Heraclitus Homeric Problems

"Russell and Konstan have produced a wonderful translation of a work that contains something of interest for every classicist and makes an excellent introduction to the important themes it takes in: Homeric criticism, allegorical exegesis, the ongoing "battle" between rhetoric and philosophy, to name only the most obvious and important. Konstan's introduction sets the reader up with an admirably clear discussion of the intellectual background of the work and gives a convincing account of its author, who emerges as an important witness to the confluence of literary, rhetorical, and philosophical thought in the intellectual ambience of the early Roman Empire."Russell, Donald A. is the author of 'Heraclitus Homeric Problems', published 2006 under ISBN 9789004130821 and ISBN 9004130829.
