In a follow-up to his previous Homeric studies, noted classicist
Paolo Vivante explores Homer's verse, highlighting rhythm rather
than metre. Rhythmical qualities, he argues, constitute the force
of the verse-for example, in the way the words take position and in
the way each pause hints suspense, producing an immediate sense of
time. Vivante's main concern is not with the techniques or rules of
the verse-composition, but more philosophically with verse itself
as a fundamental form of human expression. This study will be of
interest to both students and scholars.
