Porter Explores The Sources Of Homers Mystique And Their Impact Since The First Recorded Mentions Of Homer In Ancient Greece.Homer: The Very Idea Considers Homer Not As A Man, But As A Cultural Invention Nearly As Distinctive And Important As The Poems Attributed To Him, Following The Cultural History Of An Idea And Of The Obsession That Is Reborn Every Time Homer Is Imagined.
