[Answer] 4. The true identity of the author (or authors) of "The Odyssey" and "The Iliad" is not known. To which name are these great classics attributed?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "4. The true identity of the author (or authors) of "The Odyssey" and "The Iliad" is not known. To which name are these great classics attributed?"



...1. Hauser 2. Plato 3. Ovid 4. Homer Though "The Odyssey" and "The Iliad" are two of the cornerstones of Western literature, nothing concrete is known about their authorship. They have been attributed to 'Homer' since ancient times, but modern scholarship questions the veracity of this attribution. Did this 'Homer' really exist? Were these great works written by the same author or two different authors? Were they tales passed orally through generations? Were each of them written by several authors? It's likely that the facts of the matter will never be known. It's equally likely that they will remain two of the most revered masterpieces of Western literature.

...1. Danielle Steel 2. Jodi Picoult 3. Annie Proulx 4. J.K. Rowling Growing up in England, J.K. Rowling didn't have much of a writing background, just some little stories written when she was a child. Then, in 1990, while taking a train from Manchester to London, the idea of a boy (whose name would be Harry Potter) attending a wizardry school popped into her head. She started writing about him when she got home. That turned into 4,100 pages in seven books over sixteen years. The final installment, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" became the fastest-selling book in history, selling 11 million copies on its first day of release. Then there were the movies and the merchandising. No doubt, the goblins would love to have her deposit her gazillions of Galleons in the Gringotts Bank.
