"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
"...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
This volume completes the major six-volume Commentary on Homer's Iliad prepared under the General Editorship of Professor G. S. Kirk. It opens with two introductory chapters: the first on Homeric diction, the second on the contributions that comparative studies have made to seeing the Homeric epics in sharper perspective.
