It aims to place the cultural practices represented in the poem against the background of the (agricultural) lived reality of the poem's audiences in the archaic age, and to align the themes of the adventures in Odysseus' wanderings with the events that transpire at Ithaca in the hero's absence. The criminal meat consumption of the suitors of Penelope in the civilised space of Ithaca is shown to resonate with the adventures of Odysseus and his companions in the pre-cultural worlds they are forced to visit. The book draws on folklore studies, the anthropology of hunting cultures, the comparative study of oral traditions, and the agricultural history of archaic and classical Greece. It will also be of interest to narratologists and students of folklore and Homeric poetics. 517 3 $aThe Meaning of Meat & the Structure of the Odyssey 606 $aMeat in literature 615 0$aMeat in literature. 676 $a883/.01 686 $aLCO003000$2bisacsh 700 $aBakker$b Egbert J.$0172351 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961159903321 996 $aThe meaning of meat and the structure of the Odyssey$94423754 997 $aUNINA
