Review
...intellectually challenging. (Ian Rutherford, Journal of Hellenic Studies )
spellbinding ... Latacz's Troy and Homer offers undergraduates, graduates, and professors a compelling synthesis that whets our desire to learn more. (Adele J. Haft, Scripta Classica Israelica )
This is a vigorous, lucid, up-to-date and, on the whole, convincing book...it is destined to become a classic for our time. (Dr Donald F. Easton, Minerva )
The story is well told, with excellent maps, chronological tables and illustrations; the reader is kept on tenterhooks throughout. (TLS )
Joachim Latacz, the best Homeric scholar writing in German, brings the field up to date. The story is well told, with excellent maps, chronological tables and illustrations; the reader is kept on tenterhooks throughout. He draws attention to, and revives, the insights, many long since neglected, of scholars in the ancient world itself. (TLS )
Latacz's book is a substantial contribution (Joshua T. Katz, Journal of the American Oriental Society, 125.3 )
[Latacz's] expositions bring clarity to many problems, and scholars of Antiquity, too, both young and old, will find ample instruction herein. (G.L. Huxley, Hermathena, Vol. 179 )
Here is to be found much intellectual reward for readers who persevere; many of them will wish to keep a copy of Troy and Homer on their shelves. (G.L. Huxley, Hermathena, Vol. 179 )
