The satisfaction ---- even love ---- of conflict inspired writers to chronicles which have lasted through the centuries. There was the wrestling bout between Odysseus and Ajax in which the winner was to receive 'a great tripod for standing on the fire, prized by the Achaians among them at twelve oxen's worth,' and loser's prize was a woman, 'skilled in manifold work, and they prized her at four oxen." ---- from the Foreword..
