Today in class restarted on the essay about Homer.

Another great work of Homer is The Iliad.The Iliad is a book of the ancient Greek epic poem in dactylic hexameter,which is a ancient greek rhyme that Homer created. Set during the Trojan War, it tells stories of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. The story covers only a few years after the Trojan War. The Iliad mentions or alludes to many of the Greek legends about the siege; and some of the early events, like the gathering of warriors of siege, the cause of the wars, and the concerns after the war. And then the epic narratives takes up events after prophesied for the future, such as Achilles' imminent death and the fall of Troy. Although the story ends before the events takes place, it covers more or less the complete story of the Trojan War. The Iliad is paired with the Odyssey, which is also attributed to Homer.

This is the part I did in class, it's about The Iliad.
