Two instances that Odysseus demonstrates his greatest acts of heroism is when Polythemues traps them in the cave to eat later. He comes up with a plan to quickly to take down the cyclope. He ends up saving him and some of his people. This shows herism because he was calm in this situation and came up with a plan quickly. Another time that Odysseus demonstrates his act of heroism is when the enchantress turns his people into pigs. He may have been stuck there for over 7 years but he was able to keep his people alive.

Odysseus, the protagonist in the epic poem "The Odyssey", shows great acts of heroism throughout his journey to return to his home in Ithaca. A prime example of his heroism comes from the tenth book "Circe, the Grace of a Witch" where it says in the Synopsis, "Eurylochus tells Odysseus what has happened and begs him to sail away from Circe's island. Against his advice, however, Odysseus rushes to save his men from the enchantress." This example shows Odysseus' hero-like characteristics by telling of a time when he sacrificed safety to help out his men that were in grave danger. Another example of Odysseus' heroism comes from book twelve "The Sirens; Scylla and Charybdis" where the poem states, "Circe's bidding against arms had slipped my mind, so I tied on my cuirass and took up two heavy spears, then made my way along to the foredeck...and a deathly pity ran through me at that sight-far the worst I have ever suffered, questioning the passes of the strange sea." This quote shows two signs of heroism, firstly, Odysseus puts himself in a great deal of danger just to try and protect his men even after getting told not to do this act. This shows heroism because he put others safety before his own. Secondly, Odysseus shows hero-like characteristics when he feels pain for those who have lost. This empathy shows heroism because though there was nothing he could do, he grieved for the loss of his men and this was still while being in the midst of a dangerous situation.

Throught Odysseus' odyssey, he demonstrates acts of heroism. A hero is someone he is adored for their acts of bravery and courageous. Two of Odysseus' best acts of heroism from his trip back home are when Odysseus and his men are stuck in the the Cyclopes, Polythemus, and his dive into the underworld to get his prophet from Teiresias. The first notable act was when Odysseus was stuck in the cave of Polythemus and Odysseus tricked the Cycolps to get drunk and was able to stab Polythemus in the eye. Odysseus shows that he is couragous and brave enough to speak to the Cyclopes and tricking him. Odysseus also shows his intellect beacuse he knows if he killed the Cyclops that he would be stuck behind the boulder but instead he successfully snuck out all his men under the Cyclops' sheep. An example of Odyssues' intelligence is after the Cyclops drinks the wine, which is follwed by the Cyclops asking Odysseus for his name and Odysseus responds, "My name is Nohbdy: mother, father, and friends, everyone calls me Nohbdy'." so the Cyclops tells Odysseus his gift, "Nohbdy's my meat..." This shows how smart Odysseus was and how he hd a plan all along for how he was going to save his men. Another example of Odysseus' heroic acts iis in book 11, when Odysseus dives into the underworld to seak a prophecy from Teiresias. Odysseus was very bravy when going into the realm of the dead to seak knowledge and guidence on how to protect him and his men once they leave Circe's island. An example of this is was Odysseus' was first in the realm and he says, "I grew sick with frear. But presently I gave command to my officers..." Even though Odysseus was terrified of the underworld he knew that getting the prophecy would help protect his men. Overall, Odysseus has shown that he is heroic threw his courahous, brave, and intelligent characteristics. Odysseus will trick a huge Cyclops to help his men flee to from a hostage situation and he will go to the underworld and face his fears so that he can help prtect his men. These acts are heroic beacuse Odysseus is putting other's before himself and making sure he can protect his men on their trip back to Ithica.

As the story continues, Odysseus shows braves acts of heroism many time. There are two strongest acts of heroism from him. The first one is when he and a few of his strongest men face the Cyclopes. He heroically heads all his men in the right direction to brave against Polyphemus. He tricks the Cyclops by getting the Cyclops drunk enough to be confused and then forms a plan to stab him in the eye. He strongly leads his group to form a large wooden skewer to impale the Cyclops’s eye. Before that was done, he tells the Cyclops that his name is “Nohbdy” and eventually when the Cyclops yells for help and states that “Nohbdy has stabbed him.” It shows Odysseus’s smart and quick thinking which are food traits of a heroic leader. Another act that shows his heroism is when he demands Circe to turn his men back to normal, showing his bravery. He was very much aware of how much power she has but he didn’t let it stop him. This shows his courage, strength, and will to Rick for others all showing heroism.

