The Fall of Troy is an epic poem written by Smyrnaeus, also known as Quintus Smyrnaeus, which tells the story of the Trojan War. The poem is divided into 14 books and follows the events leading up to the fall of the city of Troy, including the abduction of Helen by Paris, the Greek expedition to Troy, and the battles between the Trojans and Greeks. The poem is written in dactylic hexameter, a form of meter commonly used in epic poetry, and is heavily influenced by the works of Homer, particularly the Iliad. However, Smyrnaeus also adds his own unique perspective to the story, including details about the heroes and gods involved in the war. The Fall of Troy is considered an important work of ancient Greek literature and has been studied and analyzed by scholars for centuries. It provides insight into the cultural and historical context of ancient Greece, as well as the values and beliefs of the time. The poem also continues to be read and enjoyed for its engaging storytelling and vivid descriptions of battle and heroism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
