The Trojan War was one of the most significant events in ancient history, inspiring epic poems, tragedies, and historical books from Homer to Virgil. The author traces the stories of these events in great detail through the Iliad, the Odyssey, and Aeschylus's Oresteia, amongst many other works. What emerges is a complex picture of the Trojan War that shifts dramatically depending on when and where an account was written. Ultimately, the author shows how these stories helped shape the identity of the ancient Greeks and Romans, and how they continue to inform our understanding of the war today.
