    The difference in “The odyssey” and “Iliad” is the level of interference of the gods. In the novel “Iliad”‚ the gods were more actively involved in the affairs of mortals than they were in the Odyssey. There were numerous occasions where they actually took human form so they could go out onto the battlefield to support the humans. For example: in the third book of the novel “Iliad”‚ a truce is made so that Menelaus and Paris can meet in single combat‚ and the winner will take Helen and all her treasures

    The blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet could be placed on many different people for many different reasons. Despite all of the characters actions from the play that lead to the young couple’s dreadful demise‚ the real blame should be placed on their society as a whole. The societal expectation of parents picking their child’s spouse at the time was the norm‚ but it wasn’t well thought out.
