originally in German is one of a number of recent books and articles that discuss the authenticity of the Trojan War, best known from Homer's Iliad, and its alleged setting in northwestern Anatolia near the mound called Hisarhk. In his Introduction, Latacz states what he sees as the four-part question at the heart of Trojan studies: (1) Is Hisarhk to be identified with Homer's Troy? (2) If so, what was historical Troy like? (3) How could the knowledge of Troy and its fall have reached Homer 450 years later? (4) If it did, to what extent can we use the Iliad as a source of information on historical Troy?
