of the suitors meet their fate and Odysseus claims his castle back. By using his wit he instructs that all the weapons be hidden before battle. It is this wisdom that helps him defeat the suitors.Finally Odysseus obeys the gods commands and travels inward till no man has seen the ocean. Carrying his large oar across his back and placing it in the dirt where a man asks him if the oar is a widowing fan. Odysseus is very wise. It would have been easy to have stayed at home and rested, but he knew what happened to people who did not obey the gods.In Conclusion, I have laid out some evidence showing Odysseus’s strength’s, Bravery, and faith. Also I have given examples of his dependency of the gods. I don’t believe anyone would argue that Odysseus was not a great man. Although I argue that he was still only a man. Between all of his hardships and troubles I will grant that he never lost faith and never chose a fate other than home. Works CitedHomer. “The Odyssey,” World Masterpieces: Expanded Edition.
