The Iliad's Ending

Homer 's "Iliad" is often understood as an epic about the Trojan War, but its meaning is deeper. "Iliad" is not only a story of the evolution of the role of Achilles, it is also an anti-war epic. The last book presents many questions to readers. Why should not kill Hektor. Most war stories ended with triumph over victory, but in Iliad the last thought tended to be defeated by Hector's mourning. It emphasizes the fact that good does not defeat evil but only Achilleus defeated Hektor.

Aeschylus' anorexia starts with Homer's Iliad. Iliad talks about Trojan War, a Greek fighter led by Agamemnon, surprised Helen by kidnapping Prince Troy in Paris. In Oresteia, the war is over and the soldiers are returning home. At the opening repertoire of the trilogy, Agamemnon's wife, Clytemnestra, cruelly killed her husband. This was a fierce revenge as he soothed the gods ten years ago on the eve of the war at the expense of their daughter Iphigenia.

The dating system of "Iliad" and "Odyssey" began with Trojan War, the 10-year conflict between Greek forces and Troy City (now Turkey) was the subject of these two poems. Iliad tells the end of the war and Odyssey is focusing on the dangerous journey of Odysseus, one of the Greek generals. The Trojan War has long been considered a legend, but the archaeological discovery led most historians to believe that the conflict described by Homer was based on a real war. A commonly accepted theory is the Trojan War, or the war that it was based on, around the 12th century BC, or about 700 years ago in the golden era of ancient Greece.

In many ways, Iliad is not only the main story of the Trojan horse war but also the main story of every war. That was the urge that led to the end of Simon Weil's "Iliad" or "The Power of Poetry" all wars on the eve of another war of 1939, and she regarded Iliad as a reality of confrontation. Cruel and sincere interrogation Veil 's deep insight into the emotional and psychological trauma caused by this poem, violence, resonated with the victim and the invader between them: but this is not complete. Because, as part of the challenge to the Trojan horse's tradition, Iliad overturned the famous statement that Carl von Clauseewitz's "War is a continuation of politics by other means" through politics as a means of reconstruction So imagine the war in Troy. Male is a political animal because he has the ability to talk to Aristotle and discuss it. But it is different.
