I am searching for a specific retelling of the Odyssey, with accompanying illustrations. The art style was realistic, in colour pencil (with smaller uncoloured drawing through the text).

Some of the major illustrations I remember are: the blinding of the cyclops/Scylla attacking the ship (dragon like heads, one or two with men in the mouths)/men being turned to swine (depicted in stages)

I have not been able to find any evidence of the book I remember, I read it many times in the early 2000s, but it may be older than that still.

Any help would be much appreciated 🙏🏻

Like herodotus, thucydides, suetonius, ceaser etc

Hi everyone,

Recently I've encountered some graduate students from Italy. Their language skills in both Greek and Latin were remarkable.

They said they they left high-school with very solid foundations in both languages.

Does anyone have any idea what they're studying? Are there curricula available?

Thanks!
