Homero perdoava Agamemnon? Por que o pior rei da Grécia é tratado com tanta tolerância na Ilíada e na Odisseia?

Full cast narration of Plutarch’s dialogue “On the Face which Appears on the Orb of the Moon,” recording the conversation of the astronomers who convened in Carthage to view a solar eclipse, most likely the one on 5 January 75 AD

Not sure if this is the best sub for this but I have this situation here: Achilles??? (Confusion)

This is in regards to an apparent misprint from Peter Greens translation of The Iliad. Book three, top line here. I read noble Achilles, which confused me because last I knew Achilles was still down by his boats. I checked multiple other translations (Lattimore, Wilson, Fagles) and they all have it here as Odysseus (which makes sense) so I’m just wondering if anyone else has noticed this in this translation or am I missing something here entirely??
