I'm surpised nobody here has brought up the issue of who wrote the Illiad 
and the Odyssey. 

About the only thing most modern lit. scholars can agree on is that they 
weren't written by the same person, or even one person. The stories were a 
part of the oral tradition for hundreds of years before they were written 
down. so it is wrong to attribute them to one "Homer."
