Answer: Society, religion, art.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Iliad and the Odyssey are the works of the Greek writer Homer, dating from the eighth century BC, and are the oldest preserved works of European literature.

Odyssey - The story follows the main character Odysseus on his travels, where he encounters various obstacles on his journey home. The central theme addressed in this work is the transition of society from the slave to the slave. This phase and these transitions in society are clearly defined in the work. Thanks to the Odyssey that one can trace what the process looked like, and what the community of that time looked like.

Iliad - A work that describes the battle between the Trojans and the Greeks. The central theme is war, and thanks to this piece, it is possible to analyze the war opportunities of the time. In addition to the analysis of the Iliad, it is possible to form a broader picture of the religious beliefs of the ancient Greeks as well as their art.
