HELLO LOVELIES, I'VE FINALLY UPDATED MY WEBSITE! You all can find the written summary of Iliad book 20 via this link :) I hope these help xx www.moaninc.co.uk/homers-iliad/book-20-summary
I’m reading the Iliad for school and it’s a bit confusing, so when a fellow classmate of mine told me about your channel I was overjoyed! Your videos are super helpful and make this book seem way more interesting! Thanks for helping me out! 🥰
aeneas and achilles are my two favorite characters from the iliad so far so this was a fun chapter/book for me! thank you for these videos btw, i’m so addicted to them!
You’re the only person I’m aware of who has said Aeneas is one of their favourite characters haha😂 But I’m so glad you enjoy the videos - thank you for watching!!
@@MoAnInc WAIT i want to clarify that i know absolutely nothing about mythology and went into pretty much all this blind so i honestly only know about him up to the iliad book 20 and don’t know if he’s problematic in the future like in the aeneid 😭 just in case he ends up being a terrible person and i’m out here professing that he’s my favorite character 😭
@@trxgician HAHAHAHA you’re so good!! I’m sure some people like him … some people somewhere must do 😂 In fact, I’m sure some Italians must ADORE him. I’m starting my Aeneid series next though so PLEASE join me and read along 😍 Let me know if you end up changing your mind!
@@MoAnInc yes omg i will absolutely be joining you to read along as soon as i finish the odyssey!!! i was just about to ask if you were planning to read the aeneid next because i can see lots of odyssey videos in my subscription box 😆 your videos are such an amazing complement to the text, i can’t thank you enough for them!!!
High o'er the scene of death Achilles stood, All grim with dust, all horrible in blood: Yet still insatiate, still with rage on flame; Such is the lust of never-dying fame! Pope's verse translation of the end of book 20
I don't know if you meant it rhetorically, but your question of why Aenias would randomly go off on their genealogy would have been significant to the people in antiquity. You may (or may not) get a kick out of this series. They're not so much trying to create an objective lens, but take a phenomenalogical/anthropological approach to understanding these stories and how the ancient world read them/participated in them. th-cam.com/video/_N5s4n_lwB8/w-d-xo.html

Also random fact: the city Aeneas ran off to is Lyrnessus, which is where Briseis is from. So the ENTIRE BOOK is (partly) his fault.

Ah I’m so so glad these help!!!! Hope you end up loving it as much as I do 🥰
You found it confusing? Even in the original Greek, it's surprisingly easy to follow compared to other Bronze age manuscripts.
I love that Poseidon shakes the earth so hard Hades freaks out because he thinks the whole world is going to collapse into the underworld.
I just imagined Poseidon holding a trident like "WTF mate, why are we here?" 🤣👏
Hahaha LITERALLY how I picture this scene 😂😂😂
I wish you where my teacher for Greek mythology
I’d genuinely be the worst teacher lolol but thank you 😂

14:37 "but one Aeneas can" LOL
😂🤷🏻♀️
Nice explanation 😊
Thank you :)
High o'er the scene of death Achilles stood,
All grim with dust, all horrible in blood:
Yet still insatiate, still with rage on flame;
Such is the lust of never-dying fame!

Awesome vid
❤️
I wonder how Achilles would’ve reacted if none of the gods intervened when Aeneas picked up that rock.
😂😂

I meant it more as a joke, yes hahaha - but this comment is great! Thank you!!
maHOOsive
Literally the only way I can express how large things are because we don’t have the correct word in English 😂
@@MoAnIncI suppose we also don't have the more emphatic version of the verb "to be."
