Key Notes
model
On fate, Bromwich says Shakespeare seems to believe in a moral order where wrongdoing is legible, evil has different causes and gradations, and truth has a strengthening power because human actions are witnessed and judged.
diagnosis
Jiang implies that even a hypocritical Church teaching that money is evil is preferable to a naked money-order that openly tells the poor they are nothing and deserve damnation.
diagnosis
The gods' disgust and Zeus's intervention make the Priam-Achilles reconciliation into a cosmic moral problem, not merely a practical ransom negotiation.
model
The host reframes the audience question as a test of moral mandate: whether a Greater Israel project could actually replace American hegemony by uniting Abrahamic legitimacy around Jerusalem.
