Quotes by Emily Katz Anhalt (?)

“Raging like a lion or wild boar and slaughtering many enemies may be worthy of praise and honor in the world of Homer’s characters, but similes claiming that the warriors are like such beasts invite the audience to consider whether it really is optimal behavior for a human being. Is it really something to brag about?”

“The Iliad thus begins to suggest that no community can succeed by honoring exceptional individuals whose indulgence in rage and ruthless pursuit of honor causes them to neglect or imperil those who depend upon them.”
