Most directly it has to do with how contemporary Greeks remember portions of the epic tradition.

In another sense, this concept has to do with questions of medium. In other words how does the epic form (meter, rhythm and formula) facilitate the rememberance of past events in an oral tradition? This easily segues into questions such as what effect do other media whether they are text based, aural modes of record, film, etc. have upon epic rememberance? Or, what connection did material contexts (refer to site-specificity ) play in the articulation of epic or portions of epic?
