"Menelaos Christopoulos offers a detailed, original, and thought-provoking analysis of the major thematic questions raised by the Homeric Odyssey. The interpretations in this book shed new light on this emblematic literary work of Western civilization"--

Strange Instances of Time and Space in the Odyssey explores several aspects of the Homeric Odyssey, focusing on the complex relationship between time and space in Odysseus' maritime wondering. Using nostos as a mega-theme, Menelaos Christopoulos closely examines Odysseus' trips to the strait of Skylla, the island of Calypso, and the Underworld, questioning the intriguing analogies between Odysseus, Penelope, and Telemachus and the end of Odysseus' reign in Ithaca. This book sets forth original arguments, such as that the murder of Palamedes could be the real reason for Poseidon's wrath; that the poem describes a clear-cut distinction between Odysseus and his companions, who perish without leaving any trace of their prior existence with the sole exception of Elpenor; and, finally, that the Odyssey advocates a new and subversive epic model of life based on the preservation of life rather than on heroic death and the pursuit of glory.



Menelaos Christopoulos offers a detailed, original, and thought-provoking analysis of the major thematic questions raised by the Homeric Odyssey. The interpretations in this book shed new light on this emblematic literary work of Western civilization.
