the Iiad

Medias res is means into the middle of things
The Iliad is about morality vs immorality and how to gain this through kleos and kleos aphthiton which are fame and undying fame.
Achilles is unique because his mother was immortal and his father was mortal but his mother being immortal didn’t want to see her son die when she would not. she dipped him into the river of Styx but held him my his heel and thus giving him only one weakness’. Briseis is Achilles’s whore and they have a strong relationship between them
a song that kinda explains fame and undying fame is when i grow up by the pussycat dolls because the song talks about how the singer wants to be famous for ever ...

  1. Notice that you're missing a t in both words here: "morality vs immorality."
