At a celebration on Mount Olympus, a golden apple marked 'for the most beautiful' appears without warning-setting off a bitter rivalry among Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite. What begins as a divine dispute soon spills into the human world, drawing Paris, Helen, Menelaus, Agamemnon, Hector, and Achilles into the legendary ten-year war between Greece and Troy.Adapted and translated into Ancient Greek by Seumas Macdonald-one of the world’s leading teachers of communicative and comprehensible Ancient Greek-this story is based on Bellum Troianum: A Latin Novella (Storybase Books, 2021) by Brian Gronewoller. Designed for novice and intermediate readers, it offers a clear and engaging introduction to the epic traditions of Homer and Vergil.Level: FERF Scale: Elementary MidTotal Words: 5067Word Forms: 943Headwords: 430Storybase Books publishes novellas to help beginners learn Latin and Greek by reading.
