Homer's Odyssey. A giant of global literature, enough said. Before the July release of Christopher Nolan's visual reimagination of this timeless epic poem, we shall launch a series covering various aspects of this work. Today's episode is a primer of some of the Odyssey-related topics we shall discuss including but not limited to:

• Who is Homer?
• Where was he from?
