On Quintus Smyrnaeus: And The Homer Of The Tragic Poet is a book written by Frederick Apthorp Paley in 1876. The book is a critical analysis of the work of Quintus Smyrnaeus, a Greek poet who lived in the 4th century AD, and his relationship with the work of Homer, the ancient Greek poet. The book discusses the similarities and differences between the two poets, and how Quintus Smyrnaeus's work was influenced by Homer's epics. Paley examines the themes, style, and language of both poets, and provides a detailed analysis of Quintus Smyrnaeus's epic poem, The Fall of Troy. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Greek literature and poetry, and provides a fascinating insight into the influence of Homer on later Greek poets.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