Throughout his adventures, Odysseus continuously shows acts of heroism. The two greatest acts of heroism that Odysseus shows throughout his adventures are his encounter with Polythemus when him and his men are trapped in the cave, along with when he guided his men through the challenges of Syclla and Charybdis. Firstly, in book 9, Odysseus tricks Polyphemus by telling him that his name is "Nohbdy." He does this so that the Cyclopes would not be aware of his name. After Odysseus gets Polyphemus to drink the wine, the Cyclops said, "'Nohbdy, Nohbdy's tricked me, Nohbdy's ruined me.'" This shows Odysseus' quick thinking skills and determination to overcome the obstacles that the Cyclopes posed to them. Odysseus found himself along with his men in a dire situation that could risk the lives of everyone there. Odysseus was well aware that he needed to do something in order to mislead the Cyclops into gaining their freedom and being able to continue on their journey back to Ithaca. Another example that portrays Odysseus' heroism is when he leads his men to overcome Scylla and Charybdis. "Well, I walked up and down from bow to stern, trying to put heart into the stern, standing over every oarsman, saying gently, 'Friends, have we never been in danger before this? More fearsome, it is now, than when the Cyclops penned us in his cave? What power he had! Did I not keep my nerve, and use my wits to find a way out for us?'" This shows that Odysseus is determined to lead his men home to Ithaca and although he knows that they are stuck in a terrifying situation, he tries to stay calm and ease the minds of his men. Odysseus shows strong leadership and controls his men for them to have the best possible outcome, regardless of him knowing six of his men were going to perish. Overall, Odysseus demonstrates many great acts of heroism throughout his adventures, doing everything he can in his power to lead his men safely back to Ithaca.

Throughout the epic poem of "The Odyssey", Odysseus shows heroism many times. I believe a hero is someone who has courage and bravery to protect others. One example of Odysseus' heroism is in Book 9, where Odysseus and his crew encountered the Cyclops. He first tricks the Cyclops by making him drink liquid while also stabbing his eye with a sharp wooden log. Using more of his intelligence, when Cyclops asks for his name, he says, "My name is Nohbdy: mother, father, and friends, everyone calls me Nohbdy." Odysseus uses his intelligence and his cunning abilities to be a hero for him and his crew. Another instance where Odysseus demonstrates an act of heroism is when Eurylochus witnesses the men getting turned into pigs by Circe. Once Eurylochus reports this to Odysseus, Odysseus immediately rushes to go save his men. Eurylochus was filled with anger and sorrow, as the text says, "...blinding tears welled in his eyes; foreboding filled his heart." Odysseus turns Eurylochus' sorrow into courage and determination, as he hurries to try to save his men. Once Odysseus reaches Circe's island, Circe gives him a magic drink, which does not affect him. However, Odysseus uses his sword to threaten Circe. This shows the courage and valor Odysseus shows, like a hero. Although Circe turned his men into a trance, they soon got out of Circe's island, and into the Land of the Dead.

Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey," demonstrates his greatest acts of heroism in various instances throughout his long and strenuous journey. Two notable examples are his encounter with the Cyclops Polyphemus and his intervention to save his men from the enchantment of the Lotus Eaters. The first example is when Odysseus and his men are able to successfully escape the cave of the Cyclops by tricking the Cyclops into drinking a very strong liquor and then stabbing its eye with a wooden stake. This shows Odysseus’s intellect because he outsmarted the Cyclops. When the Cyclops asks for Odysseus’ name, Odysseus uses his critical thinking skills to fool the Cyclops. A quote to show this is “Cyclops, you ask my honorable name? Remember the gift you promised me and I shall tell you. My name is Nohbody: mother, father, and friends, everyone calls me Nohbody.” This shows how Odysseus was able to convince the Cyclops that his name was ‘Nohbody.’ Doing this benefits Odysseus because later, the Cyclops calls out for help and says, “Nohbody, Nohbody’s tricked me, Nohbody’s ruined me.” This results in none of the other Cyclopes aiding the Cyclops. The second example is Odysseus’ encounter with the Lotus-Eaters. Odysseus and his men are wandering at sea when they come across an island, which turns out to be the home of the Lotus-Eaters. It is said that “..but those who ate this honeyed plant, the Lotus, never cared to report, nor to return: they longed to stay forever, browsing on that native bloom, forgetful of their homeland.” This indicates that if you succumb to the temptations of eating the lotus, you will lose any urge to go back home which will want you to stay on the island forever. Odysseus then takes the lead and gets the three men whose minds have been controlled and ties them to the ship, making it very difficult for them to find their way back to the island. He also tells his other men to keep on rowing in order to get away from the island as soon as possible.

