思考题:
- 西庇阿引用的是哪一处伊利亚特?
- 假设同一个人写了奥德赛和伊利亚特:如何解释Achilleus后来又说“O shining Odysseus, never try to console me for dying. / I would rather follow the plow as thrall to another man, one with no land allotted him and not much to live on, / than be a king over all the perished dead.”?
- What does Death of a Salesman say about meritocracy?
