Exploring the contrast between human and divine bodies, the narrative delves into the significance of physicality in the Iliad. After Patroclus's death, his dreamlike appearance to Achilles emphasizes the tangible nature of human existence, marked by aging and suffering. In contrast, the gods possess imperishable bodies, free from the constraints of time and physical needs. This distinction highlights the human experience of mortality and the inherent limitations of the physical form, underscoring the themes of visibility and materiality in life.
