When Odysseus and his men arrive at Circe's island Aeaea, she offers them wine, and when they drink, she uses her wand to turn them into pigs. The article states, "Circe waves her wand, and the men transform into pigs. Since they are still aware of who they are, the men grunt and weep." (Bal). Circe is able to turn humans into undesirable animals through edible offerings and the wave of her wand. ]]> 2022-12-19 21:47:43 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2425220956 thnguyen203 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2425221012 In Greek mythology, Circe is a sorceress, daughter of Helios, the sun god, and daughter to Perse the ocean nymph. She has the ability to change humans into wolves, lions, and swine through drugs and incantation. When Odysseus travels to Aeaea, Circe's island, she transfrom him into a swine but he is protected. "The Greek hero Odysseus visited her island, Aeaea, with his companions, whom she changed into swine. But Odysseus, protected by the herb moly (a gift from Hermes), compelled her to restore them to their original shape" (Britannica).]]> 2022-12-19 21:47:52 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2425221012 nmtran107 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426002415 2022-12-20 17:19:41 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426002415 nmtran107 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426144789 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R17MB5DkVzA]]> 2022-12-20 20:27:04 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426144789 thnguyen203 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426150876 Britannica, The Editors of Encyclopaedia.

Once she stops messing around with Odysseus and his men, Circe becomes a quintessential host. Circe represents that you should take precautions when you become too comfortable. Circe also shows strong themes of feminism. Considering the sexism in the Odyssey, Circe rejects sexist stereotypes and focuses on self empowerment. In The Odyssey, she seduces the men shes attracted to and turns the others into animals.]]> 2022-12-20 20:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426150942 nmtran107 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426152080 2022-12-20 20:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426152080 thnguyen203 https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426152808 2022-12-20 20:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/thnguyen203/xl0byys01bvwigz8/wish/2426152808
