Synopsis
This book collects together the major published works, as well as some previously unpublished items, by Parry, who remains a major figure in Homeric studies. His work, which had been edited by his son, connected disparate contentions and observations made by preceding scholars on the Homeric question (as to who composed the poems, for example, and how they were composed). In formulating a consistent picture of what Homeric poetry was and what the conditions were that allowed it to come into being, his work continues to have a major impact in classics.
This is a paperback reissue of a title first published by Clarendon Press in 1970.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Milman Parry, who died in 1935 while a young assistant professor at Harvard, is now considered one of the leading classical scholars of this century. Yet Parry's articles and French dissertations--highly original contributions to the study of Homer--have until now been difficult to obtain. The Making of Homeric Verse for the first time collects these landmark works in one volume together with Parry's unpublished M.A. thesis and extracts from hisYugoslavian journal, which contains notes on Serbo-Croatian poetry and its relation to Homer. Adam Parry, the late son of the scholar, has translated the French dissertations, written an introduction on the life andintellectual development of his father, and provided a survey of later work on Homer conducted in Parry's glorious tradition. This volume collects for the first time the works--articles, M.A. thesis, dissertations, and journal extracts--of Milman Parry, whose death at thirty-three brought to a precipitous end the career of one of the leading classical scholars of our century.
