About this product

Product Information

The Homeric Question has vexed scholars for centuries. Who was Homer, when and where did he live and was there more than one author of the Iliad and the Odyssey'. In this lively and innovative investiagtion the author, using the evidence of comparative linguistics and anthropology, puts forward a model which suggests that the poems as we know them today emerged from an evolutionary process in which composition, performance and the passage of time interacted. An important and provocative re-examination of the oral tradition.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
