This book aims to provide the reader of Homer with the traditional
knowledge and fluency in Homeric poetry which an original ancient
audience would have brought to a performance of this type of
narrative. To that end, Adrian Kelly presents the text of Iliad
VIII next to an apparatus referring to the traditional units being
employed, and gives a brief description of their semantic impact.
He describes the referential curve of the narrative in a continuous
commentary, tabulates all the traditional units in a separate
lexicon of Homeric structure, and examines critical decisions
concerning the text in a discussion which employs the referential
method as a critical criterion. Two small appendices deal with
speech introduction formulae, and with the traditional function of
Here and Athene in early Greek epic poetry.
