{"product_id":"9783110271959","title":"Homeric Contexts: Neoanalysis and the Interpretation of Oral Poetry","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume aims at offering a critical reassessment of the progress made in Homeric research in recent years,focussing onits two main trends,Neonalysis and Oral Theory. Interpreting Homer in the 21st century asks for a holistic approach that allows us to reconsider some of our methodological tools and preconceptions concerning what we call Homeric poetry. The neoanalytical and oral 'booms', which have to a large extent influenced the way we see Homer today, may be re-evaluated if we are willing to endorse a more flexible approach to certain scholarly taboos pertaining to these two schools of interpretation. Song-traditions, formula, performance, multiformity on the one hand, and Motivforschung, Epic Cycle on the other, may not be so incompatible as we often tend to think.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040692650224,"sku":"9783110271959","price":224.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783110271959_p0.jpg?v=1763715814","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783110271959","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
