People Are Reading The Iliad, And Conclude That The Meaning Is Anger, Ok That's What Homer Said Too,

People are reading the Iliad, and conclude that the meaning is anger, ok that's what Homer said too, let's think more.

They didn't understand the destruction of human life, how important it is to be remembered, and whether it all make sense. War is evil, and if you want to win, you have to be evil, and only the gods are responsible, and they are the only ones who can stop it.

THE MEANING IS HUMANITY IN WAR AND IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE REMEMBERED IDIOTS.

Read books 6,9, and 24 again and really read the books nicely and carefully.

Pay attention to every man who has a family and will leave it for what for the gods who are ready to use them as playthings.

AND ALSO, this is an old ancient culture that was very important the sentence "tooth for tooth eye for eye son for son."

Greek Mythology is nasty nasty please don't forget that.

Oh yeah and this too

Kleos (Ancient Greek: κλέος) is the Greek word often translated to "renown", or "glory". It is related to the English word "loud" and carries the implied meaning of "what others hear about you". A Greek hero earns kleos through accomplishing great deeds.

According to Gregory Nagy, besides the meaning of "glory", kleos can also be used as the medium (in this case, the ancient Greek poetry or song) which conveys glory.

Ok, thanks, that's my thought for the day <3

If I Were A Woman, You Wouldnt Consider Me Unfaithful
If I Were A Woman, You Wouldnt Consider Me Unfaithful

“If I were a woman, you wouldn’t consider me unfaithful”

Just a random thought that popped into my mind while watching a video about the “Top 3 Greek heroes who cheated on their wives”, and Odysseus was on third place🙃
