【古典学新书】牛津荷马《伊利亚特》批评指南
The Oxford Critical Guide to Homer's Iliad
Edited by Jonathan L. Ready
Oxford Critical Guides
Analyzes each book of the Iliad in order, allowing one to study the Iliad as one typically reads it, book by book
Authored by a different contributor for every chapter, this diversity allowing for the exploration of various approaches to the Iliad
Provides translations of all passages discussed, making the book accessible to those who do not read Homeric Greek
Description
The Oxford Critical Guide to Homer's Iliad investigates each of the Iliad's twenty-four books, proceeding in order from book 1 to book 24 and devoting one chapter to each one. Contributors summarize the plot of a book and then explore its themes and poetics, providing both close readings of individual passages and synthetic reviews of current scholarship. This format allows readers to study the poem in the same manner in which they read it: book by book. Differing from other introductions to the Iliad that comprise chapters on specific topics and themes, the volume offers accessible and actionable discussions of concepts pertinent to each book of the poem. Differing from other introductory volumes that are written by a single author, this volume allows for a polyphony of critical voices and showcases the diversity of approaches to the Iliad. Finally, differing from commentaries keyed to the Greek text, this volume is completely accessible to those who do not read Homeric Greek. These features make the volume an essential resource for those studying the Iliad in translation and in the original Greek, for those in classical studies and in other disciplines, and for teachers and students, both those at the undergraduate level and those at the graduate level.
