Odyssey Tee — Homer | Palimpsest
"ἄνδρα μοι ἔννεπε, μοῦσα — Tell me, O Muse, of the man of many turns."
The oldest voyage in Western literature. Homer's Odyssey opens by calling on the Muse to sing of Odysseus — the man of many turns — and the ten-year journey home from Troy through storm, monster, and the wine-dark sea. Three thousand years on, it's still the greatest adventure ever told.
The design: a Greek ship under sail on the chest, with the poem's famous first words in the original Greek and English beneath — and the complete ten-line proem printed on the back, in Homer's Greek with A. T. Murray's translation. Printed on sea-dark shirts so the gold glows.
The blank: Comfort Colors® 1717 — 100% ring-spun US cotton, garment-dyed for soft, broken-in colour, heavyweight 6.1 oz, relaxed unisex fit, sizes S–3XL.
