Homer in the Twentieth Century: Between World Literature and the Western Canon
This is a very interesting collection of essays. I don't know much about the literature of the Middle Ages and it was interesting to see how much of Tolkien's work can be understood in that context. I enjoyed all the essays in the volume, though I could have done without Ted Nasmith on himself. I may be a little biased though, since I don't particularly like his paintings.
