The Iliad came into existence to be heard from start to finish While this is generally accepted in theory the poem has not been properly studied in light of what this means in practice Many connections which are not obvious when the poem is read become prominent if it is approached as an oral and aural creation particularly if the poem is divided into three segments probably a product of three nightlong sessions of performance This book contends that the shapings that these soundings or sample explorations bring into focus extend from details of wording and theme to the entire moral religious and political significance of the Iliad

The Iliad defines its poetic goal as preserving the kleos aphthiton fame unwithered IX413 of its hero Achilles But how are we to understand the status of the unwithered in the Iliad In Homeric Durability Lorenzo F Garcia Jr investigates the concept of time and temporality in Homeric epic by studying the semantics of durability and decay namely the ability of an entity to withstand the effects of time and its eventual disintegration Such objectsthe ships of the Achaeans the bodies of the dead the walls of the Greeks and Trojans and the tombs of the deadall exist within time and possess a demonstrable durability Even the gods themselves are temporal beings Through a framework informed by phenomenology psychology and psychopathology Garcia examines the temporal experience of Homers gods and argues that in moments of pain sorrow and shame Homeric gods come to experience human temporality If the gods themselves are defined by human temporal experience Garcia argues the epic tradition cannot but imagine its own temporal durability as limited hence one should understand kleos aphthiton as fame which has not yet decayed rather than fame which will not decay
