Write a 750-1000 word response to this essayby John Heath. Whether you agree or disagree
with his argument is up to you, but you should make clear that you have read and
understood it. Start your essay by summarizing it (two paragraphs suggested).Support your
response with clear reference to the Iliad (4 quotes) and to Genesis (2 quotes). You may also
wish to cite a different part of the Bible that Heath mentions, and you may replace one of the
Genesis quotes. Whatever you quote, make sure to provide the context of the quote: what’s
happening in the narrative or story, who’s speaking to whom, etc. Aim to devote at least one
paragraph to each quote: setting up the scene and context, and connecting it to your overall
argument.
