A

through
Mythology Homer’s
epic
tales,
The

and
the
complexities
of
human
nature.
These
epic
poems
have
become
foundational
in
western
literature
and
continue
to

Iliad
tells
the
story
of
the
Trojan
War,
a
conflict
between
the
Greeks
and
the
Trojans
that
lasted
for
ten
years.
The
hero
of
the

Achilles,
a
warrior
whose
wrath
and
pride
cause
chaos
among
the
Greeks.
The
Odyssey
follows
the
journey
of
Odysseus,
a
war
hero
who
faces
numerous
obstacles
on
his
voyage
home,
including
encounters
with
gods,
witches,
and
dangerous
creatures. Both
epic
poems
are
rich
with
characters,
each
with
their
own
motivations
and
flaws.
Homer
portrays
the
gods
as
capricious
and
powerful,
and
humanity
as
both
brave
and
fallible.

themes
of
loyalty,
honor,
and
the

The
term
“Achilles
heel”
has
entered
the
lexicon
as
a
symbol
of
a
person’s
fatal
weakness,
and
the
concept
of
the
“hero’s
journey”
has
become
a
prominent
theme
in
storytelling. In

there
has
been
a

world
of
ancient
mythology

timeless
struggles
of
the
