Casey Due, coeditor of the Homer Multitext, explores both the traditionality and multiformity of the Iliad. Due argues this multiform nature gives us glimpses of the very long history of the text, access to even earlier Iliads, and a greater awareness of the mechanisms by which such a remarkable epic poem could be composed in performance.
A study of captive women's laments that shows how classical dramatists used empathy to pierce the barrier between the Greek and barbarian worlds.
An examination of the figure of Briseis, Achilles' concubine in the "Iliad", as an example of the traditional artistry enabled by the oral poetic system. It argues that Briseis' role in the "Iliad" is enormously compressed, both in relation to the "Iliad" and the tradition of the epic cycle.
This edition, commentary, and accompanying essays focus on the tenth book of the Iliad, which has been doubted, ignored, and even scorned. Casey Due and Mary Ebbott use approaches based on oral traditional poetics to illuminate many of the interpretive questions that strictly literary approaches find unsolvable.
