In this time i would like to speak about my favourite book, is a very old one, the most ancient of the poems writtens in greece and in all the occidental world , i talk about “la iliada” a epic poem written bi “Homero” about tha war between the greeks and trojans that took place in the middle of the fifth century B.C.
Obviously the most widespread image about the poem is the movie call “troy” of the year two thousand four, which i personally consider a very bad movie because it distort the true history in a poor adptation that kill main characters, omit important events and remove the mistic of the poem.
Really the text tell the way in that “Agamenon” used a pretext to conquer troy invading it after two years of preparations. The pretext its the women of “Menelao” brother of “Agamenon”, “helena” and her infedelity with “Paris” son of the King of troy, they went away to troy and wait hidden in the city of “Priamo”. In this context “Aquiles”, son of “Zeus“ and “Tetis” achieve the glory killing to “hector” the most famous trojan warrior after this one murder to the main squire of “Aquiles” called “Patroclo”.
Among all the héroes that appear in the poem i have mi favourites. First “Ayax the great” the second one in strenght after “Aquiles”, he hace a very important rol in the history due to his martials abilities. Other carácter that is very cool (maybe the most) is “Diomedes” son of “tideo” known by hurts a pair of gods in battle.
