I'm like this irl too.
So it turns out my understanding of the Iliad isn't as amazing as I thought it was? I read it for fun on my own time but now that I'm doing it in class-
I rock the little details. It's just every so often the super special symbolism sneak attacks me. Like the shield.
My mythology teacher had us draw the ~*SHEILD OF ACHILLES*~. I was like 'whut' but I really got into it. There are so many cities and dancing people and lions all up in this shield. I only had one piece of paper and I was trying to draw tiny constellations and essentially I used up all my meager artistic abilities before I got to the ocean. This thing is hard core is what I'm saying.
Still I felt like I had completed the assignment to the best of my ability. My teacher asked me what exactly the big deal was. Clearly this giant hunk of bronze is a big freaking deal. So I told him what I thought.
Apparently the shield of Achilles is not meant to symbolize the evolution of man. Apparently this is the first time he's ever hear such a strange thing. Drat.
That's a lot of wasted time drawing sheep.
