Why the Gods WANT the Trojan War to Continue
Welcome back
We are kicking off a massive new series on the foundation of Western literature: Homer’s The Iliad.
In this episode, we cover Books 1 through 4, but with a creative twist. Each of us took a different artistic approach—using tools like Google Gemini and ChatGPT—to visualize the epic narrative, from the rage of Achilles to the duel between Paris and Menelaus.
In this episode, we discuss:
Book 1: The plague on the Greek army and the public humiliation of Achilles by Agamemnon.
Book 2: Zeus’s lying dream to Agamemnon and the Great Catalog of Ships.
Book 3: The duel between Paris and Menelaus and Aphrodite’s divine intervention.
Book 4: How Athena breaks the truce to ensure the Trojan War truly begins.
Whether you're reading for a college class or just diving into the classics for fun, join us as we break down the drama on both the human and divine levels.
