Whose Homer Is It Anyway?
- AlbertCory 5y agoWhat can you say about this topic, other than "no one ever had any clue about Homer"? If you consider Socrates or Jesus, at least there are primary sources: writings by people who knew him or knew someone who knew him (I don't want to get into it with anyone about "the historical Jesus." The point is that at least there's something relatively contemporary.) AFAIK there are exactly zero primary sources about Homer.
