Homeric Imagery and the Natural Environment - Hellenic Studies Series
William Brockliss
William Brockliss, responding to George Lakoff’s and Mark Johnson’s analysis of metaphor, explores the Homeric poets’ use of concrete concepts drawn from the Greek natural environment to aid their audiences’ understanding of abstract concepts. In particular, he considers Homeric images associating flowers with deception, disorder, and death.
