題幹
Of Homer’s two epic poems, the Odyssey has always been more popular than the
Iliad, perhaps because it includes more features of mythology that are
accessible to readers. Its subject (to use Maynard Mack’s categories) is “
life-as-spectacle,” for readers, diverted by its various incidents, observe
its hero Odysseus primarily from without; the tragic Iiiad, however, presents
“Iife-as-experience”: readers are asked to identify with the mind of
Achilles, whose motivations render him a not particularly likable hero. In
addition, the lliad, more than the Odyssey, suggests the complexity of the
gods’ involvement in human actions, and to the extent that modern readers
find this complexity a needless complication, the Iliod is less satisfying
than the Odyssey, with its simpler ‘scheme of divine justice. Finally, since
the Iliad presents a historically Verifiable action, Troy’s siege, the poem
raises historical questions that are Absent from the Odyssey’s blithely
imaginative world.
