Major Events In The Odyssey

Part B
For Part B, I think in the book Iliad and the Odyssey, major events occurred that showed us the importance and taught us many different lessons. In other words we are able to conclude that some events had themes. The Iliad would be the first book that talks about a major event.

The suitors want to go steal his wife and his kingdom. The suitors still do not know that Odysseus is still alive. This book is basically about how Odysseus tries to disguise himself and go back to Ithaca to save his wife and kingdom. At the end it was very interesting because Odysseus returns, takes his wife back and basically you can say lived happily ever after.

These two books tried to grab the reader’s attention but at the same time show some moral or theme in the story. I think that the Iliad and The Odyssey both showed motivating themes. They both showed us the Glory of War. In both the Iliad and Odyssey the characters appear as worthy based on their competitiveness and bravery
