Quotes by Nic Fields (?)

“It must be remembered that the Iliad and Odyssey were composed as epic tales and not as historical texts. To use Shakespeare's Macbeth as a source for 11th-century Scottish politics would rather miss the point of the play, and the same is true of the Homeric epics.”
― Nic Fields, Mycenaean Citadels c. 1350–1200 BC
