Book One of The Iliad had a different resolution than the Hebrew Selections, they took different approaches in resolving their conflicts. These approaches made the difference between a complete one and an incomplete one. The way these resolutions were approached were heavily influenced by the author’s ideals and beliefs.

It has been said the chief interest of The Iliad is that we can find in it answers to fundamentally important questions, characteristics of European or Western culture, a sense of the tragic, domestic comedy, scepticism of the role the divine in human life, admiration for the strength of the individual human will, pleasure in the kind of heroic conflict that elicits a moral pride and a fascination with the interaction between moral choice and political life in the community.

By choosing not to idealize these heroes, Homer provides an insight into the values of ancient Greek culture; both Achilles and Odysseus represent prized characteristics, but also illustrate the dangers of hubris and excessive individualism.
