Structural Oppositions in the Grottaferrata Digenes Akrites

Abstract

The study of Digenes Akrites has by now produced a massive secondary literature. Historians have attempted to trace its references to historical personages, events or places; philologists, linguists, codicologists and others have tried to tackle equally tantalising problems. Here, I attempt to take a fresh look at Digenes and to ask entirely different questions of the poem.
