An 1836 ‘original’ translation.
I like the collective collaboration of performers idea.
The theatre was the main political an social medium of the age and there where thousands of theater groups throughout ancient Greece, so maybe the performance group was collectively known as ‘Homer’ ,The Stories of ‘Homer’.
Hmmm, like that ,it would have the same harmonizing effect on the text.
Wish we had a time machine.

Well we know there was a group, the Homeridae (Children of Homer), the question is did they descend from Homer in some way, or did they make him up.