The first greatest act of heroism that Odysseus demonstrates is when he successfully escapes the cave of the Cyclops by tricking the Cyclops into drinking his liquor and piercing his eye out with a log. It not only shows his intelligence due to him tricking the Cyclops and successfully escaping the cave but also his determination and strength as he was able to strike the Cyclops with a huge log and also being able to hold onto the sheep for such a long time before he was out in the open. A quote in the text that shows his intelligence in this episode is "Cyclops, you ask my honorable name? Remember the gift you promised me, and I shall tell you.

My name is Nohbdy: mother, father, and friends,

everyone calls me Nohbdy.

And he said:

Nohbdy's my meat, then, after I eat his friends.

Others come first. There's a noble gift, now." This shows how Odysseus was able to trick the Cyclops into thinking his name was Nohbdy which later comes in use for Odysseus because when the Cyclops cries for help he says Nohbdy's hurting him so no one comes to help him. A quote from the text that shows Odysseus's strength is "I drew it from the coals and my four fellows gave me a hand, lugging it near the Cyclops as more than natural force nerved them; straight forward they sprinted, lifted it, and rammed it deep in his crater eye". This shows his heroism through his strength by being able to lift such a heavy log and pierce the Cyclops's eye. The second greatest act of heroism that Odysseus demonstrates is when he is able to control his whole crew before the attack of Scylla and Charybdis. A quote in the book that shows this is "Well, I walked up and down from bow to stern, trying to put heart into them, standing over every oarsman, saying gently, have we never been in danger before this? More fearsome, is it now, than when the Cyclops penned us in his cave? What power he had! Did I not keep my nerve..." This scene shows how Odysseus took control of his crew and was able to get them back on track with his persuasive talking skills. He shows heroism by remaining calm during a dangerous situation and helping his crew.

Throughout this story, Odysseus demonstrates many instances where he puts his team in danger but he also shows a great amount of constant heroism in many ways through this epic poem. In my opinion, a hero is somebody who saves whoever is in need of saving no matter what the cost. One instance of this is in Book 9: New Coasts and Poseidon's Son in "The Lotus Eaters" section. After ten years of wandering and attempting to find his way home, he makes his way to the island of the Lotus Eaters. As it is stated in this quote, "but those who ate this honeyed plant, the Lotus, never cared to report, nor to return." If you eat this tempting flower, you will be brainwashed of every hope of ever getting home and want to stay in this land forever. This is bad news for their mission as their whole goal has been to get home and now their team is having their dreams and goals erased from their minds which will destroy their mission. However this is where Odysseus jumps in and demonstrates what a true hero he really is, tying down his three men that's minds have been overtaken onto the ship and taking control of his men, advising them to not eat the flowers and row onward as quickly as possible, ultimately saving his men and his mission, which is as great a deed as any hero could ever complete. Odysseus next shows his great heroism in the next story of book one, "The Cyclops." In this story he and his men become trapped in a cave that is taken over by Cyclops' and do not know how to get out. However, Odysseus, demonstrating his great heroism and intellect, thinks quickly and gives the cyclops wine to make him drunk. He makes sure not to completely kill him as the Cyclops is the only one strong enough to move the boulder blocking the exit of the cave but stabs him in the eye to immobilize him partially. He then says "My name is Nohbody: mother, father, and friends, everyone calls me Nohbody." This really is genius as the Cyclops tells his friends that "nobody" is attacking him, eliminating other issues with them. But by using his intelligence, he gets them out of the cave to continue their journey which ultimately shows his lengthy amounts of heroism as he saves his crew yet again committing the greatest acts of heroism possible. This ultimately all shows how Odysseus is a hero and demonstrates this in every way throughout this story.

