In this article the author tries to present the images of two great heroes of The Iliad, Achilles and Hector, that emerges from the Roman poetry and compare them with those present in the Greek tradition. In this analysis, focus is primarily put on The Aeneid of Virgil and on Ovid’s works, with minor remarks to the works of other authors. The article concludes that in the case of Achilles there is a huge difference between the image of this character in the Greek tradition and in Roman poetry. Achilles, who for Greeks was an object of universal esteem, in the eyes of Romans has become a synonym of a criminal, a ruthless murderer and the personification of the destroyer of Troy. The image of Hector in Roman literature is also different from the Greek perspective, since Roman authors idealized the prince of Troy to such an extent that they saw him as the greatest hero of the Trojan War.

Przedmiotem artykułu jest kwestia wizerunku bohatera i jego adwersarza w epice oralnej. Przedstawiony został model ewolucyjnego przekształcania się wizerunku potwora w zgodzie ze zmianami funkcji i opisu herosa. Zmiany te odpowiadają wymogom struktury narracji oralnej w specyficzny sposób budującej napięcie. Przejście od eposu baśniowego do historycznego znamionuje wyrównanie sił obu walczących stron, w którym adwersarz, tracący rysy potworne, przejmuje poszczególne elementy charakterystyki herosa (począwszy od magicznych artefaktów mających wcześniej wyrównać szanse herosa w walce ze "smokiem" a na szlachetności natury skończywszy) stając się jego zwierciadlanym odbiciem.

In oral epic an image of the hero and his adversary is correlated. In the article there has been presented a model of the evolutionary transformation of the image of a monster in line with changes in the function and description of the hero. These changes correspond to the requirements of oral narrative structure, which is dynamic because singer’s main task is to build tension during performance of songs. The transition from the fairytale to historical epic marks the alignment of forces of the two warring parties, in which the adversary, losing monstrous scratches, takes over the individual elements of the hero (beginning from magical artifacts, which previously were to equal opportunities of the hero in the fight against the "dragon", and on the generosity of nature ending) becoming its mirror image.
