The Odyssey Summary
|
The Odyssey and the Bible together represent the foundation of Western literature, thought, and spirituality -- the essense of culture in the broadest sense. The Odyssey is universally recognized as the definitive narrative of human struggle and survival -- one of the world's greatest adventure stories. We find ourselves to be the people in this work, contrasting the moralistic sense that we take from the New Testament. We can see our western consciousness represented by the hubris of Odysseus. The trials of Odysseus are only too similar to the trials that our world still faces today. |
