Uncover a revolutionary perspective on Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey through the intricate world of classical reception and visual art. This compelling study explores how sculptural assemblage reimagines Homer’s compositional systems, drawing parallels with oral-formulaic techniques. Presenting Homer not as a singular author, but as a generative system, it highlights the profound complexity of his artistry. An essential read for students of classical literature, art history enthusiasts, and scholars exploring the enduring influence of ancient Greek poetics in India.
