The ILIAD (a snapshot)

[@kylamikaelaaotai5789]

Thank you po for uploading this short but informative snapshot of Iliad. (1-12)

[@bridgetpajaroja1272]

I am teary-eyed by this poem, having my father separated from me from an early age, I did not get the chance to feel how a father protects her daughter. The love of Chryses has for his daughter is unconditional. This is a beautiful example of how far a father will go to protect his daughter from any harm. Pajaroja, Bridget T. NLEC 4

[@timmyparanal5737]

This quick snapshot of this story is enough to show us some layers of life. Some people value their loved ones to an extent that they're willing to beg and do everything for them. Some people are too egoistic and self-centered that they don't even care how cruel they become just to feed their pride. And there are good people who experience terrible circumstances that they never deserved. Sometimes people just take our loved ones or valuable things away from us, some of us are strong enough to take them back like Chrises did but most of us just quit and walk away as Achilles did. This just justifies that sometimes we're not the ones in control of our circumstances, but it's up to us how we deal with these circumstances. This is a really informative snapshot. Thank you, sir! Timmy D. Paranal NLEC 5

[@elaineguillermo2094]

It is my first time listening to this poem, and I have to say what stood out to me the most was the incomparable love of Chryses to his daughter, Chryseis. It was highly evident how much he was willing to give and do everything within his power just to bring back Chryseis. This poem truly had me captivated for the type of love a father gives to his daughter. Guillermo, Elaine Annrey I-18

[@hazelsobredilla6002]

I remember when I was in Grade 10, we watched the movie film 'Troy' the adaptation of Homer's great epic The Iliad, as a part of our lesson. We watched it and broke it into four parts; after each portion, my teacher would ask us about our insights from that segment. I can still envision how fantastic that film was. However, we can witness a father's deep affection in this video. Thank you for this, Sir! Sobredilla, Hazel R. OBTEC I-13

[@christianlago1206]

The Iliad focused primarily on Achilles' fury as well as Chryses' devotion for his daughter. The video did a fine job of explaining it. Though there are a number of times in it that I find to be really perplexing. Ultimately, thank you, Sir Peña for this lecture. LAGO, CHRISTIAN A. NLEC-4

[@lloydstevenmequiabas5455]

This video shows a short yet concise snapshot showing the story's main conflict: Achilles' anger towards King Agamemnon who took his prize to appease his own wounded pride due to a plague in which he was ultimately to be blamed for. It provided enough information to pique the curiosity of the readers, thus challenging him to explore the Iliad (and its sequel, the Odyssey). Thank you so much for this video! ------ Lloyd Steven N.

The snippet of Iliad shows what father's love can do, Chryses did what was unusual for the sight of many. Moreover, the connection between its characters is a perfect bridge to know the other western literature characters. Thank you Sir, for sharing this very wonderful and informative video presentation! Salibay, Grace Joy I. NLEC 5

[@madonnatara9869]

The incomprehensible love a father has for his child is one of the story's high points. He pursued zealously and prayed to Apollo only to have his daughter back-something that is sympathetic for many audiences-despite the possibility that his revenge would be terrible and that others might be significantly harmed. A reflection of how amazing and potent a straightforward epic poem is is found in Homer's The Iliad. Tara, Madonna U. NLEC-5

[@mariaalexisbanez593]

This is quite refreshing. During my high school days, we had a role play with this story. Such a good story to talk about. All the dramas and war are worth reading. But this is indeed a new information to me, Iliad is also about a "father's love". Hope to learn more about this. Something more deeper but I'm afraid we don't have time for that. Indeed a great snapshot. Bañez, Maria Alexis NLEC4

[@rodchelpascual7973]

This poem is not the first time I've heard it. This snapshot, on the other hand, makes it more comprehensive and detailed. The idea that a father's love is unconditional is one of my favorites. A father might go to considerable extents to provide for his daughter. RODCHEL PASCUAL OBTEC I-18

The poem greatly exemplified on how a father's love can test everything on the world just for the happiness of their sons and daughters. I do salute the dedication of Chryses to make his daughter free from the grasp of King Agamemnon. I hope that all fathers on this world would take Chryses as one of their inspiration to continually give love to their family through difficult times. ELAMIE FREDA G. CABANELA NLEC-6

[@jwynkytegaraygay3962]

What I can only say after heading the poem is that it is incredibly heartwarming. Imagine that your father would sacrifice anything for you without hesitation in order to make you happy; a father's love isn't replacement and genuine, and I've only ever had such experience once. Garaygay, Jwyn Kyte A. NLEC 6

[@hazelangelapielago384]

The Illiad was tackled before in junior high school, but I never got to pay full attention on it until today. The Illiad made me realize that love for a family, friend, or anyone can make you do things just to have them by your side even if it means harm to other people. Though it was supposed to be heart-melting, I find it sad that many have died for the stubbornness of their king. Hazel Angela Pielago NLEC 5

[@jimleahcabiles9846]

The excerpt provides a genuine explanation of how ignorance of one’s action can lead to a much bigger problem.

I love how Chryses love for his daughter, Chryseis, was highlighted in the video. However, I felt bad for those soldiers who died during the plague, which Chryses prayed to Apollo.

This snapshot of the Iliad tells not only the epic poem's story but also the love of a father for his daughter. I was amazed at the love of Chryses for his daughter, Chryseis.

Atrides is an example of a greed leader, which is a nasty and dishonorable attribute considering his position.

The snapshot of this poem was tackled to us when I was in junior high school, but I still get chills and my heart melts when I recall the scenario when Chrises prayed and begged Apollo to take revenge and to free his daughter from Agamemnon. I also realized that, as a leader, you need to make decisions carefully and not rush things. Because of the decision made by Agamemnon, a plague happened in their place, and even innocent lives were lost. I am really excited to know more about this poem Johanna Mae Jose NLEC 5

[@jeremiahlumagbas2151]

The poem shows the destructiveness of insolence and how pride can ruin everything. Because of King Agamemnon's pride, the plague hit everyone under his rule and they paid the price for a sin they did not commit. Aside from that, it also shows the unending and unconditional love of a father, who is ready to risk and curse anything that comes between him and his loved ones. Truly, this poem was a roller coaster of emotions and thus showcases a true quality masterpiece of literature. Jeremiah Lumagbas NLEC 5
