Document Summary

The death of ajax, son of telamon. Fights achilles where she dies under his arms. Some rumours say that achilles was not happy that he had killed a beautiful women and wished he had met her on some other occasion. Killed by paris when shot by arrow in his heels; shot was guided by apollo. Ajax pulls body of achilles away to bury. Odysseus gets armour, ajax did not get glory ( klous ), athena causes him to go insane and he kills a lot of greek captains, regains sanity and commits suicide. Iliad foreshadows achilles" death with a heightened dramatic effect. Motif transference: deliberate parallels between death of patroclus and achilles. Thetis and the nereids coming out of the water to mourn in an outburst of sorrow. Thetis holding achilles" head in her arms. Diometes and odysseus disguised as beggar, steals it: the trojan horse: The trick to burn the camp: sail and hide behind island of tenedos.
