　　The Cambridge Companion to Homer is a guide to the essential

aspects of Homeric criticism and scholarship, including the

reception of the poems in ancient and modern times. Written by an

international team of scholars, it is intended to be the first port

of call for students at all levels, with introductions to important

subjects and suggestions for further exploration. Alongside

traditional topics like the Homeric Question, the divine apparatus

of the poems, the formulae, the characters and the archaeological

background, there are detailed discussions of similes, speeches,

the poet as story-teller and the genre of epic both within Greece

and worldwide. The reception chapters include assessments of

ancient Greek and Roman readings as well as selected modern

interpretations from the eighteenth century to the present day.

Chapters on Homer in English translation and 'Homer' in the history

of ideas round out the collection.