In my opinion, Odysseus demonstrated heroism when he tricked the Cyclops into drinking the wine and believing his name (Odysseus) was Nohbdy, which helped Odysseus and his men escape the Cyclops´ cave after blinding him. In lines 256-261 Odysseus states, ¨´Cyclops, try some wine. Here ´ s liquor to wash down your scraps of men. Taste it, and see the kind of drink we carried under our planks. I meant it for an offering if you would help us home. But you are mad, unbearable, a bloody monster! After this, will any other traveler come to see you?¨ Odysseus demonstrates heroism by doing this and the action as follows, putting stake through the Cyclops eye, because he is taking risks and using his intelligence to trick the Cyclops in hopes to use the most reasonable way to escape the cave without losing all of his men. I also think that Odysseus demonstrated heroism when he chose to disobey Eurylochus ´ plead to leave Circe ´ s island and decided to return to save his men from her. This demonstrates Odysseus´ heroism by showing that Odysseus is willing to go back and risk himself and delay his journey back to Ithaca to save his men from the enchantress. In the passage it is explained how Odysseus and his men were to stay on Circe´s island for one year until Odysseus begged Circe to let them go and she told Odysseus that he must travel to the land of the dead and hear a prophecy from Tiresisus until she would do so. This once again demonstrates Odysseus ´ heroism by showing the measures Odysseus will take to save his men from Circe and to be able to travel back to Ithaca.

An example of Odysseus' heroism is when he was brave enough to face Circe, who had turned his men into pigs, and was not afraid of any of her tricks to get his men back from the witch using a plant and information provided from Hermes. This, along with the time he saved 3 of his men from the Lotus flowers, is him being loyal to his promise of getting everyone home. He keeps up with this promise as he treks through the dangerous waters containing the Sirens, Scylla, and Charybdis. His men were afraid and did not know if they wanted to go through with this, but Odysseus said, "Friends, have we never been in danger before this? More fearsome is it now, than when the Cyclops penned us in his cave? What power he had! Did I not keep my nerve, and use my wits to find a way out for us?" This all shows how every time in the face of danger, Odysseus uses his intellect to figure out a way to conquer the obstacle to help he and his men get home.

Odysseus firstly demonstrates the greatest act of heroism when him and his men were firstly stuck with the Cyclops. Considering his role as a leader, he has control over this situation since the men are relying on whatever he commands them to do especially because they were scared unlike Odysseus who is ready to take on challenges. In this situation, Odysseus fooled the Cyclopes claiming his name was "Nobody" and managed to get the Cyclopes drunk because of the wine that was meant to be a peace offering and while the Cyclopes was asleep, they made their move and injured the Cyclopes. In this overall scene, Odysseus demonstrated heroism because he took the role very seriously and took action in this situation which displays heroism because overall if Odysseus was not there, his men would be unsure on what to do in this situation and Odysseus on the other hand although is ready to always dive into action and he willingly took a risk by talking to the Cyclopes and tricking him because overall, there is a chance that his tricks would not work. The second instance that Odysseus demonstrated heroism was when in Book 10, his men ran into the enchantress, Circe. "Odysseus rushes to save his men from the enchantress. On the way, he meets the god Hermes who gives him a magical plant called moly to protect him from Circe's power." From this first piece from the book, Odysseus obviously wants to save his men. Now, this displays heroism in various ways mostly that Odysseus was willing to go through certain obstacles specifically in a rush and actually take advice (which is usually something he does not do) just to save his men displays heroism. Later on as he arrived, Circe attempted to give him the magic potion which failed since it had no effect on him and he threatened to kill her which caused her to turn his men back to normal but in a trance. Now this also displays heroism since Circe could have done anything in that moment to go against Odysseus' threat towards her and him willing to sacrifice for his men is another one of the moments that he truly displayed heroism. Overall, Odysseus did display heroism in various ways mostly because of how he was willing to sacrifice especially for his men who were with him throughout this whole exploration.

