Book Description
Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey have fascinated listeners and readers for over twenty-five centuries. In this volume of original essays, collected to honor the distinguished career of Emily T. Vermeule, thirty-four leading experts in Homeric studies and related fields provide up-to-date, multidisciplinary accounts of the most current issues in the study of Homer. The book is divided into three sections. The first section treats the Bronze Age setting of the poems (around 1200 B.C.), using archaeological evidence to reveal how poetic memory preserves, distorts, and invents the past. The second section explores the early Iron Age, in which the poems were written (c. 800-500 B.C.), using the strategies of comparative philology and mythology, literary theory, historical linguistics, anthropology, and iconography to determine how the poems took shape. The final section traces the use of Homer for literary and artistic inspiration by classical Greece and Rome.

Book Description
There has never been a major study or even a complete critical edition of 6 Ezra, and, indeed, little has been written about it since the nineteenth century. Theodore Bergren's new book fills that gap, offering a detailed analysis of the text and addressing issues of social setting, provenance, date, religious affiliation, and recensional history. Bergren makes this text accessible to a wider audience, while also laying a foundation for future study.
