In this episode, “The Song of Moses, The Shield of Achilles, and ox-vision Hera,” Gregory Nagy and Keith Stone discuss:
- A new book by Keith Stone: Singing Moses’s Song: A Performance-Critical Analysis of Deuteronomy’s Song of Moses
- The Shield of Achilles in Iliad 18 and in myths about the life of Homer
- The meaning of epithets associated with Hera and Athena, which are sometimes translated into English as “ox-eyed’/’owl-eyed’, or better ‘ox-vision’ Hera and ‘owl-vision’ Athena.
