Histoire
Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary thinkers in Western philosophy and Thus Spoke Zarathustra remains his most influential work. It describes how the ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from his solitude in the mountains to tell the world that God is dead and that the Superman, the human embodiment of divinity, is his successor. With blazing intensity, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission, but in an all-powerful life force: passionate, chaotic and free.

Auteur(s): Homer
Description
For thousands of years, Homer's ancient epic poem the Iliad has enchanted readers from around the world. When you join Professor Vandiver for this lecture series on the Iliad, you'll come to understand what has enthralled and gripped so many people.
Her compelling 12-lecture look at this literary masterpiece - whether it's the work of many authors or the "vision" of a single blind poet - makes it vividly clear why, after almost 3,000 years, the Iliad remains not only among the greatest adventure stories ever told but also one of the most compelling meditations on the human condition ever written.
As you'll learn, the grandeur and immediacy of Homer's world would seem to defy time and space. Throughout these lectures, you'll explore this legendary era in brilliant, unforgettable hues. You'll meet its towering heroes who thirst for honor and the gods who inspired and instigated them. You'll go deep inside the shattering battles at Troy that act out mankind's awesome passions for glory, love, and vengeance. But more than that, you'll focus on the timeless human issues this masterpiece raises, all of them evoked by the power of a single dramatic question: Why does Achilles rage? The limits of freedom, the common humanity we share, the line between justice and revenge, the nature of destiny, the meaning of life - Professor Vandiver uses the Iliad as a potent lens through which to study them all.

Made the Iliad easy to understand
This course was helpful in understanding The Iliad. I enjoyed that it was broken down into short sections. I listen to this course at the same time as the book to give me a greater understanding. I particularly enjoyed the narrator. she was very knowledgeable and was easy to listen to.

Great lecture to listen to by narrator and professor
Great summary of plot and analysis bit by bit by professor Vandiver, with it we can interpret the meanings of the story and how it connects to human nature and what it means to be human. Would 100% recommend. Short and sweet.

Excellent analysis and narration
These lectures on the Iliad are erudite, yet completely accessible. The instructor’s choice of passages to deal with in depth is impeccable. What a treat after so many silly analyses/interpretations of the masterpiece. Thank you Ms Vandiver
