by parts of ‘Inferno’ and ‘Cantebury Tales.’ In college when studying Japanese, I read ‘The Tale of Genji.’
The long form of ‘sagas,’ whether in poetic or prose form, pull me in. What are some long-form myths and tales you enjoy?
I prefer the Caxton print. I recently finished the Winchester Manuscript, but it was a slightly abridged version. It mostly left out repetitive jousting, but those are my favourite parts!
