Synopsis

Excerpt from Selections From Homer's Iliad: With an Introduction, Notes, a Short Homeric Grammar and a Vocabulary

The notes have been adapted to the practical needs of the student. They also contain material which it is hoped will prove interesting in itself and stimulative to further reading. I have, of course, examined the ancient Scholia, which have a peculiar interest on account of their antiquity and literary traditions, and I have made many excerpts from them. I have examined, too, the leading modern editions of the Iliad, and to all of them I acknowledge my indebted ness. I have found particularly useful the standard Ger man'editions, and the edition by the Dutch scholars Van Leeuwen and Da Costa, all of Which are mentioned in the Bibliography (pages xxxiv, xxxv).
