    Initially, using his boundless bravery and extraordinary leadership instincts, Odysseus is able to spare several of his crew men’s lives from the monstrous Cyclops'. Although the Cyclops is a “mighty man” with great strength, Odysseus “[speaks] up in reply” to him because of his gallantry (Homer 152, 278-80). Odysseus knows that standing up for his men is the only way to protect them, he must be brave and demonstrates this by sacrificing himself to prevent the giant man-eating Cyclops from consuming his men. He “[drew] the sharp sword from [his] hip” and “[stabbed] him where the midriff holds the liver”, blinding the immense beast (154, 324-27). Odysseus’s bold decision to stab the Cyclops requires superior leadership, facing a giant individually…

With the way Odysseus and his men treated the Cyclops, it is understandable that he would lose it. The men came “to take some of the cheeses, come back again, and the next time/to drive the lambs and kids from their pens” (IX, 225-226). The men even had the audacity to say that because they were strangers he “might give us a guest present or otherwise/ some gift of grace, for such is the right of strangers” (IX, 266-267). The Cyclopes had to defend himself against this intruders, so he did what he had to do to try and protect his home, animals, and his ownself. There may be some people out there who would disagree,…

    Every author has their own perspective on different myths. As we can see, there are three different versions of the myth regarding Cyclops Polyphemus, written by Homer, Theocritus, and Ovid, respectively. All three authors portrayed Cyclops Polyphemus in different ways, according to their own views. Homer portrayed Polyphemus as a violent monster, Theocritus portrayed him as a lovesick creature, and Ovid portrayed him as a mix of Homer and Theocritus's portrayal.
