No. Both epic poems were written by Homer (Greek). The Iliad tells the story of the Trojan War, about the last year of the war. The chief protagonists are Achilles, Agamemnon, Patroclus, Hector, Paris. The Odyssey is about a Greek hero, Odysseus. After the Trojan War, he started his 10 year long journey home (to Itacha), where everybody thought he was dead. Only his wife Penelpoe believed that he would come home. On his journey he had many adventures (the one-eyed Polyphemus, the Sirens, Circe, etc) and finally he got home.

Is Odysseus referred to as Ulyseus in The Iliad?
Ulysses is the latinized version of Odysseus. They are one and the same, but in different languages. He is not to be confused with Ulysses of the James Joyce's book Ulysses, based on the Odyssey.
Was The Iliad and the Aeneid composed at or about the same time?
The Aeneid was written under the rule of Augustus during a time called the Pax Romana (Roman Peace) in about 29 BCE. The Iliad was written down by Homer around the 8th Century BCE, after it had been orally told for many many generations. Dates for the Trojan war (if it actually occurred) are estimated to between 1100 BCE and 700 BCE, so the story after having been told for possibly hundreds of years was probably very corrupted by the time Homer had a scribe write it down.
How long is The Iliad?
a lot My copy of the Iliad has 297 pages. I came across the question on my quest to find out if it was abridged. I don't think it's abridged but it's the W.H.D. Rouse "plain English" translation. It's the same story with many of the same words (translated) but it doesn't have all the stylistic words that Homer original used. So I think the original "epic poem" was a lot longer. Wikepedia claims that it is aprox.15,700 lines. My copy is the seventh printing, 1956. It's published as a MENTOR BOOK by the New American Library. Oh, and it's very small. Okay so there's a bigger more recently published version (http://www.amazon.com/Iliad-Penguin-Classics-Deluxe/dp/0140275363) that is 704 pages and it's dimensions: 8.3 x 5.5 x 1.9 inches.
