| | According to ancient tradition, the Homeric poems were first written down by Pisistratus in the sixth century B.C. They were later studied, especially by the Alexandrian grammarians, among whom the great critic, Aristarchus of the second century B.C., produced an edition that has been the basis of the poems ever since. | | | Such epics were recited by outstanding poets like Homer, and might later be fixed by written versions. | | | By investigating Yugoslav oral poets of his day Milman Parry (1902-35) established the view that they were the results of a long tradition in which bards recited or sang shorter poems or lays that were the basis of longer poems, such as the Homeric epics. |

| | Cultural Analysis, Volume 1, 2000: Reviews |
| | This is but one example (as far as I know the earliest) of the prodigious influence exerted on world literature studies by The Singer of Tales, which by any measure must be recognized as one of the twentieth century's most enduring works of research and scholarship in the humanities. | | | His hypothesis of traditional heritage soon evolved into a double hypothesis of tradition linked with oral performance, as Parry began to re-create what he believed to be not just the character but the actual presentational medium of the Iliad and Odyssey. | | | The initiative began with Parry's groundbreaking analyses of the texts of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, and with his deduction that their repetitive, formulaic phraseology was symptomatic of their traditional heritage and their transmission by a long series of bards over many centuries. |

| | The epic poets has a repertoire of formulae or tags, adapted for various places in the metre of the poems. | | | Milman Parry was a classical scholar who between 1933 and 1935 was in Yugoslavia studying the oral traditions among the South Slavs. | | | In the course of his work, he could not help but notice the similarities between the oral poetry he was hearing and the formulaic verse of the Iliad. |

| | Avdo was, in Milman Parry's estimation, the finest bard the scholars encountered in their trips through the Balkans. | | | On the basis of Parry's research on South Slavic epic, Albert Lord argued brilliantly (in his Singer of Tales) that the Homeric epics were, like South Slavic song, products of composition-in-performance, a medium of kleos and cultural memory. | | | In the early 30s, an enterprising classicist named Milman Parry had a theory: that certain features in Homer--most notably the inclusion of formulae--indicated that the Homeric poems were oral in original and should therefore be treated differently than written texts. |

| | Parry's collected papers were published posthumously: The Making of Homeric Verse: The Collected Papers on Milman Parry, edited by Adam Parry, his son (Oxford University Press, 1971). | | | In his American publications of the 1930s Parry introduced the hypothesis that this peculiarity of Homer's style is to be explained by its being the characteristic style of oral composition (the so-called Oral Formulaic Hypothesis). | | | The dissemination of the idea of Homer as an oral poet was continued by his student Albert Lord, most notably in The Singer of Tales (1960). |
