Review
"...extraordinary new study of Books 13-16....Janko clearly knows the Iliad (and, indeed, all early Greek poetry) inside and out, and has one interesting and insightful thing after another to say about it. This is thus an extremely important book...." S. Douglas Olson, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
