Synopsis

Exploring the intricate art of Homeric repetition in the Iliad’s final rhapsody, this study reveals how echoed verses shape meaning and craft.

The inaugural dissertation by Rudolf Peppmüller offers a careful philological turn through the extremera Iliadis rhapsoidia, focusing on verses iterati and their function across the epic’s structure. Readers will gain a clear view of how later poets and earlier Homeric lines interact, with attention to textual variants and critical debate.

  • A detailed examination of repeated verses in the Iliad’s concluding rhapsody
  • Contextual discussion of critics and scholars who shaped Homeric theory
  • Close analysis of how parallel lines are drawn from Iliad and Odyssey
  • Practical notes on how repetition informs meter, style, and interpretation
Ideal for students and readers of classical philology, Homeric studies, and textual criticism seeking a focused, scholarly view of epic composition.
