This volume explores how Homer's Iliad constructs competing gendered voices to comment on the heroic value system of the poem's warrior society. Through the discourse of lament, it demonstrates how feminine voices and perspectives are used to illuminate the unsustainable nature of hegemonic masculinity in Homeric society.
