Post 471) from Xanga: Age of Bronze
Jun. 18th, 2004 03:19 pm471) I took yesterday off. It was so nice to just stay at home quietly... something I've done very little of recently.
I read Volume I of "A Thousand Ships: Age of Bronze" by Eric Shanower. It's a graphic novelization of the Trojan War, and was extremely well-researched from an archaeological standpoint. It's also exhaustive in its treatment of all the myths and stories surrounding the Trojan War, having a cast of hundreds and covering almost everything remotely connected to the war. It summarizes pretty much my entire Classics degree (at least, the parts that related to Bronze Age Greece), in comic book form. I recommend it and I plan to buy myself a copy soon...
