Ares works hard, but Athena works harder | Iliad Book 5
Welcome to WINNOW. Join us, Owen and Isabella Gemmer, as we dive deep into the Iliad and Odyssey one book at a time. This week's episode is all about Book 5 of the Iliad, where we talk about epic moments on the battlefield at Troy. This war is both epic and brutal. Ares joins in the fight on the Trojan side and Athena sides with the Greeks. Who will be triumphant? We also discuss fate and destiny in greek mythology. How much freewill do these heroes have or are their fates sealed?
Listen to Book 6 of the Iliad to be prepared for the next episode on YouTube.
