The main idea of ​​the Iliad is written in the first line, as Homer asks the Muse to sing of the “wrath of Achilles”. The main theme of the Ilyad is anger – the vice that is not included in Homer's ideal, which leads to impulsive decisions and alienation from society, but its absence entails good consequences. Homer tries to teach his people that anger can lead to rushing. and impulsive decisions. It is well presented when Paris stole Helen from Agamemnon, leading to his anger and the start of the Trojan War. Thousands of Greeks died during this war sparked by the anger of Agamemnon. In the Iliad, Homer gives a good example of a bad king. Of a king who impulsively started the deadliest ancient war because of his anger and wrath.

This can lead to hasty, impulsive and rash decisions. As happened with Agamemnon and Achilles. Additionally, anger can lead to alienation from society. As in the case of Achilles who distanced himself from his warriors and the Greeks in general. But the absence of anger brings good consequences, inspires people to perform good deeds and make good decisions. This happened when Achilles returned to battle and returned Hector's corpse. He returned to society. He corrected his old mistakes. In the Iliad, Homer tries to teach his people the basics of morality and this is one of his lessons..
