The literary epic and critical theories about the epic tradition are traced from Aristotle and Callimachus through Apollonius, Virgil, and their successors such as Chaucer and Milton to Eisenstein, Tolstoy, and Thomas Mann. Newman's revisionist critique will challenge all scholars, students, and general readers of the classics, comparative literature, and western literary traditions.

Hardcover. Seven pages in the first chapter show HI-LIGHTING IN PINK; Else, Very Good+ in Very Good+ DJ: Both book and DJ show indications of very careful use. The Book shows just a touch of wear to extremities; the binding leans very slightly, but remains perfectly secure. The DJ shows only a short, closed tear and some creases around it at the lower front corner tip; else only a touch of wear to the extremities; very mild rubbing; unclipped; mylar-protected. Clearly, this is a flawed copy, but one that remains structurally sound and tightly bound, showing very light wear: a handsome, if flawed, reading copy.
