DUE WED 2/13 The Iliad Assignment (Late okay - Due 2/13)

1. Write a summary bullet for each stanza

• So basicly what they are saying in first paragraph is that Thestor's son is scanning the birds and thinks about the things that are happening are going to happen and did happen.


• So what happens in the second stanza is that Achilles is ordered to explain Apollos anger.


• So Achilles wants to make a deal with Zeus to defend him. There is a man that he will make mad, He is a mighty King and he is way to strong to fight.


• So here Zeus is saying that he will pretect Calchas so that no one will be able to touch him when he will be fighting.


• So here In this stanza The priest and Agamemnon are talking about the girl that had gotten talken away as a war prize. The priest does not want any ranson and there is no price that Agamemnon can say that will interest the priest so that he will give up the girl.
  

2. Write a question for each stanza - be specific - don't just say "I don't get it" say "I don't understood who Calchas is on p. x "

• I do not have any questions for these stanzas.
  

3. Make a prediction when you finsish the three stanzas.

• I think that this war is going to go for along time before Agamemnon will get his women back since the priest will not take any ransom for the girl.
