Excerpt from Handbook of Homeric Study As the authorities followed are usually referred to in foot-notes it is hardly necessary here to specify fully the obligations I am under to published works. I have, as I hope, made it clear that the most inspiring book I ever read on Homer - it has been like the key to a Sphinx's riddle - was the late Professor Geddes' work, The Problem of the Homeric Poems. I also, naturally, owe much to the various publications on Homer of Dr. Monro, vice-chancellor of the Uni versity of Oxford; to Sir Richard Jebb's Introduction to Homer; and to Professor Percy Gardner's New Chapters in Greek History. I may add that the intro ductory chapters in Professor Bury's new H istory of Greece appear to me to compress much learning into a compact and interesting form. The monumental work, A Companion to Greek Study, just issued by the Syndics of the University Press of Cambridge, would have been of immense benefit to me had it been in my hands before my last sheets were going through the press, when I could barely avail myself of its wonderful wealth of learning. Although on quite differ ent lines, my Scheme of Approximate Chronology of the Poems was first suggested by Mr. H. R. Hall's very useful Scheme of Mycenaean Chronology.

A brief yet comprehensive survey of Greek literature from Homer to Lucian. Rose's stated intention for this companion volume to A Handbook of Latin Literature was that it be a work that "covers the whole field, is of moderate length yet not so short as to include the principle authors only..."
