The Vita Homeri traditionally attributed to Herodotus is the most complete ancient biography of Homer. This volume presents a new critical edition together with a German translation. It is the first time that all extant Greek manuscripts have been fully collated and evaluated. As well as explaining the dependencies of the individual texts, the recensio provides a contribution to the history of the text and its cultural-historical background.
