The Odyssey by Homer5/11/2023 The poem focuses on the Greek hero Odysseus ( or Ulysses, as he was known in Roman myths) and his long journey home to Ithaca following the fall of Troy. It is widely recognized as one of the great stories of all time, and has been a strong influence on later European, especially Renaissance, literature. It was probably composed near the end of the 8th Century BCE and is, in part, a sequel to “The Iliad”. “The Odyssey” (Gr: “Odysseia”) is the second of the two epic poems attributed to the ancient Greek poet Homer (the first being “The Iliad”), and usually considered the second extant work of Western literature.
