Homer's Critics
Dorotheus spent his whole life trying to elucidate one single word of Homer.
Zoilos (3 syl.), the grammarian, was called "Homer's Scourge" (Homeromastix, because he assailed the Iliad and Odyssey with merciless severity.
As some deny that Shakespeare is the author of the plays which are generally ascribed to him, so Wolf, a German critic (1759-1824), in his Prolegomena ad Homerum, denies that Homer was the author of the Iliad and Odyssey. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
