What does Patroclus propose to Achilles and what is Achilles’ response? Why does Achilles grant Patroclus’ request?
Protroclus tells achilles he wants to fight. because it will help the achean to incerease theier moral value if they see achilles body armor. even if it isnt achilles in the armor.Achilles gives patrocolus his armor and he guards the ships.
On p. 413 line 35 (approximately), Patroclus tells Achilles that Achilles is “cursed in [his] own courage.” What does Patroclus mean by that and do you agree with him?
mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty
synonyms COURAGE, METTLE, SPIRIT, RESOLUTION, TENACITY mean mental or moral strength to resist opposition, danger, or hardship.
I think he means that Achilles has too much courage and he is cursed wiht it because he belives too much in himself. this goes back to pride.
