ESSAY ON: Homer & Achebe/Fear and Anger

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: An 8 page research paper that examines the role of fear and anger in Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart and the classic ancient Greek epic, the Iliad, by Homer. In both of these texts, the volatile emotions of fear and anger are expressed within the framework of the warrior ethos. An examination of the effects of fear and anger in these narratives demonstrates the commonality of human experience; and, specifically, how war and violence defy rationality, drawing directly on the basic emotions, such as fear and anger. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
