1. What does Patroclus propose to Achilles and what is Achilles’ response? Why does Achilles grant Patroclus’ request? I think what Patroclus proposes to Achilles is that he wanted to fight the men who were going to set fire to the ships. I think Achilles let Patroclus do this because Achilles said in book nine that he would not fight unless fire was set to the ships so maybe he let patroclus fight so the ships would not burn.
2. 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?
2.Well i think that patroclus is trying to say that Achilles is so courageous that it is possible to hurt his self and well being. I agree with patroclus because going back to the movie when he was the first one on shore and started fighting with about only 20 men, I think that it would have been possible for him to die because he was courageous.
3. Either ask questions about the text or write down vocab words from the text with definitions.
