Abstract: Abstract Homer’s characters ‘know’ things and what they do not know is not part of their character and must therefore be due to external factors. When they act in a manner contrary to what they know, they are thought to be in the grip of alien forces. But the presence of the gods, while poetically intriguing, was soon to become philosophically and dramatically unacceptable and with their demise more attention was paid to the inner life of individuals.
