In a range of essays discussing generically diverse receptions of the epics of Homer in historically diverse contexts, this question is answered in various ways. Rather than considering Homer?s works as literary products, then, this volume discusses the pedagogic dimension of the Iliad and the Odyssey as perceived by later thinkers and writers interested in the parameters of good rule, such as Plato, Philodemus, Polybius, Vergil, and Eustathios. 410 0$aMnemosyne, Supplements$v413. 606 $aKings and rulers in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aKings and rulers in literature. 676 $a883.01 701 $aKlooster$b Jacqueline$0802794 701 $aVan den Berg$b Baukje$01066204 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511661203321 996 $aHomer and the good ruler in antiquity and beyond$92548758 997 $aUNINA
