Mias bokhörna: En smakebit på søndag v. 33

"I answered, Circe, how can you command me to treat you gentle, when you turned my men to pigs, and you are planning to play tricks in telling me to come to bed with you so you can take my courage and my manhood when you have got me naked? I refuse to come to bed with you, unless you swear a mighty oath that you will not form plans to hurt me anymore.

When I said that, at once she made the oath as I had asked. She vowed and formed  the oath, and then at last I went ut to the dazzling bed of Circe."

Robert på bokbloggen Mina skrivna ord skriver så här om sin lördagsutmaning: Veckans mening. "Varje lördag presenterar jag en mening från boken jag läser. En mening som har fått mig att stanna upp. Den kan vara humoristisk, men den kan även vara allvarlig. En mening att lägga några sekunder på. Häng på!"

 "Muse, tell me how he wandered and was lost when he had wrecked the holy town of Troy, and where he went, and who he met, the pain he suffered on the sea, and how he worked to save his live and bring his men back home."

Min Veckans mening v. 33 kommer ur Homer, The Odyssey. Translated by Emily Wilson
