The “we’re the sea people” and “the end of the Bronze Age” definitely felt like a lecturing to me.
And turning Odysseus into a soldier with PTSD from the warlord dealing with the hubris caused by his pride also another modern day appropriation.
Oh, those parts were just kinda there to me, I didn’t pay attention to it. What do you mean by the hubris caused by his pride? Isn’t hubris a synonym of pride?
Hubris is fundamentally tied to excessive pride. Many ancient tales handles this issue, like tales of Icarus, Gilgamesh, etc.
But you’re right, my usage is more of a language error because English is my third language.
