Sinopsis

In ?The Shield of Achilles and the Poetics of Ekphrasis?, Becker explores how Homeric poetry shapes its own reception: how Homer?s reaction to a visual image creates his audience?s response to a literary description. Becker also enters into a fiercely raging literary debate about the modernist, self-conscious elements of Homeric narrative.
