Homer's Original Genius

Homers Original Genius: Eighteenth-Century Notions of the Early Greek Epic (1688–1798) The querelle des anciens et des modernes - the question whether writers should imitate the classics or use literary forms which seemed more suited to their own era - had been debated in Europe since the earliest days of the Renaissance. This book analyses the development of the querelle following the adoption of the argument of the modernist faction of seventeenth-century France.
