Iliad: Books I-XII; With an Introduction, a Brief Homeric Grammar, and Notes (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book delves into the origins of the epic poems attributed to Homer, The Iliad and The Odyssey, providing a fresh perspective on the history of these ancient works. Tracing their development from oral storytelling traditions to the written form we know today, the author challenges traditional assumptions about their composition. By examining the language, structure, and themes of the epics, the author argues that they underwent significant changes and additions over time, reflecting the evolving cultural and historical context in which they were passed down. This in-depth analysis not only sheds light on the origins of these foundational works of Western literature but also provides valuable insights into the nature of epic poetry and its role in ancient Greek society.
