| Summary | "Ομήρου Οδύσσεια Τόμος Α" by Homer is an epic poem written in ancient times, likely during the early classical period. This foundational work of Western literature recounts the adventures and struggles of Odysseus as he attempts to return home to Ithaca after the Trojan War, while facing numerous trials and tribulations. The poem explores themes of heroism, loyalty, and the influence of the divine, particularly through the character of Odysseus. The beginning of "Odyssia" introduces the audience to the main character, Odysseus, who is held captive by the nymph Calypso on a remote island. The narrative opens with a hymn to the Muse, requesting inspiration to tell the tale of Odysseus, described as a "man of many ways" who has faced countless hardships. As the plot unfolds, we learn that while Odysseus longs to return to his homeland and reunite with his wife Penelope, the god Poseidon opposes him due to a past grievance. The goddess Athena, sympathetic to Odysseus's plight, seeks to intervene and ensure his return while also addressing the troubles Ithaca faces in his absence, including the predatory suitors vying for Penelope's hand.
