Recursive Desire: Rereading Epic Tradition
Jeremy M. Downes
Examining a diverse array of texts from the Epic of Gilgamesh to Derek Walcott's Osmeros, from the Homeric epics to H. D.'s Helen in Egypt, this book develops a broadened, inclusive tradition of epic poetry, demonstrating the continuities of that tradition across dramatic discontinuities in time, place, worldview, and technology.
