differences that I gave between the Iliad and the movie "Troy" from a past question: The movie was only inspired by Homer’s Iliad‚ not a completely accurate depiction of what he wrote. The movie script took many liberties with the poem and the characters. Here are some differences between the movie and the poem: - Homer’s Iliad was greatly influenced by the gods. In the movie "Troy" the gods played no role in events that took place. - In the movie Hector kills Menelaus to save Paris. In the

TROY VS HOMERS ILIAD (A comparison between the two with a mix of movie reviewing) by Amber Shepherd When comparing the movie Troy‚ directed by Wolfgang Petterson‚ and The Iliad‚ written by Greek poet Homer we can clearly see that although Petterson has made an excellent film he has clearly left out certain aspects of the Iliad which really define the story.

The American Civil War‚ which erupted in 1861‚ was the culmination of a series of profound and divisive events between the North and South. One significant event was the Missouri Compromise of 1820. This legislation was designed to maintain a balance between free and slave states‚ admitting Missouri as a slave state while Maine entered as a free state.

Throughout the time period that we have studied‚ I believe that there were three events that had the most significant impact on American life.

Troy Maxon represents a modern tragic character very well due this is fatal flaw‚ and downfall by the end of the play. Though he may not meet the requirement of being a character of nobility or of high class‚ all the other parts of the definition of a tragic character fit him very well.

By the end of the story the tragedy ends with Troy dead‚ and without his family.

From the view of spectators outside the colonies‚ the revolution represented colonists‚ small farming workers who were disbanded
