Abstract

Abstract The concluding chapter “reweaves” all the Biblical and Homeric separate threads analyzed throughout the book back together into the poetic textile with which this analysis began, adding some reflections on the poem’s Sitz im Leben, the biases modern scholars faced by engaging with these works, and the challenges of future research. Far from being classroom poetry the I HC is an original classicizing poem representative of late antique reception of Homeric epics, which is different to the authority Virgil held in the Latin speaking West. Similarly, The biblical material does not aim to replace or harmonize the Bible but is a creative revision of both canonical and apocryphal texts and acquainted with the fifth-century theological debates without however taking a strong stance. The I HC do not argue that Homer preached the Gospel but reworked and interpreted the Gospel through the Homeric lens. Ultimately the I HC is a Biblical Homeric Cento, composed by Eudocia.
