Characters  Odysseus- main character who is our hero of this story and is showing his identity by looking on his past adventures  Aeolois- a helpful king who shows Xenia, but also demonstrates fear of the gods by not helping Odysseus the second time  Crew- at first they show loyalty, but then they show how temptation can lead to trouble when they opened the bag as we learned from our earlier destruction myths  Kirke- demonstrates power of goddesses, but also disputes the way of the patriarchal society by getting rid of the men in her world so she as a woman could lead  Antiphates- demonstrates the risks of this journey and obstacles on Odysseus' way home and also does not show Xenia  Eurylokhos- one of Odysseus’ crew members. Shows doubt of Odysseus  Shows good leadership at first, but breaks down when he encounters Kirke.

Themes  Xenia- Aeolis displays Xenia by holding a feast for Odysseus and housing him for a month (pg line 15)  Desire to Return Home- Aeolis gives him supplies because Odysseus’ only desire is to return home  Loyalty- Aeolis shows Odysseus loyalty by helping him get home  Crew first shows loyalty when voyage starts  Crew betrays loyalty first by opening Odysseus’ bag of gifts  Pleasure vs. Duty- Odysseus sleeps with Kirke to free crew  Role of Women- Kirke despises men and uses her powers over men by making them into pigs  Conflict: Man & Gods- Aeolis believes the rest of the gods are against Odysseus.

Epithets  Aiolos- wind king dear to the gods, warden of winds  Odysseus- glory of commanders, o great contender, master mariner and soldier, master of land and sea ways  Kirke- loveliest of all immortals

Odysseus: LeaderOdysseus: Leader  As a leader Odysseus has always been very wise, but his crewmate Eurylokhos believes he is over confident and will end up killing the whole crew  Odysseus may be becoming a little hubristic is his strength as a leader and warrior and hero, but it has not been the death of him  The sadness from all his dead crew members may be taking a toll and he can only put up with so much loss when he is already feeling like he lost his home

Continued  When Odysseus heads off to attack Kirke against Eurylokhos’ suggestion he is making a rash move, but he is saved by Hermes  The influence of the gods has once again saved Odysseus’ life  Odysseus does not make many mistakes as a leader, but it appears that way since he has encountered many bad hosts who have killed his men
