Metaphor in Homer: Time, Speech, and Thought
Zanker, Andreas T. (Amherst College, Massachusetts)
Employs conceptual metaphor theory to investigate the use of metaphors of time, speech, and thought to compose and structure the Iliad and Odyssey, and thereby illuminates broader questions concerning the alleged 'primitive' quality of the Homeric conceptual system and the process of composition in performance.
