Hospitality and the gods

Visit this site to get a look at the relationship between the gods and expectations of hospitality in The Odyssey.

A harpy and comical description

I was very interested in a visual of this horrible creature.  I hope everyone enjoys the comic relief.

This might help start to sort out some of the character's relationships.

Gilgamesh help

Thinking back I thought there was a part where Gilgamesh was talking to Enkidu saying how staying in the city was basically making them fat and lazy, so they needed to go on an adventure. I've been looking through the book, but can't seem to find it. Does anybody else remember this and possibly have a page number where it can be found? Or am I just losing my mind and it's not actually in the story?

Last Chapters of The Odyssey

Hello Everyone,

I added a video about the final books of the Odyssey.

Give the video your attention.

Odysseus vs the Suitors

I seen this clip for the first time a few years back and happened to find it again. It's an extremely cheesy fight scene between Odysseus and the suitors.

Liar Liar

Odysseus is possibly one of the greatest liars/storytellers ever.  Even Athena believes it, so you know it has to be true right?  I love how he's always testing everyone, even his swineherd and his house servants.  If they aren't loyal to him then they will die with the suitors.  And that's why I love Odyssseus, because he doesn't take too kindly to those who betray him.
