In the Odyssey, Calypso is a nymph who jailed Odysseus for seven years on her island. Although Odysseus longed for his wife, Penelope, Calypso forcefully kept him captive on the island because of her undying love for him. Her love for him was so much, she offered immortality to him to stay with her forever. Odysseus refused and wished to be reunited with his wife. Despite his refusals towards her offers, Calypso continued to seduce Odysseus until they were lovers. ]]> 2022-12-19 19:45:21 UTC https://padlet.com/eqtran104/98jrxptxo5ysni4w/wish/2425154679 lmqureshi100 https://padlet.com/eqtran104/98jrxptxo5ysni4w/wish/2426035159 Greenberg, ByMike. “Calypso: The Nymph Who Loved Odysseus.” MythologySource, 6 Apr. 2021, https://mythologysource.com/calypso-greek-nymph/.

She uses her seductive power, to hold Odysseus captive for seven years in the hope of marrying him. She even strained Odysseus to sleep with her. Forced to be her lover against his own will, Calypso bargained to give him eternal youth to spend the rest of his life with her. Though her seductive side is terrible, she still helps Odysseus leave the island by building him a boat and giving him materials to get through his trip. In the book she states, "My every impulse bends to what is right. Not iron, trust me, the heart within my breast. I am all compassion." She says that it's the compassion in her heart to let Odysseus go but she still hopes Odysseus changes his mind about her.]]> 2022-12-20 17:58:42 UTC https://padlet.com/eqtran104/98jrxptxo5ysni4w/wish/2426035246 lmqureshi100 https://padlet.com/eqtran104/98jrxptxo5ysni4w/wish/2426035551 A goddess of the mythical island of Ogygia; Calypso was known as the seductive nymph who sought to win over Odysseus's love and kept him captured for seven years. Although her family origin is unclear, two possible theories were made. Some say she is the child of Oceanus and Tethy, while Greek poets claim that she is the daughter of Atlas and Pleione. "My every impulse bends to what is right.
