The Home View of morality in the Iliad starts by the anger of Achilles and its consequence. Its message is direct one: we must be prepared to answer for the results of our own actions and realize that when we act wrongly, we will cause suffering both for ourselves and, perhaps more important, for those we love. Although the setting of the Iliad is heroic, even mystical, the theme of human is found universal.
