Description
Key Features
Explores horrific motifs as central elements in both well-known and obscure ancient Greek and Roman epic texts.
Argues that ancient epic poetry prioritises psychological disturbance and graphic human physicality over idealised heroism.
Examines the role of unquiet ghosts and supernatural elements in creating narrative tension within classical epics.
Challenges conventional scholarly readings of what constitutes the essence and appeal of epic poetry.
Offers new interpretations of how ancient audiences engaged with and responded to horror in canonical texts.
