Homeric Hymns
Performances of Greek epics customarily began with a hymn to a god or goddess--as Hesiod's Theogony and Works and Days do. This new Loeb Classical Library volume contains, in addition to the Hymns, fragments of five comic poems that were connected with Homer's name in or just after the Classical period (but are not today believed to be by the author of the Iliad and the Odyssey). A collection of thirty-three such poems has come down to us from antiquity under the title Hymns of Homer.
Among the longest are the hymn To Demeter, which tells the foundational story of the Eleusinian Mysteries; and To Hermes, distinctive in being amusing. Here too is a collection of ancient accounts of the poet's life.The Hymns range widely in length: two are over 500 lines long; several run only a half dozen lines. The comic poems gathered as Homeric Apocrypha include
