In the wake of recent advances in the treatment of longstanding problems pertaining to the interpretation of Homeric poetry, this volume brings together cutting-edge research from a cohort of acclaimed scholars on Homer and the Homeric Hymns. The variety of topics covered spans the entire field of Homeric philology: the methods and solutions provided for a new edition of the Odyssey, the puzzle of the relation between the festival of the Panathenaea and the Homeric text, the disclosure of the meaning of notorious cruces pertaining to arcane formulas, the two emblematic heroes of the Iliad and the Odyssey, Achilles and Odysseus, Homeric poetics, the range and use of repetition in a traditional medium, the composition of the Homeric epics, the Apologoi and 'Cyclic' Narrative, as well as the Homeric Hymns to Hermes and Aphrodite. ?… (altro)

This volume pays homage to Antonios Rengakos, the enterprising and influential professor of Greek at Thessaloniki, on the occasion of his 60th birthday. The editors lavish panegyrics on the honorand in the first three pages of the Introduction. The subsequent six pages offer ample summaries of the twelve contributions.
The “winnowing oar” of the title (cf. Od. 11.121–130) perhaps signals a foray into uncharted territory. We are promised “new perspectives” in Homeric studies; what we in fact get is another collection of various articles on various Homeric topics. The value of the volume depends on the virtues of the individual contributions. In their own different ways, they are all worthwhile, as anyone would guess just from glancing at the list of contributors, “a host of eminent classical scholars” as the editors proclaim. Most of the contributions engage fully with other relevant scholarship.
