Adventurous, highly sophisticated ... the probing intelligence,
conceptual subtlety and interpretative ambition of this book ought
to ensure it a wide and attentive readership.
*The Classical Review*
A remarkable contribution to both Homeric scholarship and
scholarship on time in antiquity. It boldly reassesses the Homeric
notion of kleos and reconsiders oralist and Neo-analytical
scholarship in light of this.
