Homer’s Iliad: Book III Homer’s Iliad
Martha Krieter-Spiro (editor), S. Douglas Olson (editor), Benjamin Millis (editor), Sara Strack (editor)This commentary on the 3rd book of the Iliad concentrates on the interpretation of the ceremonial single combat between the rivals for Helen, Paris and Menelaus, a scene that reflects the origins of the Trojan War. The famous parade before the walls presents Agamemnon, Odysseus and Ajax, and reveals just how much in love Paris and Helen are in spite of internal and external conflicts.
