Excerpt from The Story of the German Iliad: A School Reader for the Sixth and Seventh Grades The story of the 'Horned Siegfried,'" says Carlyle, "is a real child's-book and people's-book among the Germans," and he commends the zeal with which "learned professors lecture on the Nibelungen in public schools with a praiseworthy view to initiate the German youth into a love for their fatherland."

We don't know who wrote the great German epic poem of the High Middle Ages. But the cultural and aesthetic significance of the narrative is undeniable. In it, the hero Siegfried comes to ask for the hand of a princess in marriage. The tragic tale leads us through the murder of Siegfried and ultimately revenge through justice. Dubbed by German scholars "the German Iliad", it was held up for generations as an emblem of German nationalism.

"Spectacular and constantly surprising." -Ken Burns Written with the authority of a scholar and the vigor of a bestselling narrative historian, The War That Killed Achilles is a superb and utterly timely presentation of one of the timeless stories of Western civilization. As she did in The Endurance and The Bounty, New York Times bestselling author Caroline Alexander has taken apart a narrative we think we know and put it back together in a way that lets us see its true power. In the process, she reveals the intended theme of Homer's masterwork-the tragic lessons of war and its enduring devastation.

At the centre of the commentary on Book 19 of the Iliad is the interpretation of speeches and events at the assembly of the Achaean army. It is here that the argument between Achilles and Agamemnon was settled, thus enabling the Achaeans to take the field in the decisive battle against Hector and the Trojans.
