Aquiles era gay

La premisa de que Aquiles y Patroclo mantuvieron relaciones sexuales, representando así al hombre promedio de la antigua Grecia, tiene una probabilidad considerable. No obstante, la afirmación de que fueran "homosexuales" en el sentido contemporáneo de esta palabra resulta menos probable. Aquiles y Patroclo. Desde la antigüedad clásica surgieron interpretaciones sobre la posibilidad de que entre Aquiles y Patroclo existiera una relación homosexual, 15 aunque Homero no describe explícitamente la relación entre ellos como tal.

Some think he was bisexual, since there is evidence of his romantic attachments to both men and women, while others see his deep attachment to Patroclus as a confirmation that he was gay. Por supuesto, ni los más osados han querido demostrar que ambos héroes fueran exclusivamente homosexuales, ya que sí se nos dice que ambos compartían su tienda con esclavas. De hecho, Aquiles había tenido una relación anterior con una de las hijas de Licomedes de Esciro, Deidamia, fruto de la cual nacería su hijo Neoptólemo.

In the Iliad, Homer describes a deep, meaningful relationship between Achilles and Patroclus, where Achilles is tender toward Patroclus, but callous and arrogant toward others.

Its exact nature—whether homosexual, a non-sexual deep friendship, or something else entirely—has been a subject of dispute in both the Classical period and modern times. Jump to ratings and reviews.

The moment I read the first page I was already certain of two things: 1. Well, both of those things came true, even way earlier than I had initially anticipated.

This book was just so beautiful! So, so damn beautiful! Madeline Miller definitely has a way with words and I loved how this story was written: Poetical with a lot of mythological facts and with so many details that it succeeded to make this a more than just intriguing journey. Even though she never went into detail, never actually let them say that they loved each other; it was still palpable in every single moment they shared together.

Still, the sense of foreboding in this book!!! Oh gosh, it killed me!! All those little hints, those infinitesimal innuendos, those tiny insinuations, they piled up and up and up until all I was able to feel was dread!!! By the end of the book I was reduced to a sobbing and crying nervous wreck and the final sentence was like a dagger in my heart. In other words: This was exceptionally painful and utterly devastating, BUT it was also so damn good and worth every second of pain!

Heed my warning or get lost in the underworld. I loved him so much! He was every bit the hero people believed him to be and most of the time he actually did the right thing. Well, most of the time. Boy it destroyed me!
