"Когда-то я в годину зрелых лет В дремучий лес зашел и заблудился..." – так начинается "Божественная комедия", бессмертная поэтическая трилогия, в которой Данте дерзко переосмыслил средневековую традицию "хождений" по загробному миру и религиозных "видений", и создал поистине уникальное произведение, в котором мистика сочетается с философией, а притча – с весьма ядовитым политическим памфлетом. Прошли века.

Stephen Fry a görög mitológia kezdeteit elbeszélő "Mítosz" című könyve után a Héroszok történeteivel folytatja a mesélést. Az isteni származású hősök csodálatos kalandjai és halhatatlan hőstettei Fry könnyed, egyúttal lebilincselő stílusában hol humoros gellert kapnak, hol romantikusan szomorúak. Meghallgathatjuk Héraklész, Medusza és Orpheusz történetét is.

Dating to the ninth century B.C., Homer's timeless poem still vividly conveys the horror and heroism of men and gods wrestling with towering emotions and battling amidst devastation and destruction, as it moves inexorably to the wrenching, tragic conclusion of the Trojan War. Renowned classicist Bernard Knox observes in his superb introduction that although the violence of the Iliad is grim and relentless, it coexists with both images of civilized life and a poignant yearning for peace.

Dante's Inferno by Dante Alighieri. The first part of Dante's Divine Comedy , the "Inferno" (or "Hell"), begins on the night before Good Friday in the year 1300, "halfway along our life's path". Dante is thirty-five years old, half of the biblical life expectancy of 70, lost in a dark wood, assailed by beasts he cannot evade, and unable to find the straight way to salvation. Conscious that he is ruining himself and that he is falling into a deep place where the sun is silent, Dante is at last rescued by Virgil, and the two of them begin their journey to the underworld.

Purgatory is the second part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno, and preceding the Paradiso. The poem was written in the early 14th century. It is an allegory telling of the climb of Dante up the Mount of Purgatory, guided by the Roman poet Virgil, except for the last four cantos at which point Beatrice takes over as Dante's guide.

Durante degli Alighieri, usually referred to simply as Dante, was born in Italy, and lived from c. 1265 to c. 1321. He was a major poet during the Middle Ages. He wrote the famous Divine Comedy, which was originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia). The work was later christened Divina by Boccaccio. It is widely considered the greatest literary work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. In the late Middle Ages, the overwhelming majority of poetry was written in Latin, and therefore accessible only to affluent and educated audiences.

Homer is one of the most important figures in ancient Greek literature, believed to have lived in the 8th century BC. He is most famous for his epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, which are considered to be the founding works of Western literature. The Iliad tells the story of the Trojan War, focusing on the hero Achilles, while the Odyssey recounts the adventures of the Greek hero Odysseus as he attempts to return home after the war. Both works are celebrated for their vivid storytelling, complex characters, and profound exploration of human nature.

El padre de La isla del tesoro solo llegó a publicar dos libros de poemas en vida, pero dejó muchos inéditos. Hacia tierras lejanas recoge una selección de los versos más representativos de su poesía sencilla y cercana, en un estilo directo, realista y melancólico.

Sin embargo, sus versos conjuran paraísos de libertad, parajes entre el sueño y la realidad que maravillan al lector con la misma magia de esas islas, tesoros y piratas que nos cautivaron cuando éramos niños.
