Für die Ältesten war Homer “der Anfang, die Mitte und das Ende”. Eine Weltanschauung und sogar eine Philosophie leiten sich implizit aus seinen Gedichten ab. Heraklit hat den kosmischen Sockel mit einer formulierung gut zu ihm zusammengefasst: “Das Universum, das für alle Wesen gleich ist, wurde von keinem Gott oder menschen geschaffen;sondern es war immer, ist und wird ewig lebendiges Feuer sein . . .” (more…)
