Four essays on the Homeric epics present recent research into performative aspects of language, cognitive theory and oral composition, a re-evaluation of Parry's oral-formulaic theory, and a new perspective on the poem's transmission. These are complemented by studies of the oral nature of Greek proverbial expressions, and of poetic authority within a fluid oral tradition. Two essays consider the significance of the written word in a predominantly oral culture, in relation to star calendars and to Panathenaic inscriptions. Finally, two chapters consider the ongoing influence of oral tradition in the ancient novel and in Roman declamation. These essays illustrate the importance of considering ancient texts in the context of fluctuating oral and literate influences. 410 0$aMnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava.$pSupplementum ;$v218. 606 $aClassical literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterary form$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aLanguage and culture$zGreece 606 $aLanguage and culture$zRome 606 $aOral tradition$zGreece 606 $aOral-formulaic analysis 606 $aOral tradition$zRome 606 $aLiteracy$zGreece 606 $aLiteracy$zRome 615 0$aClassical literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterary form$xHistory 615 0$aLanguage and culture 615 0$aLanguage and culture 615 0$aOral tradition 615 0$aOral-formulaic analysis. 615 0$aOral tradition 615 0$aLiteracy 615 0$aLiteracy 676 $a880.09 702 $aWatson$b Janet$g(Katheryn Janet), 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996237748103316 996 $aSpeaking volumes$9989163 997 $aUNISA
