Abstract

PICON CASAS, Javier. The Iliad and the categories of philosophy in the novel. discus.filos [online]. 2009, vol.10, n.14, pp.43-61. ISSN 0124-6127.

Though Homer's writings are literary, we can feel a serie of thesis about his metaphysic and his language. First, we define the three classical categories of the ancient novel. Second, we speak about the role of the homeric narrator. Third, we expose some examples about the reversibility of de homeric descriptions. Finally, we show how the vision of Homeric's world and his narrative language depends of his religious ideas (that entails all the development of metaphisics and science (instead of the ethics) in the Arcaic and Classical Philosophy).

Keywords : Explication; interpretation; Iliad; Homer; homeric narrator; judgment.
