I’ve read the Iliad and the Odyssey.
It does not need a trigger warning.

We used the interlinear version.

Me too but I was surprised by the level of violence in the Iliad when I first read it. Granted it was about a war but I guess I had been overly influenced by classic Hollywood war movies of which many were pretty tame in comparison.

I recall Mrs. Heilman reading this to used in late grade school every morning for a half-hour. I still recall much of it.
