Odysseus is the hero of “The Odyssey,” the Homeric epic of the 8th century BC, and he also plays an important role in Homer's “Iliad.” A cool-headed, rational, wily fellow -- short, burly, barrel-chested -- Odysseus stands out among his tall, handsome, hot-tempered comrades-in-arms in the Trojan War.
A diplomat, a strategist, a politician, a manipulator: The original Odysseus strikes us as a modern man among his archaic contemporaries. When King Agamemnon's men were rounding up the other Greeks to wage war against Troy, Odysseus feigned insanity to get out of it. His ruse, alas, was discovered, and he had to leave his island home of Ithaca, his wife, Penelope, and their infant son, Telemachus, for a war that lasted 10 years, ending in a rather dubious victory for the Greeks and the tragic destruction of Troy.
It was also Odysseus who finally helped win that war by devising the sneaky strategy of the Trojan horse, which enabled the Greeks to breach the walls of Troy. But his real story, the one that inspired Tennyson and Joyce, is contained in “The Odyssey,” which relates his strange adventures in the 10 years after the war as he voyaged around the Mediterranean trying to get home.
