In Greek mythology, the Trojan War was waged against the city of Troy by the Achaeans (Greeks) after Paris of Troy took Helen from her husband Menelaus, king of Sparta. The war is one of the most important events in Greek mythology and has been narrated through many works of Greek literature, most notably Homer's Iliad.
Mostly from Edith Hamilton's account of The Odyssey, this slide shows the summary of Odysseus' adventures plus his pre-adventure stories after the Fall of Troy.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. The OdysseyCharacters By Homer The epic story of a journey — Symbolic of our journey through life. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
2. TheProtagonist and his human allies The “Good Guys” in the story 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
3. Odysseus The protagonist of the Odyssey. Odysseus fought among the other Greek heroes at Troy and now struggles to return to his kingdom in Ithaca. Odysseus is the husband of Queen Penelope and the father of Prince Telemachus. Though a strong and courageous warrior, he is most renowned for his cunning. He is a favorite of the goddess Athena, who often sends him divine aid, but a bitter enemy of Poseidon, who frustrates his journey at every turn. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
4. Telemachus Odysseus’s son. An infant when Odysseus left for Troy, Telemachus is about twenty at the beginning of the story. He is a natural obstacle to the suitors desperately courting his mother, but despite his courage and good heart, he initially lacks the poise and confidence to oppose them. His maturation, especially during his trip to Pylos and Sparta in Books 3 and 4, provides a subplot to the epic. Athena often assists him. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
5. Penelope Wife of Odysseus and mother of Telemachus. Penelope spends her days in the palace pining for the husband who left for Troy twenty years earlier and never returned. Homer portrays her as some-times flighty and excitable but also clever and steadfastly true to her husband. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
6. Eumaeus The loyal shepherd who, along with the cowherd Philoetius, helps Odysseus reclaim his throneafter his return to Ithaca. Even though he does not know that the vagabond who appears at his hut is Odysseus, Eumaeus gives the man food and shelter. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
7. Eurycleia The aged and loyal servant who nursed Telemachus when he was a baby. Eurycleia has been with the family since the beginning. She is well informed about palace intrigues and serves as confidante to her master. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
8. The Gods Greek gods who help — and the one who hinder — the Protagonist (Odysseus) on his epic Journey 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
9. Zeus King of gods and men, who mediates the disputes of the gods on Mount Olympus. Zeus is occasionally depicted as weighing men’s fates in his scales. He sometimes helps Odysseus or permits Athena to do the same. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
10. Athena Daughter of Zeus and goddess of wisdom, purposeful battle, and the womanly arts. Athena assists Odysseus and Telemachus with divine powers throughout the epic, and she speaks up for them in the councils of the gods on Mount Olympus. She often appears in disguise as Mentor, an old friend of Odysseus. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
11. Poseidon God of the sea.As the suitors (they guys who tear up his home and try to steal his wife while he is away) are Odysseus’s mortal antagonists, Poseidon is his divine antagonist. He despises Odysseus for claiming he needed no help from the gods to win the Trojan war. He also hates him for blinding his son, the Cyclops Polyphemus, and constantly hampers his journey home. Ironically, Poseidon is the patron of the seafaring Phaeacians, who ultimately help to return Odysseus to Ithaca. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
13. Antinous The most arrogant of Penelope’s suitors.Antinous leads the campaign to have Telemachus killed. Unlike the other suitors, he is never portrayed sympathetically (as if he has any qualities of human decency at all), and he is the first to die when Odysseus returns. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
14. Eurymachus A manipulative, deceitful suitor.Eurymachus is the guy who talked really sweet to Penelope but ratted on her when he went to her room and found out she was trying not to finish the tapestry any time soon. He’s also the guy who was always speaking up and getting the other suitors to do whatever he wanted them to do. His charisma and duplicity (self-interested double-talk) allow him to exert some influence over the other suitors. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
15. Other characters “Good Guys” Helpful people and gods you’ll need to keep in mind. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
16. Other allies — AKA “Good Guys” There are other “Good Guys” who helped either Odysseus or Telemachus to bring the story to a righteous ending — like King Menelaus of Sparta, who received Telemachus, but told him (mistakenly) that Odysseus was dead. And Hermes (the messenger god) was kind of helpful in delivering messages from Zeus to Odysseus and Calypso. But they’re the only ones I’m going to mention here, so you won’t be held responsible for knowing any of the rest of them on any tests. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
17. Mythological Dangers worth remembering Archetypal/Mythical dangers you’ll need to keep in mind. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
18. Kharybdis In The Odyssey, Kharybdis (also spelled Charybdis) was experienced by Odysseus as a powerful whirlpool, located opposite Scylla (the sea multi-headed sea monster) on either side of a smooth, easy-sailing water through the middle of a narrow sea passage. Sail too close to Kharybdis and your boat will be sucked in. Everyone aboard will die at the bottom of the sea. Kharybdis is way too cool not to remember. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
19. Scylla Scylla was a terror, located opposite Kharybdis on either side of a narrow strait of smooth, easy-sailing water through the middle of a passage. She was a monster rooted to a rock in the sea. She regularly ate sailors who passed by too closely. She was described by Homer in The Odyssey as having six heads perched on long (snakey) necks with twelve feet. Remember that, in the video, Odysseus directed his boat beyond the middle (smooth-sailing route) — too far away from Kharybdis, too close to Scylla. She ate most of Odysseus’s crew and the whole boat when they went over the waterfall? Scylla is way too cool not to remember. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
20. The OdysseyCharacters These are not all the characters in the story, But they’re all you need to remember for upcoming quizzes and tests. 4/10/10 NMHS English 1, Charles Coursey
