THE ILIAD: The Ancient Book That Taught to be Human‼️ Professor Jiang Xueqin #education #motivation

For over 2,500 years, readers have felt that Achilles, Hector, Odysseus, and the other heroes of the Iliad are more than fictional characters, they feel alive. How was Homer able to create characters with such depth, emotion, and psychological realism? Why do modern readers still see themselves reflected in Achilles' pride, vulnerability, ambition, and struggle for recognition? In this Lecture of the Iliad, Professor Jiang Xueqin uncovers: *Why great books help us understand ourselves *The connection between imagination and consciousness; *How Homer created characters that feel real across cultures and centuries; *The psychological conflict between Achilles and Agamemnon; *Carl Jung's theory of archetypes and the collective unconscious; *Why stories shape civilizations; *The timeless power of empathy, self-awareness, and human nature Discover why the Iliad remains one of the greatest works ever written and how its lessons continue to resonate in the modern world.
