Recenzii

This commentary is a welcome addition to the scholarly literature, and will undoubtedly serve its intended audience very well indeed.
Pulleyn's horizons are broad, his linguistic foundation impeccable, his enthusiasm and appreciation of Homer's art everywhere evident ... a great deal of hard work and hard thought has gone into this edition, which deserves to be widely used.
Pulleyn's intended readership are undergraduate students and readers who come to Homer for the first time after having been reared on Attic language and literature. These readers will certainly profit from Pulleyn's reliable translation and his thorough treatment of Homeric syntax ... the commentary offers much useful guidance in reading the original text. Readers will also profit from Pulleyn's full introduction, which addresses many of the long-standing problems of Homeric scholarship ... will be useful to readers wishing to tackle liad 1 in the original language.
Informative introduction and rich commentary.
