Heroic Conviction The tales of heroes have always fascinated the minds of men. They have been known to leave their listener, upon hearing of such strength, feeling empowered to live heroically themselves.

While food usually connotes festive times, Homer stretches the traditional perception of food in The Odyssey to something that is more ominous. From the beginning of the poem, Homer states that Odysseus and his crew were “destroyed by their own wild recklessness,” that they were “fools, who devoured the oxen of Helios, the Sun God, and he took away the day of…

Women at this time were seen as mere objects that acted as conciliation prizes for the gain of power and their sole use was for reproduction. Maintaining the duty of tiding the home and looking after the children, no outlet for an education or a chance to make a voice for…
