If you were an ancient Greek, which of the following statements would you agree with?
A) Achilles’ rage is justified and I support his decision not to fight, even if it means the Greeks might lose lots of men, or even the war itself.
Or
B) Agamemnon is the commander, as such he is in the right, and I support his decision to ask for Achilles’ war prize Briseis – even if it means that Achilles will sit out the war.
Your answer should be a good solid paragraph, have a topic sentence, and MUST use evidence from Homer. Evidence can be direct quotes or examples of scenes/character decisions etc...

Mr. Jana,
I'm not sure if this is relevent, but we're not done with book one of the Iliad. Should we still reflect?

Kit,
We will not be reading that last section of Book One together as a class. I'm going to summarize it quickly and get the class started on another book next week.
