EXPOSITION
The Trojan War takes place between Troy and
Greece.
![Page 3: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
It all starts because of a beautiful woman named
Helen.
![Page 4: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
In Greece, all the men are fighting over Helen.
![Page 5: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
ANALOGY
This is very similar to the way Brad Pitt and
Leonardo DiCaprio fight over Ms. Rubin.
![Page 6: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Finally, after all the fighting, the men decide
that Helen should be able to pick the man she
wants to marry. Everyone makes a deal to defend and honor the
man that she selects.
![Page 7: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Helen decides to marry Menelaus.
![Page 8: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SUBPLOT
Meanwhile in another town, there is a huge party for all of
the Gods and Goddesses.
![Page 9: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The God of Discord throws a giant golden apple into the party.
This apple says, “To the fairest of them all.”
![Page 10: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
EXTERNAL CONFLICT
Immediately all of the Goddesses think the
apple is specifically for them; they all start
fighting.
![Page 11: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Finally, three Goddesses ask Paris to settle the dispute. The Goddesses are Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera.
![Page 12: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Each goddess tells Paris if he selects them, they will give him a special
reward.
![Page 13: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Athena, the Goddess of wisdom, tells Paris that she will make him the smartest individual in
all the land if he selects her.
![Page 14: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Hera is very strong; she tells Paris that she will
make him the most powerful person in all the land if he selects
her.
![Page 15: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Finally there is Aphrodite; she tells
Paris that if he selects her, she will make sure he can marry the most beautiful woman in all
the land.
![Page 16: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What did Paris pick? That’s right. He wants
to marry the most beautiful woman in all
the land.
(Ms. Rubin hehe just kidding). It’s Helen!
![Page 17: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
INITIAL INCIDENT
So off Paris went and took Helen away from
Menelaus.
![Page 18: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Now Menelaus is not okay with this. He goes to all of his friends and says, “You all promised to defend me. You said if anyone got in the way
of Helen’s decision you’d stand by my
side.”
![Page 19: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
All the men nod and agree. So off they go to get Helen back. This is what started the Trojan War, a fight over a girl.
![Page 20: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Agamemnon, Menelaus’ brother, led the troops to Troy. However, on
the way over, he upset a God very much.
![Page 21: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
It’s important to acknowledge that in
Ancient Greece, there are multiple Gods and
Goddess who run the world. If you upset them,
it’s very bad.
![Page 22: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Agamemnon upset this God so much, he
decided to stop the wind so the ship full of
men couldn’t go anywhere.
![Page 23: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
All the men were annoyed at
Agamemnon so he asked the God what he could do to make it up
to him. He told Agamemnon it was very
simple.
![Page 24: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
All he had to do was sacrifice his daughter,
Iphigenia.
![Page 25: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
As you can imagine, Agamemnon’s wife, Clytemnestra is not happy about this.
However, she’ll get her revenge later.
![Page 26: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
DRAMATIC IRONY
Now Agamemnon knew that Iphigenia would not agree to meet him if he was going to kill her, so
he made up a lie.
![Page 27: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Achilles is the strongest and most beautiful man in all of Greece.
Agamemnon decided to tell Iphigenia that Achilles wanted to
marry her and be her *bae.
*bae is youthful lingo to show Ms. Rubin is hip and can relate to you
![Page 28: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Iphigenia was so excited and rushed to go meet her father. When she got there,
Agamemnon felt a little bad about lying. He
decided to tell her the truth.
![Page 29: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Um Iphigenia, I was asked to sacrifice you to the Gods. I tricked you.
My bad.”
![Page 30: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Iphigenia was upset that she wasn’t going to marry Achilles, but she
understood that sometimes you need to do what the Gods say.
![Page 31: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
To Agamemnon’s surprise, Iphigenia said that he could sacrifice
her.
![Page 32: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
SITUATIONAL IRONYAgamemnon was scared but he lifted up the knife to kill his daughter. As
soon as he did that, she randomly turned into a
deer.
![Page 33: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The God was just testing Agamemnon to see if he would obey
them.
![Page 34: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Now the men were able to set sail and continue on their journey to Troy.
![Page 35: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
During the journey, Achilles gets in a huge fight with Agamemnon.
This is due to a silly fight over another girl.
![Page 36: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Achilles tells all the men that he refuses to fight. This reaction manages to scare all of the men because Achilles is the
strongest guy they have.
![Page 37: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Here is a little background on Achilles.
![Page 38: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
When Achilles was a baby, he was dipped in a special potion. This
potion has the power to protect Achilles from
any harm.
![Page 39: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
However, the only part of Achilles that was not
dipped in the potion was his heel. That’s
where he was held to be dipped, so it never
got covered.
![Page 40: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
DENOTATIONYou might have heard
the phrase Achilles Heel. That means
someone’s weakness.
![Page 41: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Ms. Rubin’s Achilles Heel is chocolate.
![Page 42: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Yours is complaining about homework
Oh snap!
![Page 43: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Anyway, back to the story. Now you can
imagine how awful that would be if your
strongest team member refused to help in
battle.
![Page 44: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
All the men were very discouraged, so
Achilles’ best friend, Patroclus decided to give them men some
confidence.
![Page 45: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
DRAMATIC IRONY
He put on all of Achilles’ clothing and pretended to be him. Now all the men thought Achilles
was going to fight.
![Page 46: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
ANTAGONIST
It’s important to know that Troy’s strongest
team member is a man named Hector.
![Page 47: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Now Hector sees Patroclus dressed up like Achilles and kills
him. He assumes he’s killing Achilles himself.
![Page 48: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Achilles gets word of this and his blood
begins to boil. Not only is his best friend dead, but his anger makes him eager to fight.
![Page 49: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Achilles immediately kills Hector. He does this because he is so
upset that he killed his best friend.
![Page 50: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Achilles also decides to tie up Hector’s dead
body on a chariot and drive it all around Troy.
![Page 51: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
He does this out of rage and spite. He wants everyone in Troy to know that their best
player is now dead and to bring it on!
![Page 52: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
So the fight between the men of Troy and the
men of Greece continue.
![Page 53: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Now the men of Greece are still angry and
wonder how they can trick the men of Troy.
![Page 54: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Odysseus comes up with an idea to create a giant wooden horse that some of the men can hide in.
*Remember Helen of 86th Street
![Page 55: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
DRAMATIC IRONY
They then place this horse in front of the walls of Troy. They
pretend to leave it as a gift of apology.
![Page 56: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Before the men of Troy see the gift, a
gentleman gets scared and warns the men that
it might be a trap. Suddenly, serpents
come out of the sea and devour him.
![Page 57: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
The Trojans view this as a sign that the man was lying, so they decide to
bring in the giant wooden horse.
![Page 58: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
As the Trojans fall asleep, the Greek men come out of the horse, open the gates to the city, and let the rest of
their army in.
![Page 59: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
ALLUSION
•Trojan Virus

The Greek men win the war, destroy the city of Troy, and are ready to
come home.
![Page 61: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
The Odyssey, is the story of Odysseus and his men trying to get back home to Greece
after the war.
![Page 62: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Unfortunately, Odysseus has trouble returning home due to
various obstacles. These obstacles include: temptation, sea
monsters, upsetting the Gods, and trouble with
his crew.
![Page 63: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Odysseus is away for twenty years trying to
return to his wife, Penelope and his son, Telemachus. Ten of these years with the
war, and ten lost at sea.
![Page 64: The Trojan War. EXPOSITION The Trojan War takes place between Troy and Greece](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081414/56649ea85503460f94bac276/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Welcome to The Odyssey.
