This volume contains 16 articles covering Homeric studies, published in the journal Greece and Rome Studies during the last 25 years. The contributors include some of the best-known scholars in the field. Social values, archaeology, translation, survivals, and, beyond all else, literary quality and compositional technique form the major topics under review. A new introduction by Richard Rutherford sets these articles, the majority of which have been updated by their authors, in the context of recent developments in Homeric scholarship and appreciation.
This book will appeal both to students, linguistic and non-linguistic, and general readers who are looking for authoritative, up-to-date, and wide-ranging surveys of current reaction to and interpretation of the poetry of Homer. The volume contains sixteen articles previously published in the journal Greece and Rome during the last 25 years.
