Adam Parry, who was a Professor of Classics at Yale and lectured in the University of London until his premature death in 1971. During his short career, he wrote a number of highly respected articles in the major classics journals on subjects ranging from Homer (his special interest) to Attic tragedy, Thucydides and Virgil. This volume gathers together 18 essays including "Have We Homer's Iliad?", "Landscape in Greek Poetry", "The Two Voices of Virgil's Aeneid", three posthumous works on Virgil, Thucydides and Homer, and the introduction to his father Milman Parry's book "The Making of Homeric Verse".
