Ancient Greece and reason.
For what reason is there when the gods have fury? The Greek gods are green with envy, erupt with jealousy. Socrates and Plato turned away from Homer. His works were too human. They wanted reason. And, after Socrates and Plato, man seeketh Stoicism.
What would Homer make of the Stoic man? What does the Stoic man make of Homer? Of the Greek gods: the gods of rage, lust, and despair?
Aristotle could appreciate Homer.
