Odysseus encounters this creature twice in The Odyssey, narrowly escaping her both times. The first time is when Odysseus and his crew must go through a narrow strait that lyes between the narrow path between the two lairs of the monsters Charybdis and Scylla. From the advice of Circe, Odysseus decides to encounter Scylla instead of Charybdis in order to survive. This is not the last time Odysseus encounters this strait though; when Zeus destroys his crew's ship, Odysseus is able to survive on a small raft. This small raft takes him to Charybdis's lair. Here is able to narrowly escape by hanging onto a fig tree, and retrieves his raft from Charybdis when she "belched out the water" again.]]> 2022-12-19 21:35:51 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2425216086 eready100 https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2425216248 Clark, Clark. “Charybdis in the Odyssey: Odysseus' Ordeal in His Journey to Return Home.” Ancient Literature, Classic Literature, 2 Sept. 2022, https://ancient-literature.com/charybdis-in-the-odyssey/.

It would push water three times a day, with a force that could sink ships. It also gave expression of dangers when traveling on water and being stuck in unpleasant situations. Like the struggle of facing Charybdis, it also displays the courage to risk everything that is close to us.]]> 2022-12-19 21:38:49 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2425217378 kduong109 https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2425221254 It is said that Charybidis is a sea monster that once lived inside a rock. Every day, Charybidis swallows large amounts of water, then belching it out to create large whirlpools which could create damage to ships. There was a tale that said, Charybdis stole land from Zeus which got him upset so Zeus chained Charybdis to a sea-bed. "Charybdis was then cursed by the god and transformed into a hideous bladder of a monster, with flippers for arms and legs, and an uncontrollable thirst for the sea". Charybdis was once a pretty girl, until she disobeyed Zeus and got turned into a hideous sea monster. Now, Charybdis feeds into the ocean and uses the water to create damage to her enemies. Another tale was she stole cattle from Hercules so he struck lightning on her into the ocean, and now she is stuck in the ocean. ]]> 2022-12-19 21:48:26 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2425221254 emhuynh102 https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426150302 2022-12-20 20:38:08 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426150302 emhuynh102 https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426150940 2022-12-20 20:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426150940 kduong109 https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426153671 2022-12-20 20:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/eready100/c7pc8gprgaqtn9ou/wish/2426153671
