First line
IN ILIAD 18.592, Daidalos makes not only his first appearance in the Greek imagination, but also his only one in the corpus of Homeric poetry.
From the rear cover
In a major revisionary approach to ancient Greek culture, Sarah Morris invokes as a paradigm the myths surrounding Daidalos to describe the profound influence of the Near East on Greece's artistic and literary origins. Her broad focus on the Mediterranean world combined with her interdisciplinary approach allows for new insights into a wide range of topics, including the meaning of myth, sculpture, the evolution of the alphabet, Homeric poetics, and Attic drama.
