		Homer's repeated phrases and verses were shown to be explainable as a technical device to assist the rapid composition of poems as they were recited, not a sign of scribal corruption or sloppy editing of independent short songs.
		The heart of the book, however, was the work of Lord's teacher, Milman Parry, who had died in 1935 leaving a seven-page draft of his projected synthesis.

		Before the end of the century, Lord's masterwork, Singer, was to stimulate activity in more than 150 separate language areas as well as across a wide spectrum of disciplines—anthropology, folklore, history, linguistics, literary studies, music, philosophy, psychology, and religious studies, to name only the most prominent ones.
		Indeed, it is perhaps Lord's most important and durable legacy that this book has inspired pathbreaking studies in French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Irish, Welsh, Chinese, Japanese, and literally dozens more traditions, not to mention religious studies and a plethora of African and Indian languages.

		No theory about Homeric dictation can be called a "keystone in the Parry-Lord model." Even the most plausible of the dictation theories, the original formulation of Albert Lord himself, is not a "keystone" of his model of oral traditional composition.
		Since Lord made it his policy to avoid unfounded speculations about any unique occasion for Homeric dictation, my disagreement is not with his model.
		Albert Lord's model of composition-in-performance applies not only to epic but also to lyric traditions (1996.22-68).
