About

Despite advancements in technology and medicine, the world confronts the same problems, such as war and xenophobia. At the 2024 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C., M.A.R. Habib (“The Qu’ran: A Verse Translation”) and Emily Wilson (“The Iliad”) talked with Clay Smith about their approach to translating classics to show modern audiences what the ancients can teach us.