In "The Odyssey", Odysseus showed many acts of heroism. One example of this is in Book 9 when he and his men got trapped in the Cyclops' cave and they were trapped because of a "ponderous slab". Odysseus and his men tried to approach the Cyclops but several of his men on two different occasions got eaten by the Cyclops. All hope was basically lost, until Odysseus did a very risky move and mixed some drinks to create a very powerful drink, which he then gave the Cyclops. The passage states, "...I went forward holding an ivy bowl of my dark drink, looking up, saying..". The drink got the Cyclops drunk and Odysseus and his crew were able to make an opportunity for them to escape the cave. This act of Odysseus was very heroic because he put his life on the line for his crew mates. Another example of Odysseus showing heroism is when he and his men after a series of misfortunes ended up on Aeaea the land of Circe the Witch. Odysseus split his men into two groups, one to stay on the ship, and one team to go out and explore the island. The expedition team stumbled across Circe who put a spell on them and their bodies and voices changed. The lone survivor of this trap reported back to Odysseus and then Odysseus rounded up his crew and he rushed to Circe to save his men. He knew this was very dangerous because of what happened to his men, but again he put his life on the line for his crew. These are two examples of how Odysseus showed heroism in "The Odyssey".

A way Odysseus demonstrates his acts of heroism is when he correctly instructed his men to help him still listen to the song but tie him to the boat and told them to put wax in their ears so they wouldn't hear the song. He told his crew to just row the boat so that they would all survive. The crew listened to him and he was able to listen to the song while being safe tied up to the boat.

Another way Odysseus how his heroism is when he instructed his crew to not eat the animals on the island. Even though his crew did end up eventually eating the animals this still shows that Odysseus is a good leader and really cared about his crew.

One piece of textual evidence that shows that Odysseus is a very heroic character in the poem is when Odysseus saves his men from the cave with the Cyclops. This part of the poem represents Odysseus's heroic actions because he had to think of a brilliant plan to save as many of his men as possible. He does this by getting the Cyclops so drunk that he falls asleep. While the cyclops was asleep he took a fiery wooden stake and drove it into his eye far enough so it wouldn't kill him. This is an act of heroism because he risked his life by driving a wooden stake into the Cyclop's eye while he was asleep to save the rest of his crew and help them get out safely.

Another piece of textual evidence that shows that Odysseus is very heroic is when Odysseus saves his men from staying on Lotus Island. This is a very heroic part of the story The Odyssey because he saves his men from the temptation of staying on the island instead of completing their journey of going home. An example in the text of this is," They long to stay... forgetful of their homeland." This evidence shows that Odysseus is very heroic because he resisted the temptation of his other crew members to eat the lotus flower and stay on the island forgetting the goal they originally had. He also saves the crew members who want to eat the Lotus flowers. This shows heroism because he again saved his crew members for them the accomplish their goal to return home.

Odysseus displays great heroism in many books, but in my opinion, Odysseus displays most heroism in book 9 with the Cyclops. I believe Odysseus displays most heroism with the Cyclops because when they first get trapped in the cave, Odysseus is already planning on a way to escape even though his men might have had the thought that it was gonna be impossible. Next, Odysseus figures out a plan and decided to put it into action knowing the possibility that his men and him would be in danger. His plan was to make the cyclops so drunk he passes out and then they kill him. He manages to have the confidence and patience to make the cyclops pass out from drunkeness, but then stabbed the cyclops in the eye because he realised if he killed the cyclops then they couldnt get out. Once they got out, he even lets the cyclops get his name so he could curse Odysseus (which wasnt the smartest idea but showed confidence and heroism by him being humble)

1. Odysseus' men except Eurylochus fall into Circes trap and are turned into pigs. Eurylochus tries to convince Odysseus to leave but he says no and rushes to to save them.

2. during their rush to get past scylla odysseus gives his nervous crew a speach. he says "have we never been in danger before now? More fearsome is it now, than when the cyclops penned us in the cave? Did i not keep my nerve and use my wits to find a way out for us? By hook or crook this peril shall be something that we remember." Regaining their confidence allowing them to pick up the pace and get past scylla.

