In the ancient world Homer was recognised as the fountainhead of culture. His poems, the 'Iliad' and the 'Odyssey', were universally admired as examples of great literature which could never be surpassed. In this study, Jenkyns re-examines the two Homeric epics and the work that is perhaps their closest rival, Virgil's Aeneid.
