このコンテンツについて
What defines a hero? Is it the glorious rage of a warrior like Achilles, or the cunning resilience of a survivor like Odysseus? In this episode, we journey back to ancient Greece to explore the two foundational models of heroism in Western literature: Homer's Iliad and Odyssey.
We'll stand on the battlefields of Troy to analyze Achilles’s quest for eternal glory (kleos) and then sail the treacherous seas with Odysseus on his arduous ten-year journey home (nostos). Discover how one hero lives for battle, while the other lives by his wits.
Plus, in our "Focus on Language" segment, you'll learn essential vocabulary to discuss these epics, including terms like hubris, archetype, arduous, and the famous "Achilles' heel." You'll also get a speaking challenge designed to make you a more sophisticated and compelling storyteller.