One example of Odysseus displaying heroism is when he stated his name as "nobdy" when escaping from the cyclopes. By doing this, He tricked Polyphemus and all of the other cyclopes because he shouted that he had been stabbed in the eye by "nobody" and so there fore the other cyclopes just went back to doing their own thing and not notice that Odysseus and his men were escaping. Another act of heroism from Odysseus is when he did not inform his crew about Scylla and Charybdis. By doing this his men had no idea that at least six of them were going to die so they were not afraid to keep going forward. This allowed Odysseus and his remaining men to continue there journey home with only six more causalities.

I think that heroism is not only the quality of being strong and helpful, but being loyal and quick-thinking as well. Odysseus demonstrates these traits many times throughout the Odyssey, but they show the most during his two greatest acts, rescuing 3 of his men from the Lotus Eaters, and saving the men who had been transformed into pigs by Circe. I believe this because in both instances he could've left the men there and continued his journey home, but his commitment to bringing everyone back to Ithaca never wavered. When they landed on the island of the Lotus Eaters and those three men got hooked on the flower, Odysseus made sure they returned to the ship along with all the other men by tying them under their rowing benches. In another instance of heroism, Odysseus saves his men from living as Circe's pigs for the rest of their lives. In the text, "...Eurylochus came running to cry alarm, foul magic doomed his men! But working with dry lips to speak a word he could not, being so shaken: blinding tears welled in his eyes...", and Odysseus still rushes to his men's aid. Eurylochus, one of Odysseus' most trusted officers, had begged him to turn back and leave them, but Odysseus made sure to do his best in getting everyone home, even if it meant he had to put himself in danger.

# data[].attributes.body
One of Odysseus's greatest acts of heroism is when he defeats the cyclops in Book 9. He is able to escape by blinding the cyclops so that he can't see them escaping, but he leaves the cyclops alive so that they can escape when he lets his sheep out to graze. "...straight forward they sprinted, lifted it [the spike], and rammed it deep in his crater eye...the pierced ball hissed broiling, and the roots popped. ...the master stroked each ram, then let it pass, but my men riding on the pectoral fleece the giant's blind hands blundering never found." Not only does this show Odysseus's intelligence, it also shows his heroism, as he finds any way possible to spare himself and his men from the horrible fate that is to come if he doesn't save them.

Another example is when he gives his speech to rally his crew's spirits in book 12 after they are scared by Charybdis. "'Friends, have we never been in danger before this? More fearsome, is it now, than when the Cyclops penned us in his cave? What power he had! Did I not keep my nerve, and use my wits to find a way out for us? Now I say by hook or crook this peril too shall be something that we remember. Heads up, lads! We must obey the orders as I give them. Get the oarshafts in your hands, and lay back hard on your benches; hit these breaking seas. Zeus help us pull away before we founder. You at the tiller, listen, and take in all that I say - the rudders are your duty; keep her out of the combers and the smoke; steer for that headland; watch the drift, or we fetch up in the smother, and you drown us.' That was all, and it brought them round to action." His bravery was able to inspire the crew to continue on, despite the difficulty and the danger. He mentions his past heroics, and declares that he will get them through this, too; this confidence and bravery, along with the fact that he is able to see this promise through, is the mark of a hero.

One example of Odysseus' greatest acts of heroism is when he tricked the Cyclops. He didn't let his hubris or pride get ahead of him and kill the Cyclops. Instead, he was smart and stabbed his eye so he would be blind and they could eventually escape the cave. This is a great act of heroism because he saved himself and the rest of his men by doing the logical thing. Another example of his heroism is when his men all get scared after they hear Scylla. He inspires all of them to get back in their wit and follow his orders, so they can survive. In the text it said, "I walked up and down from bow to stern, trying to put heart into them, standing over every oarsman, saying gently, 'Friends, have we never been in danger before this? More fearsome, is it now, than when the Cyclops had penned us in his cave? What power he had! Did I not keep my nerve, and use my wits to find a way out for us? Now I say, by hook or crook this peril too shall be something that we remember'... That was all, and it brought them round to action." This is a great act of heroism because all his men were scared, but he proves himself as a leader by stepping up and inspiring them all to make sure they all survive.
