Sense and Nonsense in Homer: A consideration of the inconsistencies and incoherencies in the texts of the Iliad and the Odyssey

Product Description
An examination of passages in Homeric texts which either present semantic or logical difficulties or are incoherent or inconsistent. Extracts from the Iliad and the Odyssey are translated into English with a detailed analysis of ambiguous terms. Wilson illustrates that translators in the past have tended to ignore literary accuracy in favour of producing a readable story.
