Jsyk, I subbed after watching The 12 Labors of Hercules (most excellent detail), am back for more, &’ll see you around.. thank you. ☺️
Love it, as the title shows its the best Iliad documentary out there. Thank you for the work you put in it is very appreciated, and I am sure it will be for years to come.
I would like to translate this to Portuguese.
Would it be possible for you to send me the text?
I am a homeschool mom and have been trying to find an Iliad adaptatiob my kids would understand and like to read. Yours is beautiful, but my children only read Portuguese. :(
Helen and Menelaus would be lost in egypt before returning to sparta you should mentioned that
@@marianafaria6960 l dont think it's appropriate for kids. The violence and betrayals are to for us to find the way to tell our children how not to be..You seem to be a great mom..You will find the way in a lovely Portuguese language to teach your kids the impact of greed versus kindness..
Odysseus was the real MVP. He made the pact so that the Greek kings wouldn't fight over Helen. Did not want to go to war in the first place. Reunited Chryseis with her father, and came up with the Trojan horse.
And bro still had to do the odyssey afterwards
@@gowifdafro7176🤔 I wonder if Sean Bean would've survived the sequel
@@gowifdafro7176 The Trojan Horse is in The Odyssey
And yet he single-handedly thwarts himself throughout the Odyssey
Didn’t he reunite Chryseis with her father because Agamemnom ordered him to do so after Achiles found out why the plague is spreading among the Argives?
Helen: aw god I’m really worried about all these suitors.
Odysseus: don’t worry, I’ll make a protection deal just for you!
Helen: omg that’s so nice such a best friend move!
Odysseus: w h a t
He was way more interested in her cousin Penelope and in some versions having no interest in Helen from the start so no great loss for him.
@@shadowvader3877 true. Bro was just tired to be in unnecessary fights
😆
😂
Lol
Hector is my favorite character, bound by so many things. A very normal man with no great faults, could fall for the pressure and ties. In a way its the story of so many, even in our times.
Yea Hector and Odysseus are the the best characters
I was a big Hector fan until I read that he fled from Achilles. That cowardice turned me against him. He even blames the gods for his own fear, when really Athena is the one who acts to deceive him into turning and facing his death with honor.
Hector was the true hero.
Hector all day. Achilles bar his heel was immortal, guys would stab him in the chest and he would bend the sword like the terminator. Not sure why people would see him as badass. Diomedes was the real badass. Yes he got divine help but he used it to fight and beat the gods. Bro was out there like kratos
@Yunghamz that's not even true, achilles gets injured multiple times in the original telling of the story. The heel thing came later (in the aneiad but I'm not certain)
Particularly given the stunning complexity of the overall story, that is an excellent summary.
The only thing I would like to add is that while it was a 10 year quest from the initial departure from Greece, the Acheans were only fully assembled on the plain in front of Troy in the 10th year. The other 9 years were spent either a/ trying to get there or b/ attacking other cities, as alluded to.
And a couple of idle comments on this truly amazing story..
*It was quite rich of Achilles to be enraged about Patroclus' death, given it was his own obstinate pride which caused it
*Of all the characters, Odysseus is by far the most complex and interesting.
Is that not quite true psychologically though, for Achilles guilt over the death of his friend to enrage him all the more? I think the characters are master classes in psychology and the nature of men. Feel like I'm learning a lot from this story
I thought that they were all assembled during the first year as well?
That's why Odysseus got his own sequel.
@@billbaggins1688 how’s calles the sequel ?
It is amazing to listen to a story written by a blind man thousands of years ago! Also the paintings seen throughout the video are feast for the eyes! Keep up the good work man!
well I imagine it's somewhat based on real events. but yeah, probably most of the details are made up.
It wasn't written by him, in that the story existed and was spread around the Isles for decades, if not centuries, before being collected and recorded by Homer.
That is, provided, Homer was even a real person and not simply a collection of authors, which is just as likely.
@harrylane4 It's such a shame that modern people are so demoralized that they cannot conceive of great men like Homer or Shakespeare being lone men.
