Velkolepý antický epos Ilias, líčící obléhání Tróje, začíná ve vojsku stiženém morovou nákazou. Výpravnou epickou báseň o šestnácti tisících verších z 8. století př. n. l. dějově sjednocuje téma Achilleovy urážky a jeho hněvu, znovu a znovu však k nám z děje proniká tragicky sžíravý pocit lidské smrtelnosti. Hrdinové podstupují volbu mezi všedností a stálou blízkostí smrti jako běžnou součást každodennosti. Ilias ukazuje i hranice takového postoje: v závěru je Achilleovi dovoleno , aby alespoň na okamžik překročil svůj stín a pocítil společně s otcem muže, jehož v boji zabil, hořkost a nesmyslnost lidského údělu. Tento pocit v lidech ostatně vzbuzují i bohové, jejichž jednání je kruté, lstivé a nevypočitatelné – jako samotný osud. Tři tisíce let, možná déle, se potýkáme stále se stejnými pocity, které kotví v lidské povaze, a tak nás v dnešním bolestně tápajícím světě homérské příběhy oslovují naléhavěji než jindy. Homérovo líčení si v překladu Vladimíra Šrámka zachovává svěžest i po téměř třech tisících letech. Rušný dobrodružný příběh ve volném, rychle plynoucím rytmizovaném verši nechávajícím vyniknout proud hlavního děje; to je Ilias pro moderního člověka.

The Natural History of Selborne (1789) is the distillation of a lifetime of observing nature, and ranges far beyond White's immediate neighbourhood noted in the title. Written during a turbulent time in world history, it is a celebration of the endeavours of both human beings and animals to survive. White's main aims were to induce readers to pay more attention to the wonders around them, and to advance their knowledge of the variety of life: his success has made this book a classic, and has made his name one of the most revered among British naturalists.
