"This is the first collection of scholarly essays on the 'Homeric Hymns', a corpus
of 33 hexameter poems celebrating gods that were probably recited at religious festivals,
among other possible performance venues, and were frequently attributed in antiquity
to Homer. After a general introduction to modern scholarship on the 'Homeric Hymns',
the essays of the first part of the book examine in detail aspects of the longer narrative
poems in the collection, while those of the second part give critical attention to
the shorter poems and to the collection as a whole. The contributors to the volume
present a wide range of stimulating views on the study of the 'Homeric Hymns', which
have attracted much intereset in recent years"--Jaquette
