Homer and His Iliad
あらすじ・解説
A groundbreaking reassessment of the Iliad, uncovering how the poem was written and why it remains enduringly powerful
The Iliad is the world’s greatest epic poem—heroic battle and divine fate set against the Trojan War. Its beauty and profound bleakness are intensely moving, but great questions remain: Where, how, and when was it composed and why does it endure?
Robin Lane Fox addresses these questions, drawing on a lifelong love and engagement with the poem. He argues for a place, a date, and a method for its composition—subjects of ongoing controversy—combining the detailed expertise of a historian with a poetic reader’s sensitivity. Lane Fox considers hallmarks of the poem; its values, implicit and explicit; its characters; its women; its gods; and even its horses.
Thousands of listeners turn to the Iliad every year. Drawing on 50 years of listening and research, Lane Fox offers us a breathtaking tour of this magnificent text, revealing why the poem has endured for ages.
批評家のレビュー
“Lane Fox is an Oxford don, and his book the result of a lifetime’s dedication to the Iliad — personally and professionally. As such it is rigorously academic, but also winningly idiosyncratic…. This is a compelling and impressive work.”—Times (UK)
“This is a compelling and impressive work.”—Sunday Times (UK)
“A lucid, scholarly exploration into an immortal work.”—Kirkus
