Odysseus

I believe Odysseus is a hero because he stuck with his wife and never gave up on himself. He struggled long and hard to get back to his wife and son. He went through places where he never thought he would get out of like the underworld for instance, yet he believed he could and he did. I also believe Odysseus is not a hero, because he took his luxury time to get home while his wife was in pain. He did not show much strive to get home which makes him untrustworthy. Odysseus is a hero in some cases and not a hero in other cases, which really conflicts his overall appearence.

  1. You are missing specific steps of the Hero's Journey, and you refer to events that did not happen in our assigned readings.
