New Troy
Takes us out of our modern context and deepens the scope of what can be understood and admired in Homer. For me, Achilles is the essential, fundamental Other -- maybe because he's so complete. We envy Achilles his completeness because, I think, we don't recognize that its price is sorrow, and since we can't imagine a valid justification for divine rage, we find it hard to admire him. Hector, human in his incompleteness, can easily inspire our admiration -- but not our envy.
