Conclusion

Ideas

· The Iliad and the odyssey zooms in on me. For example: in the Iliad at the start I'm just a soldier, then I recover Achilles body ,then I have the idea of the Trojan horse*, then the Odyssey follows me home.

· People have said this and I agree that I'm not a particularly good fighter but I have good ideas, and that makes me win. Also I'm a king so I have soldiers to fight.

· The gods have a big influence on what happens. For example: My journey home was completely changed because I blinded the Cyclops so Poseidon got angry.

· In the Odyssey I am a commander and in the Iliad I'm a soldier commanded by Agamemnon

Comparison of stories

Even though there are lots of versions of the story,the important things are the same.Also the story's are in different order and sometimes they are not there.For example in one of the stories I shoot a dear.In one version I shoot a red dear and I shoot a normal one in another.

*It wasn't just me

Questions


· Why did I suggest the war and then try to get out of it?

· Why does the Odyssey follow me home?
Answer: I think Homer was thinking who to follow home, so he picked me.
