How reliable is the tradition embodied in the Homeric poems? Their basic historicity was widely accepted in the ancient world: Thucydides and Plato used Homeric data in reconstructing early Greek history and territorial claims could be supported by reference to the epic traditions. Does research in more modern times support this view? Professor Luce examines in detail the world of Homer through the literary and archeological evidence.
