What reading level is Quintus Smyrnaeus And the Homer of the Tragic Poets book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

This view enables us to appreciate at its true value a well-known passage of Aristotle in the Poetics, 23. "Homer takes a part of the war, but introduces many incidents (eVetcroSta), while others take as their theme one hero or period or complex action, as the composer of the Cypria and the little Iliad; for which reason, while only one or two tragedies are composed respec- tively from the Iliad and the . Odyssey, from the Cypria there are many, and from the little Iliad more than eight. " Of c...ourse, if my reasoning is right, then the explanation of an undoubted fact given by Aristotle is the wrong one.
WAS QUINTUS AN IMITATOE OF OUR HOMER?
HAVING proved by numerous quotations from the tragic poets that the Posthomerica of Quintus i. E. His epitome from the Cyclus was, in the main, the " Homer " with which they were familiar, I proceed to another important and interesting, though rather difficult inquiry. Do these epics follow the narratives of the Iliad and the Odyssey, or are they apparently independent of them ?
