註釋"Evidence from the classical period reveals that it was an ancestral custom of the Greeks to worship heroes in the framework of local cults indigenous to their city-states. In spite of all that we know about the hero as a cult figure, there has been, until now, little written about the relationship of this religious practice to the literary dimension of the hero as a figure in poetry. Gregory Nagy's masterful book bridges this gap, serving as an introduction both to the concept of the hero in Hellenic civilization and to the poetic forms through which the hero is defined: the Iliad and Odyssey, in particular and archaic Greek poetry in general" --
