Title: Homer Author: Barbara Graziosi Narrator: Anne Flosnik Format: mp3 Length: 3 hrs and 28 mins Release date: 06-28-19 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 22 ratings Genres: Greece Publisher's Summary: In Homer, Barbara Graziosi considers Homer's famous works and their impact on readers throughout the centuries. She shows how The Iliad and The Odyssey benefit from a tradition of reading that spans well over two millennia, stemming from ancient scholars at the library of Alexandria, in the third and second centuries BCE, who wrote some of the first commentaries on the Homeric epics. Summaries of these scholars' notes made their way into the margins of Byzantine manuscripts; from Byzantium the annotated manuscripts traveled to Italy.
