Fagles began translating Homer's Odyssey in 1990, immediately following his completion of the Iliad. His translation was published in 1996 to widespread critical acclaim and popularity. This subseries includes correspondence with Bernard Knox and others regarding Fagles's plans and progress with regards to the translation, as well as early and revised drafts, including those with extensive comments by Knox, and a later complete copy-edited version. Jacket design materials, preliminary versions of source maps, genealogies, glossaries, and notes, correspondence regarding publishing and promotion, sales and royalties records, and contracts with Viking Penguin are also present, along with reposes, reviews, and interviews related to the book. During and immediately following his work on the Odyssey, Fagles made frequent appearances at translation symposia, public readings, festivals, Princeton events, lecture series at universities, and high school classes to discuss and read from his work. He kept files documenting each of these appearances, which can be found in this subseries. Fagles also kept track of mentions of his translation in various publications and television programs, which are also present. Since Fagles's public appearances in the late 1990s often regarded his translations of both of Homer's epics, researchers should note that this subseries also contains some materials that relate to the Iliad as well as the Odyssey.
