Media Reviews
It is a pleasure to welcome back into print this corrected reissue of the original 1983 edition. Clay's provocative study guides the reader to useful insights into the complex achievement of the Odyssey, and its value is undiminished . . . * Religious Studies Review *
Jenny Clay's The Wrath of Athena is an acute, original, and subtle reading of the Odyssey . . . I am delighted to see it back in print. -- Charles Segal
. . . invariably vigorous, well-stated, and thoroughly informed . . . * American Journal Of Philology *
Her discussion . . . has much for scholars and teachers, and adds to our understanding of the complexity, ambiguity, and ambivalence in narrative and character in the Oddyssey. * Classical World *
