Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the question of the contents, boundaries, and limits of the so-called Epic Cycle, a group of ancient Greek poems connected to but distinct from the works attributed to Homer. The author examines the complex and contradictory statements of a fourth-century AD scholar, Proclus, who claimed to have summarized these poems. By comparing Proclus's account with the actual fragments of the poems, the book argues that Proclus's testimony is unreliable and that the Epic Cycle was not a unified body of work as he claimed, but rather a collection of diverse poems with varying degrees of overlap and contradiction. The author's analysis sheds new light on the nature of the Epic Cycle and its relationship to Homeric epic, providing valuable insights for scholars and general readers alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334619786_0