@@harrylane4 Also we only have a third of the story as collected by Homer whether a person, or a collection of persons under one name. The other two thirds are lost to time.
As a Greek, I have to compliment your outstanding work on this video! Thank you for your effort and keep up the good work!

I came across this video while reading ‘The song of Achilles’. Before starting the book, I had no information about the Greek Mythology. The only thing I knew of some relevance was the movie ‘Troy’ which I saw only because of Brad Pitt.
This video has helped me a lot understand the characters, whilst reading the book.
From the deepest bottom of my heart thank you so much for the beautifully and graphically explained Video.
I'm also reading The song of Achilles and that's why i hope to know the whole story of Troy.
Lol same. Just finished the book and little bit confused about the whole war thing
Achilles regrets his choice of fame over long life telling Odysseus better the lowest Helot alive than the greatest warrior in hades
THATS MY FAVORITE BOOK 😭😭😭😭I was sobbing at the end!
Same. I am reading The song of Archilles right now and found this. Loving every second of this video.
This was incredibly well done. The idea that you were capable of capturing the complexities, of the Iliad, in 35 minutes is a feat in itself. Brilliant work, truly.
Best comment right here -- 35 minutes and that was amazingly comprehensive!!
Never stop uploading champ! You have one of the best channels on UA-cam!

Facts
agreed
Exactly right. This channel is outstanding!!!!
The Iliad was essentially the Bible of the ancient world. It showed how leaders should treat their soldiers (Wrath of Achilles due to Agamemnon), the dangers of Hubris (Patroclus dying due to Achilles Hubris) and how one should treat the dead (Achilles not finding peace until Hector is returned and buried). It went so far that a successful Greek Admiral was executed because he could not retrieve the bodies of a sunken ship and therefore they would never find peace. Amazing tale.
I'm traveling to Greece and Turkey in 10 days. This documentary was exactly what I wanted. I can't wait to go see all those sites. Great work!
These are honestly the best documentary-like videos on UA-cam. This channel is super underrated. Keep up the good work.
I see you like historical content friend.Please look at my channel for more content like this
Honestly it's kinda sad that Hactor's wife became a pleasure slave and their child killed. Also another sad thing is Odysseus the wisest and the one who helped them out the most gotten a curse to continue another 10 years from his home
I always liked that he was punished most. He was the one who suggested the Oath of Tyndareus so technically everyone being there including himself was his own idea
This was a fantastic video, you've packed in all the main points, explained the back story and the after events in 35 minutes, I've watched TV Docs on the Iliad that were twice as long and were no where near as informative... thankyou and keep up the great work....
Outstanding! An excellent 'score card' summary of who vs. who in what can be a complicated story. Really well done, and highly recommended for Trojan War fans. Thanks for posting!
Very well presented and thoroughly explained, keep up the good work!
Thanks Ektor 👍
Kudos for an excellent presentation of this classic tale. Very impressive.
Hello @ektorzoildis5683 can i ask you a question all about the story of iliad?
@@lebo7972 Sure
We did Iliad and Odyssey in school in the language of Homer
Thankyou for making this sir. I’m living in Turkey exploring the Roman and Greek ruins so your channel is really enlightening for me

Thank you! First video of yours I've played. I'm a new listener, new subscriber. Hearing this so simply yet concisely summarized allows me to thoroughly understand this story. At 73, although I LOVE history and have done so my entire life, I've always avoided these and the other stories I've read on your list of videos. I'm looking forward to your other videos.
Absolutely fantastic! Thank you, would love to see the next one done on the Odyssey itself, keep it up!

I thought I was going to watch a Trojan War documentary and ended up listening to the intro music twenty times. You have no business having music that good as your introduction, it's fantastic!
Absolutely well explained. Thanks for all the great effort you put in and finally coming out with this easy to understand documentary. Kudos!!!
Following the story of "The Iliad" is like trying to follow "War and Peace". You can't tell who the players are without a scorecard.
Thanks for displaying "org charts" of who's who in this story. It makes it easier to follow the story.
