	American Painting: Winslow Homer
		Homer was guided by a belief that the life of the imagination could be lived not in contradiction to but in consonance with the most prosaic practical tasks.
		The interest of the Homer painting is its ability, in effect, to marry the spiritually of the Burne-Jones with the tangibility of the Degas.
		The dreamer in Homer is ultimately compelled to turn outward or inward away from the social group and the realm of the senses to a state of meditation, reverie, or vision.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2004.04.04
		Jones describes how the shots gradually become wider by showing Homer (a) as setting the scene first in the context of the battle between the Greeks and Trojans, then within the broad context of the whole history of the ten-year Trojan war; (b) as dealing with his personages like a "vast cast" (p.
		For Homer's audience the poem was not a simple literary entertainment nor a pure product of poetic invention; it was, indeed, a way to learn about their ancient roots, history, beliefs, and also a way to take examples for their own life from the past poetically transfigured, yet taken for real.
		The only evidence that Jones has introduced to support his statement that the Homeric poetry has little substantial to tell us about the Mycenaean Age is questionable; he hints at the written records, the Linear B tablets, whose contents have no relation with the society of the Iliad.

	Jones
		Homer was determined to create a similar spectacle with his first touchdown but when he discovered that Gifford had to pay a $100 fine for throwing the ball into the stands he quickly decided that he would have to develop a more affordable routine.
		Hence was born the "Homer Jones (no cost) Spike." In typical Homer Jones style he saved his final career spike for the very first broadcast of Monday Night Football as he returned a kickoff for the Browns for a touchdown against the Jets in 1970.
		Homer preferred the Riddell "BD-9" two bar face mask over the one bar variety which was far more conventional for a wide receiver during that era.
