Part 2: How is the perspective (about Odyssesus) in the poem different from the perspective Caroline Alexander offered? Which view do you
agree with article or poem)? Why? Explain in a paragraph. Cite at least
one quote from the poem you read today

Answer and Explanation:

The Odyssey is  major ancient Greek epic poems ascribed to Homer. It is one of the oldest works of literature which is still read by contemporary audiences. Like the Iliad, the poem is divided into 24 books.

The Iliad begins with resentment and ends with a funeral. Between passages, there is an element of boredom but to alter the war adage, there is pathos, sex, humor, fairytale strangeness, and lyric images which are being pointed by moments of pure terror For example eyes popped out of heads, a spear throbbing in a beating heart, a man cradling his intestines in his hands.

The recent book of Caroline Alexander’s The War that Killed Achilles: The True Story of Homer’s Iliad and the Fall of Troy (2009), is a close retelling. The tragedy happened when he fights and, just beyond the events of the poem, die anyway.

This new Iliad demonstrates, Alexander has transparently had a change of heart, but translation is quite addictive.

Alexander in a recent interview said that there would be no reason to handle such a project until ‘you thought you could do a better job’.

Her is to become the ‘translation of record’.

the answer would be: it explains that at least one son must join the church

the expression ''as the tithe of his sons'' indicates how his father intended for at least one of his sons to serve the church. this phrase demonstrates that his father offered him as a last resort since none of his brothers chose to serve the church.
