Tales from the Iliad

Více o knize

The central theme of the epic revolves around the Wrath of Achilles, a force that drives the narrative with blind fury and defiance of law. This intense emotion explains the notable absence of Achilles from much of the action, yet he remains a pivotal character throughout. The structure of the poem is intricately tied to his character, similar to how Odysseus shapes The Odyssey. Understanding this guiding concept allows readers to grasp the complexities of the story and its characters.
