NOTES AND BIBLIOGRAPHY

1. Leaf, Walter, "The Manuscripts of the Iliad," in The Journal of Philology, XVIII, (1890), 180-210.

2. Julian, 347 C.

3. This Inscription is published in Oxford Homer, V, 243.

4. Schmidt, Nathaniel, "Bellerophon's Tablet and the Homeric Question in the Light of Oriental Research," in Transactions and Proceedings, Am. Phil. Association, LI, (1920), 56–70. Professor Schmidt sees in the folded claytablets of Babylon the explanation of the secret message carried to Lycia.

5. Shepard, W. P., "Chansons de Geste and the Homeric Problem," in American Journal of Philology, XLII, (1921), 193-233. This article has never attracted the attention it so richly deserves. The many parallels are most illuminating.

6. Scott, John A., The Unity of Homer. Berkeley, California, 1921. In this the discussion of the origin of the Homeric poems is given at length, and it also contains a somewhat extended bibliography of that subject. Hence the omission of both discussion and bibliography in this book.

7. Wirth, Hermann, Homer und Babylon, pp. 19 ff. Freiburg, 1921.

8. Leaf, Walter, Troy, A Study in Homeric Geography, London, 1912, contains an extended and most valuable discussion of the historical setting of the Iliad. His Homer and History, London, 1915, takes up the history and geography of the Greek " Catalogue of Ships" and of the Odyssey.

9. Robert, Carl, Bild und Lied, Archaeologische Beiträge zur Geschichte der griechischen Heldensage, 95 ff.

Volume V of the Philologische Untersuchungen edited by A. Kiessling and U. von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff.

10. Bréal, M., Pour Mieux Connaitre Homère, p. 104. Paris, no date.

11. Keller, Helen Adams, The Story of My Life, p. 110. New York, 1902.

12. Lubbock, Sir John, Introduction to Pope's Iliad. London, 1891. Sir John quotes Pope's translation of Iliad VI, 263, to prove that Hector regarded Paris as the husband of Helen and not her paramour. "But thou thy husband rouse and let him speed." The real translation is, "But send thou this man on." The word husband is not suggested by the original.

13. Coleridge, S. T., Biographia Literaria, II, 11. 14. The Goblet of Life, ninth stanza.

15. Napoleon while encamped on the plains of Lombardy is said to have brooded over the fate of Achilles. Symonds, J. A., Studies of the Greek Lyric Poets, I, 123.

16. The figures for similes and tropes are given by Rothe, Karl, in Die Odyssee als Dichtung, p. 266. Paderborn, 1914.

17. Dixon, W. M., English Epic and Heroic Poetry, p. 20. London, 1912.

21. Dixon, page 24 of work just quoted.

22. On Homer as the "poet," Professor A. M. Harmon in Classical Philology, XVIII, (1923), pp. 35 ff. and a paper by me in The Classical Journal, XVII, (1922), pp. 330 ff.

23. These figures are those of Sir Frederic Kenyon as published in The Journal of Hellenic Studies, XXXIX, (1919), pp. 1 ff. Since the publishing of his figures important Homeric papyri have been discovered and published by professors of the University of Michigan.

24. Symonds, J. A., Studies in the Greek Poets, Chapter

on Alexander, suggested to me this paragraph on Achilles and Alexander.

25. The article on "Ennius" in Pauly-Wissowa.

26. Conington, John, Introduction to the Aeneid. London, 1872-6.

27. This chapter on the Renaissance is heavily indebted to Finsler, Georg, Homer in der Neuzeit von Dante bis Goethe, Leipzig und Berlin, 1912; also to a paper by Professor Cornelia G. Coulter, not yet published; and to Toynbee, Paget, Dante Studies and Researches. London, 1902.

28. Dixon, the work already quoted, p. 278.

29. Elton, Oliver, A Survey of English Literature from 1830-1880. London, 1912.

30. Mustard, W. P., Classical Echoes in Tennyson. New York, 1904. This little book is a remarkable combination of erudition and literary appreciation.
