Odysseus. O The name "Odysseus" probably comes from the ancient Greek - "oδύσσομαι" ("to be angry", "to be angry") and thus means "He who is angry" or "He who hates".






The beginning of the book is how it begins. O Ithaca has long been known as a beautiful island. There was everything here - cows and goats, and pigs, olives and grapes, and clean spring water. And there was plenty of everything. There were strong and courageous warriors and wise gray-haired elders. There were beautiful girls and virtuous mothers here. O The king wanted an heir. And he was born in the fall on a stormy rainy evening. Laertes was looking forward to his first child. And the queen was afraid of childbirth. There were elderly women around her all the time. Even Anticlea's father came here. Everyone was expecting the birth of a son. The soothsayer living on the other side of the island predicted that this would be a son and Fate would make him a hero and a hero. O Everyone believed. This is what they wanted! O The boy was born large, blue-eyed, loud-voiced. The whole island, from the king to the shepherd and the swineherd, rejoiced and feasted. O Anticlea, as soon as she recovered, declared to her husband: “I will feed our son myself! My milk contains divine nectar. After all, his grandfather Autolycus is the son of Hermes. My son will become godlike!” O Not every mother allowed children to her breast. It was customary for rich offspring to be fed by women who had the disposition of the Gods to do so. O Anticlea showed love and selflessness.


End of the book. O Throughout June, a huge army was gathering in Boeotia. There was no longer room in the harbor of Avled for the arriving and arriving ships. Menelaus came with sixty ships, Agamemnon brought the same number. Achilles and Patroclus brought fifty ships, Great Ajax - twelve, and Small Ajax brought a squad of archers and slingers of forty people. All of Greece gathered strength. More than a thousand ships have already arrived. O Odysseus believed and hoped that the conflict would end in negotiations. O For him and Penelope this was the first separation. They were happy together. Their son delighted them with his babbling. And then he began to get up and crawl. And now he started walking. Penelope blossomed, and her happiness illuminated others. Odysseus, despite his worries and unpleasant thoughts about the war, was also imbued with this light of happiness. But they were less and less likely to have these happy moments spent together. O At the end of May, twenty ships were supplied with provisions and weapons. The day of departure was approaching. All of Ithaca came out to see off the warriors. O Mother wept; even my father wiped away a tear. Fortunately for Odysseus, Penelope did not cry. She stood with her son in her arms and prayed to the Gods for the return of her husband. O But the war still broke out in mid-July!


Odysseus. O It was a time of myths and secrets. A time when gods lived among people, and people became heroes... O Ancient Greece. A country divided into warring kingdoms lusting for wealth, power and control. Here begins the path of the great warrior and tireless wanderer of the cunning Odysseus, king of Ithaca, without whom the outcome of the Trojan War might have been completely different. O A story of sophisticated political intrigue and brutal wars. O History of exploits and betrayals. O The story of loyalty and love, unparalleled courage and almost suicidal courage... O The story of a great man and his glorious time full of dangers!

    Mikhailovich


    Among the horrors of the earth and the horrors of the seas

    Wandering, in poverty, I searched for my Ithaca

    God-fearing sufferer Odysseus;

    With fearless feet he descended into the darkness of Hades;

    Charybdis of the furious, underwater Scylla moan

    They did not shake the high souls.

    It seemed that cruel fate had won with patience

    And he drank the cup of sorrow to the drop;

    It seemed that the heavens were tired of punishing him

    And they quietly drove home sleepily

    To the dear homeland of long-desired rocks,

    He woke up: so what? He did not recognize his homeland.

    L. Tolstoy
