Manage episode 445402895 series 2854915
AMDG. Wishing you could engage with your kids on their Greek literature course? Or trying to read the Iliad for the first time yourself? Bonnie, Jordan, and Steven are here to help. In this installment of the humanities series, the group unpacks the first six books of the Iliad and breaks down the essential takeaways, including the role of the gods; how fate acts in the story; the view of women in Ancient Greece; why the real hero might not be who you think; and why we should read the Iliad in the first place. This episode will walk you through everything you need to know to have a deep, meaningful discussion with your children about one of the greatest works of literature in the Western World.
