<p>Is there any truth in the Odyssey, and what does it all mean? We know it's a story where a man convenes with monsters and gods, ghosts and mythological beings, but the Odyssey actually does tell us a lot about Ancient Greece - about traditions, anxieties, storytelling, geography, values and what it is to be human.</p><br><p>In this episode, Dan is joined by world-leading classicists Professor Dame Mary Beard and Professor Edith Hall to break down Homer's epic poem to make sense of its history, characters, the mythology, what is based in truth and what we do and don't know about its elusive author.</p><br><p>Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore</p><br><p>You can enjoy more history from Mary Beard in her podcast Instant Classics.</p><br><p>We need your help!
