Some have argued that point of view also serves as a significant component of epic style. Most studies that claim that Homer employs a perspectival method of narration have limited themselves to the study of the relationship between the points of view of the narrator and the various characters of Homeric epic. This book argues that Homer, the poet of the Iliad, may be fully distinguished from the narrator of Homeric poetry and also from the heroes and heroines who live within the world of the story.}, recid = {1380777}, pages = {ix, 251 pages ;}, address = {Ann Arbor :}, year = {1997}, }
