About This Book

A series of learned essays that begin by surveying controversies about the Homeric poems—authorship, unity, date, and textual trustworthiness—and advocates careful philological and historical reading while outlining how the poems should be taught. The author assesses internal evidence for historic aims, evaluates manuscript and oral-preservation issues, and proposes principles for using Homer as a historical source. A second portion addresses the ethnology of early Greek peoples, tracing tribal names and groups such as the Pelasgians, and combining linguistic, literary, and material evidence to reconstruct the composition and cultural setting of the heroic age.
