In this lecture, we discuss (a) the mounting injuries of the Achaians (Diomedes, Odysseus, Machaon, Eurypylos); (b) Patroklos' mission to Nestor, and Nestor deploys the full-force of his rhetorical appeals to valor, pity, and honor; and finally we conclude by examining (c) the choice Nestor asks Achilleus to make: return to the fighting or allow Patroklos to wear your armor, and this decision's potential consequences. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support
