Synopsis

The Problem Of The Homeric Poems (1878) by William Duguid Geddes is a comprehensive analysis of the Homeric poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey. The author examines the question of their authorship, their historical context, and their significance in ancient Greek society. He explores the theories that have been put forward over the years, including the idea that the poems were written by a single author or by multiple authors, and the possibility that they were the product of an oral tradition. Geddes also examines the themes and motifs of the poems, such as heroism, the role of the gods, and the concept of fate. He argues that the Homeric poems were not just works of literature, but also served as a means of transmitting cultural values and beliefs. The Problem Of The Homeric Poems is an important work of classical scholarship that continues to be widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
