Though they occupy a variety of roles and speak eloquently for themselves in every role, these women have been obscured by the assumption that each epics central hero, Achilles and Odysseus, respectively, is also its singular hero. And yet, the story of the Iliad is not the story of Achilles, just as the story of the Odyssey is not the story of Odysseus alone.
