This research paper: (8 pp) Do you ever wonder if the Greeks would have booed a good comedy off the stage? I guess, the chorus responding to, "a funny thing happened to me on the way to the tragedy this evening, just wouldn't cut it. It is tragedy that has survived in the Greek theater. Were all our characters doomed at the beginning of their lives? Did only the gods reek havoc on these men, to cause their failings, or did they contribute to their own downfall as well. Or did blaming the action on the Gods, absolve them of taking responsibility for their lives? These are some of the questions we will consider as we look at these men in action in Homer's Illiad. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
