How to Kill A Dragon: Aspects of Indo-European Poetics
Watkins, Calvert (Professor of Linguistics and Classics, Professor of Linguistics and Classics, Harvard University)
Watkins demonstrates the continuity of poetic formulae in Indo-European languages from Old Hittite to medieval Irish. Using the comparative method, he shows how traditional poetic formulae of considerable complexity can be reconstructed as far back as the original common languages, thus revealing the antiquity and tenacity of the poetic tradition.
