Best Answer

Homer was the author of The Odyssey and The Iliad; both The Iliad and The Odyssey gave insight into what the Greeks not only did (as in tactics in war, as in the case with The Iliad) but a look into how they saw the Olympian gods in action; Homer preserved the ideals of the Greeks in his writings. He did not necessarily shape the Greek spirit during his time, but he cleared some obscure customs and beliefs for future generations.
