As you read more of THE ODYSSEY,I think you'll detect other reasons as well.Balgleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06298088627497312968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414075573242640505.post-61989728613850809672011-03-16T20:09:51.274-07:002011-03-16T20:09:51.274-07:00well as i have found out the epithet is a realy bi...well as i have found out the epithet is a realy big part for this play or literary work, i think that his is because Homer didn't want to be repetitive.vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14166831778133080270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414075573242640505.post-3324681610845252712011-03-16T10:30:02.273-07:002011-03-16T10:30:02.273-07:00Also!

I forgot to add that in this book, the word "Stranger" is constantly brought up, which struck out to me in proving my point that Telemachus is easily persuaded, well for a prince at least.Raymond Camachohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179902902081963200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414075573242640505.post-28118484503798697992011-03-16T10:28:39.877-07:002011-03-16T10:28:39.877-07:00From what I have read, I beleive that Telemachus h...From what I have read, I beleive that Telemachus has the epithet of being peptimistic, and being easily persuaded by Athena. Telemachus seemed to disbelieve what his parents told him about his lineage (being the son of Odysseus), yet as unsure of what he said, he was sure enough to believe Athena when she informed him that Odysseus was alive. This is very strange to me because Athena was disguised as Mentes, the ruler of Taphian. This is stranger to me that Mentes is a stranger to Telemachus, yet Telemachus was so easily inspired and persuaded in believing that his father is alive.Raymond Camachohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179902902081963200noreply@blogger.com