No. The Iliad does not tell the beginning of the Trolan war; it begins in the tenth and final year and ends with the funeral games of Hektor, way before any sign of the war ending. Remarkably, the centre of the whole work, as well as its climax, is the tragedy of the Trojan prince Hektor which is told with astonishingly detailed and moving humanity. This spirit is continued later in Athenian Tragic drama. It is this acknowledgment of the shared humanity and honour of an enemy which lifts Greek literature to its rank of true majesty.
You mean the funeral games for Patroclus*
@@ted_umeh No. Achilles kills Hektor to avenge the death of his boyfriend Patroklos but eventually releases Hektor's body to king Priam. The Iliad ends "Hos hoi g' amphiepon taphon Hektoros hippodampoio."
@@ted_umeh No. Hektor. See ending of book 24 and the Iliad. Last verse itself says "Hos hoi g' amphiepon taphon Hektoros hippodamoio." (Thus they concluded the funeral rites of Hektor, tamer of horses.)
PhD in Literature?
@@nezperce2767 Better, PhD in UA-cam Comment Section. 😆👌🏻
This video is an achievement in itself! Well done mate! I've saved this for the n no. of times I'll be replaying this in the future to revisit the Trojan war.
I totally agree mate. i just found this video quite exsquisite and interesting. as my homie nelson once said "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
I enjoyed studying the Iliad, the Odyssey, the Aeneid, and all the other shorter stories of ancient Greek. It is a compelling collection of stories that have such wonderful complexity and detail. The Iliad and Odyssey are really just two parts of a much wider and bigger multigenerational universe of characters and events. The fathers of many of the Greek heros of the Trojan War sailed together with Jason in the search for the Golden Fleece.
The Aeneid is roman
@@wilcowenHe meant The Aeneid is at least connected to the Greek literary tradition, do not argue semantics.
Ive just started to read the illiad and let me say...i have been confounded by the complexities of the characters and their actions to each other..i had no idea that the story takes place well into the battle and failed to explain the backstories. Thank you for i can now puck up the book once again with a greater understanding of the illiad.
"Achilles' lifelong friend, Patroclus"
Sure, that's one way to describe their relationship.
There were no other stories to describe their relationship.do you know any story prove they had romantic relationship?
@@blablablabla542 no they weren’t cousins, some think they were lovers while others think they’re just friends, but I’m pretty sure they weren’t cousins.
@@eriksatie7994 I mean, Plato himself called them a perfect example of "divine lovers". So, there IS evidence saying they were romantically involved. But you'll find arguments on both sides, and since it's legit fiction no one is "right". It's just kinda disingenuous to say there's no evidence...cause there's just as much evidence for a romantic relationship as there is for a platonic relationship.
Yep, they might have been more than just friends…and why on earth are all of those ancient greeks and gods depicted almost naked?:)…

Great upload. You are always spot on with the images/illustrations as well.
Great job rounding up all of these paintings to illustrate the story. Thanks.

I remember having to translate the Iliad for school and the curriculum was so drawn out that it took forever and I felt very bored with it. Your video is amazing and has made me want to pick it back up years later and see what I was missing! Thank you, really great video
Subscribed decent video packing so much information in a 36 minute video can't wait to see what else you have made
As a Greek. Amazing job man. You are amazing
I love your explanation !!! Its is sooo goood! But this one is a bit more detailed than what I am looking for my examination today! Huge respect!
Also , you have gained a solid subscriber ❤️

Really cool summary, good for a history class or refreshing the memory. I was saddened by hector's death...
Wow! Very well presented. I enjoyed watching this video.
This is incredible! Truly excellent work sir, thank you.
This is much easier to follow than the book,
thank you 😊
I'm glad you included the first part of the Aeneid in the end of this, the birth of Rome. I hope you cover that in future. Great video.
Thank you so nice presented !!!
This is a really good documentary. Please make more of these type of videos (ie , ancient Greece/Rome).
Thanks Sama 👍
@@TheLifeGuide could you please tell me song you used at the end? At 34:30
Liked, subscribed, and commented. Such amazing content!
