Quintus's fourteen-book epic poem includes the death of Achilles and the making of the Wooden Horse. It ends with the great storm that by the wrath of heaven shattered the departing Achaean fleet.Quintus was a poet who lived at Smyrna some four hundred years after Christ. His work, in fourteen books, is a bold and generally underrated attempt in Homer's style to complete the story of Troy from the point at which the Iliad closes. Quintus tells us the stories of Penthesilea, the Amazonian queen; Memnon, leader of the Ethiopians; the death of Achilles; the contest for Achilles' arms between Ajax and Odysseus; the arrival of Philoctetes; and the making of the Wooden Horse. The poem ends with the departure of the Greeks and the great storm which by the wrath of heaven shattered their fleet.Epic poetry, Greek Translations into EnglishTrojan War PoetryEpic poetry, Greek(OCoLC)913902fastGreek literature(OCoLC)947441fastTroy (Extinct city) PoetryMiddle EastTroy (Extinct city)fastTurkeyTroy (Extinct city)fastEpic poetry, Greek Trojan War Epic poetry, GreekGreek literatureQuintusSmyrnaeus,active 4th century,212913Way Arthur S.(Arthur Sanders),1847-1930,MaCbHUPTLCBOOK996218333803316Fall of Troy238762UNISA
