Frontmatter; Table of Contents; Introduction; Abbreviations and Sigla; Text and Translation; Epitomai; Backmatter. The Homeric Questions of the philosopher Porphyry (3rd cent. CE) is an important work in the history of Homeric criticism. Porphyry applies the dictum that "the poet explains himself" to solve questions of interpretation in Homer. This new edition of the Questions on the Iliad eliminates much that was wrongly attributed to Porphyry in the old edition (1880). In the interest of the non-specialist, the new text has a facing translation in English. The commentary explains Porphyry's arguments and the editor's textual decisions
Includes bibliographical references and index. - Text in ancient Greek with facing English translation, and commentaries in English. - Description based on print version record
