    A story centered on homecoming and traveling, The Odyssey by Homer, set in Ancient Greece, has key themes, which include hospitality and the treatment of travelers and strangers. These reoccurring themes are depicted often as Odysseus and Telemakhos show up at the doorsteps of his various hosts, and these themes prove how inhospitable the suitors are. The difference between good and bad is clearly drawn in the Odyssey, good people are hospitable, they hope for Odysseus' return, and are kind to O...

  • How Ethical Are The Gods In Iliad
    1,759 words

However, the Greek term ethics also implies character as opposed to its Latin counterpart referring to social customs. Ethics is descended from ethics which, in turn from ethos which means character or nature. Ethos is the fundamental and distinctive characteristic of a group within its social context or period of time, typically expressed in its attitudes, habits or beliefs....

  • First Four Home Life
    923 words
    The story of the Odyssey begins 20 years after Odysseus leaves his home, and his family. The setting is the family home in Ithaka, and our main character (at this point) is Telemachos, son of the great Odysseus. By beginning the story at this time and location rather than focusing straight in on Odysseus's intuition, the reader is given an "inside view" of Odysseus' home life, and from these first 4 books we are given much very valuable background information. One such piece of information is le...

  • Daughter Of Zeus Human Affairs
    1,862 words
    Significance and role of gods in the Homers Iliad One of the main features of the greek literature is that the gods play a significant role in the lives and fates of the mortal dwellers of the earth. As one examines the gods throughout the myths and epic poems of the Greeks, one recieves a strong impression that the gods "play" with and manipulate mortals and each other. The Christian God does not take such an active role in the affairs of people's lives, where, the Greeks regarded direct involv...

  • Epics Beginning Trojan War Women
    1,044 words
    Female Power in The Odyssey Throughout time women have had to fight hard for respect and the rights that come with it. Many societies have portrayed women as second class citizens, teaching that they should be subservient to men. There have been those who have spent entire lifetimes working to break beyond the traditional concepts of women and power. It is very challenging, however, for the sex to achieve higher status, when a society teaches not to speak out or against mens wishes. How can one ...

    Becoming a man. The goal attempted by all young boys, but achieved by few. Around the age of fifteen the dream of going on some adventure and risking death to prove bravery is envisioned in our heads and we go crazy. We scan every moment of our teenage lives for a chance at manhood and in some form or other we all get one. Usually it isnt an extravagant adventure as wed like, but some menial task we have to settle for. For Telemachos, on the other hand, its the quest of a lifetime. To sail off i...

  • Return Home 5 Ln
    885 words
    The majority of the Odyssey is an account of Odysseus adventures (or, rather, misadventures) trying to reach his homeland of Ithaka. Several of these adventures are false homecomings, the most prominent of which is his imprisonment on Kalypso s island. This false homecoming is strikingly different from what one would expect of Odysseus real homecoming, but similar enough for parallels to be drawn between the two. Homer uses this false homecoming to foreshadow Odysseus true homecoming. Throughout...

  • City Of Troy Apollo
    1,924 words
    The gods and goddesses that the Greek people believe in make up the Greek mythology studied today. These divine characters represent a family living on Mount Olympus who intervene frequently in the lives of the human characters in Greek plays. They are omnipresent, for they are always observing mans actions and working through human nature. The gods are a higher power, and provide explanations for otherwise unexplainable events. The gods help humans in trouble and give them guidance about the fu...

  • Divine Intervention Greek Gods
    1,525 words
    The religion of the ancient Greeks was polytheistic, consisting of the worship of various gods who presided over different aspects of human existence. In addition, the Greek gods are not spiritual beings but are anthropomorphic. They resemble human beings and tend to act in a human way, displaying all human vices, virtues, emotions, and beliefs. This anthropomorphism continues past the personalities of the Greek gods and on into their social structure: a patriarchal organization that closely res...

  • One Of The First Apollo
    1,379 words
    Gods play an integral role in Homeric society. They are very active in the lives of humans, both in wartime and peacetime. People depend on the gods to help them fight wars, protect their loved ones, and just improve their everyday lives. Since they do play such a large role in the lives of humans, people often blame or credit gods for things they had no involvement in. This can lead to complicated dealings between gods and humans. The best way for humans to get what they want from the gods is t...

    ? You! You chameleon! / Bottomless bag of tricks! Here in your own country / would you not give your stratagems a rest / or stop spellbinding for an instant? (Homer, XIII, 345 - 48) This exchange between the Grey Eyed Goddess Athena marks Odysseus return to his homeland of Ithaca, and spells doom for the Suitors.

    1,437 words
    Penelope, the wife of Odysseus, can be contrasted in various ways to the other characters in Homers poem The Odyssey. In many ways, Penelope embodies the ideal woman, in that she conforms to the values and ideals of her society. These ideals include faithfulness, loyalty, willpower, long-suffering, pride in ones home and family, and hospitality to strangers. The majority of the other characters in the poem lack one or more of these attributes. Although Odysseus proves to be a character of strong...
