Synopsis
Excerpt from Dares and Dictys: An Introduction to the Study of Medieval Versions of the Story of Troy
Hercules and the embassy of Antenor to Greece - events which, in the nature of the case, could have fallen neither under his observation nor that of his informants and which, for that reason, must be regarded as depriving Dares' history of that degree of ocular consistency that is to be found in Dictys.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates whether two influential ancient Latin histories of the Trojan War, Dares' History of the Destruction of Troy and Dictys' Ephemeris of the Trojan War, may have originated from Greek originals rather than being the original compositions of their purported authors. The author explores the reasons for believing the latter, by thoroughly examining the texts and their historical and literary contexts. Their significance lies in their having influenced medieval European literature and culture for centuries. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330866948_0