Amazing stuff bud your a inspiration ;) Legend
This a tragic tale of when simping goes wrong.
Also, Apollo played himself by cursing Cassandra for not wanting to be with him. He even guided captain simp's arrow to Achilles' only weak spot, just to have everyone laugh at her prophecies about burning the Trojan horse. His jealous rage lead to the downfall of Troy in the end.
Seriously. Even more wild is that he either couldn't undo the curse, or didn't want to because he was still upset over the rejection. Either way, what the fuck man?
I never really read The Iliad but this was a great rundown and I didn't realize Odysseus was actually gone for 20 years not just 10
beautifully made video great work
Brilliantly done!!!
This stuff is amazing man wow
Amazing video, Keep up the good work!
couldnt agree more max!
Love this channel, Quality content 💯
I found so many similarities between Greek and Indian mythology today from this video .
oh Anushravi my dear little boy, I couldnt agree with you more, Like nelson once said, “Many people in this country have paid the price before me and many will pay the price after me.”
Well this was a tour de force. Thank you for your amazing work!
Excellent storytelling! Subscribed
Can’t wait for a video on the Odyssey
This was explained brutally well
thank you for these great videos
This was amazing 😻
Great video as always. Just point that I would vehemently disagree with: Achilles and Patroclus were not “best friends”.
In symposium Plato through Phaedrus discusses Achilles and Patroclus as prime example of divinely approved lovers: specifically he says that only those who’re in love would consent to join their beloved even in face of death. He goes on to say that Achilles ached for his lover Patroclus, and hastened to avenge him even after being told by his mother Thetis that killing Hector would bring about his own death. For a love so great the Gods bestowed upon him an afterlife in Isle of Blest. In fact, the only bone Plato’s got to pick with Aeschylus is about who was the “lover” and the “loved”. There’s a small chunk of classical debate about this matter.
Even in the Iliad, Patroclus’s very first words to Achilles are uttered in book 11, where he asks what it is that Achilles needs of him; the last words he ever speaks is “Achilles”. He dies wearing Achilles’s armour. When the news of his death reaches Achilles, he goes out bare-chested roaring like a lion (blessed by Athena) to rescue the body of Patroclus. Afterwards he washes and warps Patroclus’s body in cloth, and places him on his bed in their shared tent. He refuses to bury Patroclus, he doesn’t eat or drink or sleep, just sits by Patroclus’s side and weeps inconsolably, even pulling out his own hair and beating his chest. The words he says are: “My dear comrade Patroclus has fallen - he whom I valued more than all others, and loved as dearly as my own life” (book 18); “I’m sick with longing for you! There is no more shattering a blow that I could suffer. Not even if I should learn of my own father’s death, or the death of my dear son” (book 19).
In his pursuit of slaying Hector, Achilles fights anything and everything in his way, even fights and wounds the guardian demigod of River Scamander. His rage is so raw that even the gods are scared of him. When Hector is cornered and begs for having his body returned to his family for burial, Achilles says: “Dog, talk not to me neither of knees nor parents; would that I could be as sure of being able to cut your flesh into pieces and eat it raw, for the ill you have done me”; and “the Achaeans shall give him [Patroclus] all due funeral rites, while dogs and vultures shall work their will upon yourself” (both from book 22). The same Hector whom Achilles had refused to fight until now, stating that Hector had done him no wrong, going so far as calling him “glorious Hector” in book 9; is now unworthy of even a burial: why? such is the grief Hector has inflicted upon Achilles.
Achilles then returns to his camp and refuses to bathe, until Patroclus has been given a proper funeral. He even talks about publicly shaving head, a gesture reserved only for the most severe grief in Greek society, saying that: “for so long as I live no such second sorrow shall ever draw nigh me” (book 23).
