Synopsis "The Alpha-tradition: on the origin of Greek stories (in English)"
Scientists have long disagreed on the origins of Greek mythology and the works of Homer. The Analysts that once dominated these discussions never succeeded in distinguishing between multiple oral traditions in the Iliad and the Odyssey - the earliest surviving works of Greek literature - or in using them to draw conclusions about the Greek Bronze Age and the Mykenaian civilization. Until now, many attempts to recognize the right patterns in Greek mythology and ancient Greek literature have ended in failure.However, in these lengthy literature works, Ward Blondé has discovered five distinct oral traditions, thus proving that the scientific field of Greek literature still holds many surprises. In his book about the Mykenaian Alpha-tradition, Blondé exposes a whole new world, one with hidden stories and numerous narrative patterns that have been overlooked by scientists for centuries. These include an age-old king story, a hero story, and 49 characteristics of the oral tradition. The famous Trojan War is revealed to be a myth, with a history that reaches far into the second millennium BC.
