Book Synopsis Multitextuality in the Homeric Iliad by : Graeme D. Bird
Book excerpt: These papyri have been described as "eccentric" or even "wild" by some scholars. They differ significantly from the usual text of the Illiad, sometimes presenting lines with significantly different wording, at other times including so-called "interpolated" lines that are completely absent from our more familiar version. --
