Discussion on Homeric Worldview

Discuss the Homeric world view. How did the characters in the Iliad see themselves and the world in which they lived? What is the theme of the Iliad, and in what ways can we apply it to the modern world? Compare the image of Achilles to our modern idea of the war hero. For example, do we give medals for the same attributes honored by the Greeks?
