TOWARD THE CHARACTERIZATION OF HELEN IN HOMER -...

This monograph lays the groundwork for a new approach of the characterization of the Homeric
Helen  focusing on how she is addressed and named in the Iliad and the Odyssey and especially
on her epithets. Her social identity in Troy and in Sparta emerges in the words used to address
and name her. Her epithets  most of them referring to her beauty or her kinship with Zeus and
coming mainly from the narrator  make her the counterpart of the heroes.
