This scholarly study of Homer's epic poem, the Iliad, focuses on the often-overlooked tenth book, which describes the treacherous actions of the Trojan spy Dolon. Alexander Shewan provides a detailed analysis of the book's language, verse, and themes, and explores its significance for our understanding of the Iliad as a whole. The book includes extensive textual notes and translations, making it accessible to both specialists and general readers.
