5.0 out of 5 stars
Great overall discussion of Homer and the tales.,
This review is from: Homer: His Art and His World (Paperback)
The title says it all. This book gives the reader information on Homer the Man, Homer the poet, a discussion of the Iliad and the Odyssey, general background information, etc. As a Homerphile, I really enjoyed it. Don't be put off by the fact that it's a translation from German -- the writing (translation) is very good, very smooth. The bibliographies contain references in English and French as well as German. I'd like to read some more of Latacz' work. This book is for the general reader, not for the ancient Greek expert.
