Who Killed Homer?

Who Killed Homer?: The Demise of Classical Education and the Recovery of Greek Wisdom, is a 1998 book by Classics scholars Victor Davis Hanson and John Heath.[1][2]

Reviewing Who Killed Homer? for Foreign Affairs, Francis Fukuyama described it as "ostensibly" focused on the decline of classical studies, but "really about the loss of a common, humanistic core in contemporary education and culture."[3]
