Excerpt from The Homeric Hymns They are not the work of. Any one author or age. It is improbable that any of them was composed earlier than the first Olympiad - b.c. 776, though Muller was of opinion that this collection contained specimens belonging to every century between Homer and the Persian wars.

(p. xiii); and to Dr. Sandys, who read some of the explanatory notes at an early stage, and has given kindly help throughout the preparation of this book. The Bibliographies prefixed to the Introductions of the longer Hymns are not intended to be exhaustive, but include the principal works bearing on the Hymns which have been published since 1886. The literature previous to that year is quoted by Gemoll. In a few cases reference has been made to works older than 1886, which were neglected by Gemoll.

Excerpt from The Homeric Hymns Who, fretted by the haste of fevered life, Harks to the prisoned voice of murmurous shell, In fancy wanders by the grey sea swell, And rests on quiet shore - mid city strife. Great boon! if brine-crisp air be far away, And the blue infinite of sky be hid, And streets monotonous be round him thrid By care-worn mortals lacking time to stay. So in the shell of old Homeric lays, We hear hymned echoes from the world's prime. When gods were shepherding on hill and plain; And though the simple faith, the glad surprise Of gods revealed, the glamour of old time Be far away, our hearts beat fresh again.

Excerpt from Homer and His Influence There is also a group of thirty-four hymns, the so - called Homeric Hymns, written in the dialect and meter of Homer. These hymns appear to have been used to introduce the recitation of other longer poems and to have been composed in honor of the divinity or hero at whose festival the bard was singing. Some of these hymns might have been the only song then sung, but the shortest could have been nothing more than an introduction to a longer poem. Thucydides quotes one Of these hymns as if it were composed by Homer, but the language is clearly much later than that Of the Iliad and the Odyssey, and although we for convenience, as well as Thucydides, Speak Of these hymns as Homeric, we cannot regard them as the work of Homer. A few minor epigrams, riddles, and the like have found a place in the complete works Of Homer, but they are universally regarded as late and spurious.

A rich source for students of Greek mythology and literature, the Homeric hymns are also fine poetry. Attributed by the ancients to Homer, these prooimia, or preludes, were actually composed over centuries and used by poets to prepare for the singing or recitation of longer portions of the Homeric epics. In his acclaimed translations of the hymns, Apostolos Athanassakis preserves the essential simplicity of the original Greek, offering a straightforward, line-by-line translation that makes no attempts to masquerade or modernize. For this long-awaited new edition, Athanassakis enhances his classic work with a comprehensive index, careful and selective changes in the translations themselves, and numerous additions to the notes which will enrich the reader's experience of these ancient and influential poems.
