Odysseus can be portrayed as an antihero in The Odyssey. A hero is clever‚ respectful‚ brave‚ and shows mercy. Odysseus is the complete opposite of a hero. He is immature‚ barbaric‚ unfaithful‚ and a coward. Being faithful‚ or loyal‚ is one of the main aspects of being a hero. Book V shows us that Odysseus might not have been so faithful to Penelope: “Now as he spoke the sun set‚ dusk drew on/ and they retired‚ this pair‚ to the inner cave/ to revel and rest softly‚ side by side” (5. 234-236)

however this was not the case for Odysseus because he was stuck at sea for 10 full years.

My first reason that Odysseus is still a good guy is because he tried to protect his crew. During his trip home from the trojan war‚ Odysseus did not make any decisions

I think Odysseus fits the title of a hero very well. Odysseus fits the description of a hero because he’s done a few things that are heroic. The first heroic thing he has done is go fight in a war with the trojans. Odysseus had come up with a plan for his men during the war. That plan was to build a big wooden horse as a gift for the trojans‚ the trojans accepted it and brought it inside their village. The trojans didn’t know Odysseus and his men were inside the big wooden horse‚ Odysseus and his

The Odysseus who leaves Troy changes into a completely different man before he arrives at his home in Ithaca. The hero endures many trials and tribulations induced by the menis of Poseidon‚ but learns from his mistakes and matures much through his trek.

It is Poseidon who keeps Odysseus in the face of danger‚ and it is Poseidon who keeps him suffering. Until the seventh year of

A good leader should have self-control‚ physical strength and a lot of perseverance. I think Odysseus shows those characteristics plenty of time throughout the epic. Odysseus shows self-control when he resists
