Homer- The Greek Poet

Homer is an indefinite figure of mystery, a halo in a dark shadow. Homer was a Greek poet, accredited with writing The Illiad, The Odyssey, and a few other works of literature. His epic poems were broken down into books to make easier to memorize, since he would recite the whole poem in one day, with no breaks. Homer definitely has an unclear past, he also may not have actually wrote both The Illiad and …

…not a sure thing, and he may not even exist. I have no personal opinion on if Homer was one man, or not, but I do know that these poems are very large, and have been changed into book format. As time goes on, it will be even harder to collect information on this man, and so the myth will die, and eventually be forgotten, just as the Grecian gods were. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography** None, sorry
