The apple was given to the most fairest of them all. The prince of Troy named Paris, had to decide who deserved the golden apple. He then chose aprhodite. Aprohdite told paris he can have the most beautiful woman in the world to himself. Since paris took Helen anyways he started or waged a war against all the Greeks.]]> 2017-05-16 15:38:24 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172124037 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172144428 The great hero Ulysses and his men have been longing to be at home after 10 years at war. They wanted to arrive to Ithica, Ulysses and his men began their journey to Ithica with 150 men in his ship after the disasterous Trojan war.]]> 2017-05-16 16:51:02 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172144428 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172186901 Ulysses and his crew arrived to the island and started to break into people's home. Savage from the previous war,Ulysses' men want to attack. Ulysses does not want to risk spoiling their good luck by stopping. Eurylochus convinces Ulysses that the village is a gift from the gods, and Ulysses concedes. At Ulysses' command, the Hellenes land and the townspeople, the Ciconians, flee. Ulysses commands his men to take no slaves. The Hellenes sacrifice ten bulls to the gods. They feast and loot the village. The Ciconians gather in the hills and attack the Hellenes. The sentries warn the crew, causing the Hellenes to retreat to their ships. Ulysses shoots the Ciconian's horses to disable them from following, but six Hellenes from each ship are killed.]]> 2017-05-16 19:32:52 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172186901 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172388692 Ulysses- demonstrated that he is extremely boastful. He didn't inform Polyphemus his name at first, but he did say his name when he and his men were escaping the cave because he was feeling proud. Now Polyphemus knew his name, and when he cursed on him, Polyphemus father (Poseidon) knew who he was and set out for vengeance. ]]> 2017-05-17 16:53:17 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172388692 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172983862 Aeolus - helpful and trustworthy, this is shown when Aeolus gives Ulysses a bag of wind that would change the direction of his ships if he opened it. So that Poseidon wouldn't keep him off course. He is also trustworthy because he warns Ulysses of what could happen if someone else opened the bag of wind and not Ulysses. ]]> 2017-05-21 14:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172983862 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172984639 Ulysses- incautious and unaware,   After sending a man up to keep lookout and see if there was anyone else on the island, the man does not return. So, Ulysses sends a second man up. Again, the man does not return. After sending three men up with none of them coming down, Ulysses decides that he needs to go up for himself. After going halfway up, Ulysses discovers that what he is climbing up is not a tree, but actually a large giant. When he and the crew try and run back the shore, the large giants chase Ulysses and crush two ships, killing two thirds of Ulysses' men. This shows that Ulysses didn't take careful precautions and wasn't aware of the giant. In result he lost two thirds of his men and lost two ships.]]> 2017-05-21 14:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172984639 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172986670 Lyric: I bet if I give all my love
Then nothing's gonna tear us apart        

Commentary: Circe suggests a choice to Ulysses to be immortal with Circe forever and also suggests that all his crew members become animals so there wouldn't be anything between them. ]]> 2017-05-21 15:15:59 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172986670 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/172998772  In this chapter Elpenor demonstrated he is kindhearted because he aided Ulysses by telling him advice and warning him about dangers he will face even though he died because Ulysses sent him up to the mast. Elpenor also stayed faithful to Ulysses, and he helped him, instead of accusing Ulysses of wanting him  to die like the rest of the crew.

He withstood the smell of the flower and the almost unbearable desire to eat it. That took a lot of strength and discipline to control his nerves. Ulysses also carried every man back to the ship. He also had to resist the smell and at the same time use a lot of strength or force to carry his men. ]]> 2017-05-22 23:44:40 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173263925 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173279601 Character Trait: In this chapter, Nausicaa's father demonstrates how kind and warm-hearted he is because he helped Ulysses sail back home even though the oracle had warned him about Ulysses. ]]> 2017-05-23 02:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173279601 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280062 Character Trait: In this chapter, Ulysses illustrates he is very intelligent because he saw that the rocks were not going to let him sail south and his only choice was to sail north. Ulysses wanted to go against the rocks because he didn't want to go through the south because that is the path towards the Sirens, but he had to make the right choice. ]]> 2017-05-23 02:14:20 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280062 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280458 Character Trait: In this chapter, Ino indicated how vengeful and determined to get even with someone she is because she was willing to give up her most prized possession, her green veil, to a total stranger just so she could get revenge on Poseidon. She didn't help Ulysses out of the kindness of her heart; she helped him because she knew it would make Poseidon angry. Ino is very determined to  get revenge no matter what she has to do because she didn't know if Ulysses was a trustworthy man that would return the veil, but she gave it to him anyways to get retaliation]]> 2017-05-23 02:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280458 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280639 Character Trait: In this chapter, Eurylochus revealed how selfish, ungrateful, and disloyal he is because it was his idea at the start to eat the cattle even when Ulysses warned them not to. His excuse was that if they died at least they would have one last sufficient meal. Then on top of everything he lied to Ulysses and tricked him by saying that they had eaten stags and not cattle. This quickly emphasizes how disloyal he is because he didn't follow what Ulysses told him and because of that he caused all the men their lives. He is ungrateful because Ulysses has done everything to make sure the men also get home safely and he has been through so much chaos, but he still went behind his back and betrayed him.]]> 2017-05-23 02:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280639 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280745 Character Trait: Ulysses showed his inner strength and ability to keep going and keep fighting because he was devastated when Scylla killed six of his men, but he knew that there was nothing he could do to possibly aid them. He wanted to help them, but he knew it was too late and he needed to save the men he had left and keep sailing. He had to be strong and escape even though the loss of his six men was tearing him apart. ]]> 2017-05-23 02:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280745 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280852 Character Trait: In this chapter Ulysses's men illustrated they are loyal and committed towards Ulysses because they made sure that Ulysses did not get off the ship and become one more meal for the Sirens, even though many of them thought he had wanted Elpenor to die and thought he was selfish. They could have easily let him break away from the mast and give himself to the Sirens, but they didn't. ]]> 2017-05-23 02:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173280852 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173285089 ''I need you and I miss you
This accurately describes Penelope's emotions because she misses him with all her heart and with every atom of strength in her body. It has been twenty years since she has seen him, and her heart is on the verge of breaking completely, but she still has a little bit of hope left. Penelope longs for his love and to see him again. ]]> 2017-05-23 02:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173285089 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173285719

Calypso let Ulysses go because Hermes persuaded her, and she knew he had to return back home, but she was still very much in love with him. When she decided to let him go she said, "Never another like him". This reveals that her love for Ulysses will continue to go on forever, and she will never love a man the way she loved him. ]]> 2017-05-23 03:01:41 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/173285719 arrastiabrian https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/174541724 2017-05-31 03:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/arrastiabrian/yutzf7wzl3ma/wish/174541724
