  • Wearing Achilles Armor Achilles And Patroclus Friend
    1,103 words
    In The Iliad, Homer presents the reader with a complex situation regarding who should receive blame for the death of Patroclus. Achilles appears the likely culprit because he allowed his good friend to wear the armor knowing the danger this ruse could bring on the battlefield. In contrast to the person presented to the reader as fully responsible for his demise, Patroclus carries much of the fault as well. Both Achilles and Patroclus hold equal culpability for the end of Patroclus death, mainly ...

  • Homer Shows Trojan War
    584 words
    Theme Analysis In Homers Iliad, war is depicted as horrible, bloody, and fruitless. There are no clear winners in The Iliad. Many people die in vain because of arrogant and emotional decisions made by men. Achilles directly causes the death of his friend by first refusing to fight, leaving the Greeks at a disadvantage, and then poorly advising his friend Patroclus to join the other fighters. Even the initial cause of the war, Paris kidnapping of Helen, a Greek woman, is a rash and selfish act. T...
