Synopsis
Acknowledging that Homer is a poet, not a staff instructor, Albracht works carefully through the Homeric text to produce a persuasive picture of the workings of battle in the "Iliad", in two parts: Part 1 the council of war, marshalling of the troops, the use of chariots, the advance into battle, the standing fight, the massed attack and defence, retreat, flight and pursuit; in Part 2 protection in the field, attack and defence of a fortified camp and the siege and defence of a fortified city. Throughout he offers the reader explanations of the details of the battle narrative.

À propos des auteurs
Dr Albracht was one of the scholars who worked on Ebeling's Homeric Lexicon (successive editions from 1871). He published the first part of Kampf und Kampfschilderung bei Homer in 1886 when he was teaching at the prestigious Schulpforte in eastern Germany, the second in 1895 when he was headmaster of the nearby cathedral grammar school at Naumburg an der Saale.
Peter Jones was co-founder of The Friends of Classics, Senior Lecturer in Classics at the University of Newcastle, and one of the best-known figures in the teaching of the Classics. He regular contributed to national newspapers (The Daily Telegraph, The Spectator and TLS), and the author of highly successful books such as Learn Latin, Learn Ancient Greek and the Classics in Translation (also published by Bloomsbury).
