A Preclassical Text of Homer in the Making --$tBibliography --$tIndex Locorum 330 $aHomer the Preclassic considers the development of the Homeric poems-in particular the Iliad and Odyssey-during the time when they were still part of the oral tradition. Gregory Nagy traces the evolution of rival "Homers" and the different versions of Homeric poetry in this pretextual period, reconstructed over a time frame extending back from the sixth century BCE to the Bronze Age. Accurate in their linguistic detail and surprising in their implications, Nagy's insights conjure the Greeks' nostalgia for the imagined "epic space" of Troy and for the resonances and distortions this mythic past provided to the various Greek constituencies for whom the Homeric poems were so central and definitive. 410 0$aSather classical lectures ;$vv. 67. 606 $aEpic poetry, Greek$xHistory and criticism 606 $aOral tradition$zGreece$xHistory$yTo 1500 615 0$aEpic poetry, Greek$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aOral tradition$xHistory 676 $a883/.01 700 $aNagy$b Gregory$0169582 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810699303321 996 $aHomer the preclassic$94087384 997 $aUNINA
