　　I have never been to Troy, but David Maule made me feel as if I were standing on the high wall of Troy, watching the fierce war. Thanks to this British author, who adapted the famous Homer’s poem into a lively story, I found it easier to understand this story. Though the story happened over 3000 years ago in a remote place, I was deeply fascinated by it.

　　The mysterious plot is one of the reasons why I loved The Story of Troy so much, yet I am more interested in the human heroes of the war. Hector was the eldest son of king of Troy, Priam. He was not only a real hero of Trojan, but was regarded the highest moral hero in Greek classic by later historians. The war started because of the mischief of his brother, Paris, whom he didn’t appreciate. However, since Hector was the commander of the Trojan army, he was obliged to fight with all force. It was really a tragedy that such a valiant man died in the duel with another great warrior, Achilles. It is natural to see death in a war. As a famous Chinese parable says, “A life can be as slight as a piece of feather, or as weighty as Mount Tai.” Sometimes, one’s glory walks hand in hand with one’s doom. Achilles was such a typical person. His personal charm made The Story of Troy more attractive. He was so crucial because his every appearance in a war encouraged his fellow soldiers and terrified the enemies. Actually, Achilles was half-god who was almost invincible in people’s mind. That’s why his name was memorized long after his death. Besides the two great men, the wisdom of Odysseus also proved him to be a great hero.

　　He didn’t want to attend the war because he was happily married and had a lovely son. However, since his country was allied to Mycenae, he had to take the command given by the king of Mycenae. I’m quite sure that the story of the wooden horse is widely known, however, few people know who thought of the brilliant idea, that’s why I admired Odysseus so much because he was the person who got the idea. Thanks to the horse, the ten-year war came to an end at last. If you want to know how the wooden horse worked, just read the book. The ancient Greeks believed that the gods and goddesses also played important roles in the origin, process and ending of the whole story. The story of the golden apple was such an example. When Eris, the goddess of argument and disagreement, threw out the golden apple to a wedding ceremony on Mount Olympus, a dispute happened. Hera, the queen of gods, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, were all involved in the argument for the apple. None of them was willing to give way, so they turned to Paris for a final judgment. Tempted by Aphrodite’s beauty and promise, Paris handed the apple to her.

　　To keep her word, Aphrodite helped him to get Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, as his wife. That was the cause of the war. Paris’s choice obviously annoyed the other two goddesses. So during the war, they helped the Greek alliance army while some other gods, such as Apollo and Aphrodite, guarded Troy. When Paris dueled with Helen’s former husband Menelaus, Aphrodite saved Paris when he was about to be finished off. After the duel between those two people, there was a truce between the Greek alliance and Troy. However, both Hera and Athena were not happy to see it. Hera pursued her husband ZEUS:“ Now, will you send Athena to make the Troyjans break the peace?”(Page 22) Then with Zeus’s permission, Athena went down to start the war again and finally she brought the Greeks to success. From the whole story, we can see that in ancient Greeks’ view, gods sometimes played a much more important role in their life. However, with the rapid development of science, we have learned that the Greek gods never existed.

　　This is why a recent movie of Troy has not mentioned a single god. Everything happened due to men’s ambition, love, loyalty or jealousy. With those emotion and people’s effort, we human beings can accomplish wonders and be master of the world. God are of less importance than they used to be. Nonetheless, the gods and goddesses made The Story of Troy more mysterious and marvelous. I have learnt from the book more than the wonderful story of history, love and war. I believe that human can determine their destiny by their own. I highly recommend this book to my friends.

　　The Epic of Troy, a timeless tale of love, war, and destiny, has captivated audiences for centuries. The intricate web of relationships, the tumultuous battles, and the profound themes of loyalty, honor, and free will make this epic a veritable masterpiece of ancient literature. Upon reading this epic, I was struck by its profound impact on my understanding of human nature and the complexities of life.

　　Firstly, the epic serves as a window into the ancient Greek worldview. The gods, with their omnipotence and meddling in human affairs, provide a fascinating backdrop to the story. While we, as modern readers, may find it difficult to relate to a world where divine intervention is so prevalent, it is nonetheless fascinating to explore this ancient perspective. The gods, whether it be Athenas scheming or Apollos prophecies, add an element of mystery and unpredictability to the narrative, making the outcome of each event seem all the more momentous.

　　However, it is the human characters and their struggles that truly captivate my attention. The love story between Paris and Helen, though tumultuous and fraught with consequences, is a testament to the power of affection. Helens decision to leave her husband and kingdom for a man she loved deeply highlights the strength of emotion and the lengths to which people will go for love. On the other hand, the conflict between Achilles and Hector, two warriors bound by duty and honor, demonstrates the complexities of loyalty and the conflicts that arise when personal values clash with societal norms.

　　The theme of free will versus destiny also runs throughout the epic. The prophecy of the fall of Troy, while ominous and foreboding, does not deter the Trojans from fighting for their kingdom. In fact, it seems to inspire them even more, as they strive to defy fate and secure the future of their city. This struggle between free will and destiny is a universal theme that resonates with readers regardless of time or culture. It highlights the human desire to control our own destinies, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

　　Another aspect of the epic that struck me was its portrayal of war and its consequences. The battles described in the text are brutal and bloody, with soldiers dying in droves. The suffering and loss endured by both the Trojans and the Greeks serve as a reminder of the horrors of war and the need for peace. The epic does not glorify war but instead depicts it as a necessary evil that brings destruction and misery in its wake.

　　Finally, the epics portrayal of characters as complex and multidimensional beings struck me deeply. Achilles, for example, is not simply a great warrior but also a man of deep emotion and complex motivations. His love for Polyxena and his anger over her death drive him to seek revenge, even at the cost of his own life. Hector, too, is not just a brave warrior but also a loving husband and devoted son. His devotion to his family and his kingdom make him a truly heroic figure.

　　In conclusion, The Epic of Troy is a profound and moving tale that speaks to the human condition in a way that transcends time and culture. Its themes of love, war, destiny, and free will are universal and enduring, making it a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human nature and the meaning of life. I highly recommend this epic to anyone seeking to broaden their horizons and deepen their understanding of the world.
