Military in the media
Representations of the military in the media date from the beginnings of recorded history and since that time soldiers and armies have featured widely in popular culture. In addition to the countless images of military leaders in heroic poses from antiquity, they have been an enduring source of inspiration in war literature. Not all of this has been entirely complementary and the military have been lampooned or ridiculed as often as they have been idolized.
==Classical antiquity==
The classical Greek writer Aristophanes, devoted an entire comedy, the ''Lysistrata'', to a strike organised by military wives where they withhold sex from their husbands to prevent them from going to war. The ''Iliad'', an ancient Greek epic poem in dactylic hexameters traditionally attributed to Homer, is set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy by a coalition of Greek states, and tells of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. The ''Odyssey'', also ascribed to Homer, is, in part, a sequel to the ''Iliad'', and is fundamental to the modern Western canon.〔D.C.H. Rieu's introduction to ''The Odyssey'' (Penguin, 2003), p. XI.〕 The ''Aeneid'', written by Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans.
