Homer on Life and Death cover

The Iliad' and Odyssey' are not just good stories. Homeric poetry manages to confer significance on the persons and actions, and to interpret the world and human life and death. This book shows how this is done.

Griffin's book provides the intellectual stimuli which are important for my students at the beginning level and which should prove even more thought-provoking for my honors students. * David J. Bradshaw, Warren Wilson College *
