Eudocia Augusta:Homerocentones Greek edition

This is the first complete and critical edition of the Homerocentones, a biblical pastiche poem composed entirely of verses from the Iliad and Odyssey. This neglected poem, an ingenious synthesis of Homer and the Bible, is important as it sheds light on the reception of Homeric poetry in later antiquity. M. D. Usher has carefully edited the text of a unique, previously unused manuscript. In this edition, the sources of all the Homeric lines appear in the margins of the text, and there is an apparatus to indicate how and where Eudocia's text differs from the received text of Homer. The Praefatio addresses the poem's unusual textual history, and contains Eudocia's prologue. Indexes of citations and of lines containing Homeric variae lectiones make this edition easy to consult.