Later, when Theits visits Achilles, he’s described as cradling Patroclus’s body: with his hand on Patroclus’s breast while with the other he tenderly holds his [Patroclus’s] head. In the whole of the epic, there isn’t another depiction of such intimacy between men. Then the ghost of Patroclus appears to Achilles, requesting him to perform his last rites, he pleads: “a last request - grant it, please. Never bury my bones away from yours, Achilles, let them lie together” (book 23). In response Achilles agrees, and in his longing for being with Patroclus again, he says: “Draw closer to me, let us once more throw our arms around one another, and find sad comfort in the sharing of our sorrows” (book 23). The ghost of Patroclus disappears and Achilles spends the rest of the night weeping.
Towards the end of book 23, when he’s performing the last rites for Patroclus, Achilles places a lock of his own hair into Patroclus’s hand. The metaphorical and emotional aspect of this action can’t be overstated; this was his promise to Peleus, that when he returned home to Pythia, Achilles would offer a lock of his own hair to river Spercheius (the river of Pythia), as a gesture of gratitude of having made it back home. Such promises of actions performed in honour of deities being a strong theme in Greek religion (Mycenaean to Hellenistic period). He has now not only given up any hope or expectation of going home, but instead places the lock of his hair in hands of a person who he would want to be reunited with. Patroclus is his home. By making this sacrifice to Patroclus, Achilles is making a public statement of his devotion, elevating Patroclus to almost a deity like personal deity.
Never before or since in the entire Greek classical literature would you see another example that parallels anything close to the intimacy and depth of the connection that’s depicted between Achilles and Patroclus.
When Achilles dies, his remains are buried with Patroclus’s remains.
Please let’s respect the their dignity and their love.
That was written beautifully. I thank you sincerely for that bittersweet summary.
This made me cry. People may refer to Orpheus and Eurydice's story as a tragic tale of love, but for me the depths of Achilles' emotion are painfully underrated. The Iliad does not only revolve around hubris and wrath (μήνις)
Very good summary of a very complicated story. (Although I would have left out the Aeneas bit, as that's generally understood to be a self-serving retcon from the Romans). And I liked that in illustrating the Judgement of Paris, it chose a painting that accurately showed only Aphrodite naked, unlike most paintings of the subject.
Why is that the most accurate depiction?
@@thebellbrothers3279 Because Aphrodite is the only goddess who walks around naked. Athena and Hera would never do that, and in any event doing so would seem out of place with the nature of the bribes that they were offering Paris. Many painters seem to have shown them naked as well in order to add more soft port spice to the affair.
@@davidjordan2336 why are some soldiers and heroes shown fighting also naked?
@@thebellbrothers3279 That I don't know, but it's a good question, as going into battle without armor, let alone naked, would obviously be suicidal. I suspect that it may have been to elevate the human element in the paintings. An armored and helmeted soldier might as well be a robot, and as such would be difficult to make an emotional connection with. Struggles in general are better conveyed with nude figures, which after all are (in my opinion) the best vehicles for illustrating the human condition. This may seem inconsistent with my opinion of the Judgement of Paris, but with those the nudity just feels gratuitous.
@@thebellbrothers3279 because male nudity wasn't taboo like female nudity was. men could walk around naked and no one would bat an eye, but if there was one woman who would do that it was aphrodite. as for why they're painted like that, the period they were painted in saw a resurgence of admiration for the human body.
Really enjoyed your version of the epic story .. thank you !

Excellent. I enjoyed your telling of the Iliad with many surprising facts I was not aware of. Thanks
Love this 😩😩😩
This is really a truly colossal triumph, packed full of superb images, & expertly narrated! Thank you!!!
underrated channel on YT fr .
Excellent videos
The biggest flex of Patroclus is that he had a friend (a lover me thinks actually) who could willingly fight gods, kill great warriors like Hector just to avenge the death of his friend
imo, his biggest flex was killing zeus' son like it was nothing and the fact that he was only stopped by divine intervention. he might not have been an achilles or a hector, but he sure knew how to fight.
I herd the story of Troy in 9th std but the way you told me was amazing 👏
Amazing Video!
Whew; to say that Priam was " prolific " IS UNDENIABLY A GREAT UNDERSTATEMENT.
