Beschreibung
Ever since antiquity the two Homeric poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, have been considered to be masterpieces, and their influence on subsequent Greek and Western literature has been immense. In this volume an international team of scholars discusses the poems, their background and composition and, most originally, their subsequent reception down to the present day. Each chapter communicates the best of contemporary scholarship and offers new critical insights of its own, and closes with a guide to further reading on the topic.
