1. Hector is determined to keep fighting because of his pride and because he doesn't want his people to think he is a coward for not standing up for himself.
2. Hector thinks his wife's future will be miserable and she'll be taken as a slave. He also knows that his wife has had some bad experience with Achilles so it won't give her any gratitude.
3. Hectors attitude towards fate is that he loves it. He believes that everyone's fate is determined at birth. Hector tries to explain that if it's meant to happen, it's going to happen and that there is nothing himself or anyone could do about it.
4. I learned that a husband like Hector is kind and loving, as a father he wants his son to be great and to succeed, greater than him and achieve more, and as a warrior he is strong, brave, and he values his pride.
5. Hector and Achilles are both epic heroes, but in my opinion Hector is more heroic than Achilles because Hector is not part god and he's still courageous and he goes to fight even though he knows he's going to die. Hector is therefor more heroic than achilles
Hector not only does not want to be seen as a coward for not standing up for himself but also the Trojan people.
