Ebook: Homers Ilias. Gesamtkommentar: Band IV: Sechster Gesang (Sammlung Wissenschaftlicher Kommentare)

This commentary on the 6th book of the Iliad concentrates on the interpretation of two episodes which have received a great deal of scholarly attention: the encounter between Diomedes and Glaukos, which surprisingly ends with an exchange of weapons and not a duel, and the series of scenes ??;Hector in Troy??, which reveal the hero??s conflicting roles as defender of the city and father of his family.
