Ulysses. The hero of Homer's great poem was known to the Greeks under the name of Odysseus. He was king of the pastoral islands of Ithaca and Dulichium. Most of the petty Greek chieftains became suitors for the hand of the beautiful Helen, and Ulysses was among the number, but withdrew when he realised the smallness of his chances. He then married Penelope, the daughter of Icarius, and at the same time joined with the other unsuccessful lovers of Helen in a sworn league for her future protection should she ever stand in need of it. He then returned to Ithaca with his bride. The rape of Helen soon compelled him to leave Penelope and join the other Grecian princes in the great war against Troy. He endeavoured to avoid the summons by pretending madness. Yoking a horse and a bull together, he began to plough the sands of the sea shore. The messenger who was sent to him took Telemachus, the infant son of Ulysses, and placed the child in the direct course of the plough, in this way circumventing his design. Ulysses was one of the most prominent figures during the Trojan war, his valour, and still more his cunning, making him of supreme importance in the councils of the princes. After the Trojan war Ulysses set sail for home, and at this period of his career the story of the Odyssey begins. Includes vintage illustration!

The Adventures of Ulysses the Wanderer is a retelling of the Greek classic "The Odyssey" by Homer, written by Guy Thorne. Excerpt: "Ulysses slowly mounted the wooded hill. The path which rose towards the summit wound in and out through thick undergrowth, and his feet made no sound upon the green moss of the track. He had his spear ready for any game that he might chance on, but for half a day he saw no living thing save a few mailed lizards that lay open-eyed upon a stone. No birds twittered in the forest on the mountainside, only the wild bees sang in the stillness like jewels with voices. How beautiful the wood was! and how mysterious also. Ulysses felt a quickening of the pulses which did not come from fear, and a strange excitement possessed him which arose from he knew not what cause."

"Examining the act of wandering through many lenses, Wandering in Ancient Greek Culture addresses questions such as: Why did the Greeks associate the figure of the wanderer with the condition of exile? How was the expansion of the world under Rome reflected in the connotations of wandering? Does a person learn by wandering, or is wandering a deviation from the truth? In the end, this matchless volume shows how the transformations that affected the figure of the wanderer coincided with new perceptions of the world and of travel, and invites us to consider its definition and import today."--BOOK JACKET.

What will a man do to return to his home? For ten years, Odysseus longed for his home of Ithaca and the wife he loved more than life. Individuals were murdered, children died, and everyone he met encountered his deceit. Even his friends died in his quest. He did things he knew would trouble his very soul. But he justified it by his longing to be with his Penelope.It was he who ended the war. Every male, from the aged King Priam, to Hector's infant son, Astyanax, died in the sack of Troy. Only a few women escaped the destruction to become slaves. This because of Odysseus's desire to get home."What crime have I committed?" He cried into the winds that would destroy him."Your crime is pride," the enslaved queen of the Trojans proclaimed. "You have the belief that you are above the gods and answer to no one. Pride in your own abilities has blinded your recognition of god's grace and this vanity of yours will be your downfall. The gods will not let you go unpunished for this."What followed was a decade of adventure, but adventure that cost the life of every man he brought out of Troy. Finally, stranded on a barren island far into the distant ocean, he comes to terms with his crimes and finds redemption.
