Carol Dougherty argues that the resourcefulness of Odysseus as an adventurer on perilous seas served as an example to Homer's society which also had to adjust in inventive ways to turbulent conditions. The fantastic adventures of Odysseus act as a prism for the experiences of Homer's own listeners--traders, seafarers, storytellers, soldiers--and give us a glimpse into their own world of hopes and fears, 500 years after the Iliadic events were supposed to have happened. 606 $aEpic poetry, Greek$xHistory and criticism 606 $aOdysseus (Greek mythology) in literature 606 $aTrojan War$xLiterature and the war 606 $aGeography, Ancient, in literature 606 $aEthnic groups in literature 606 $aOcean travel in literature 606 $aEthnology in literature 606 $aCommerce in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEpic poetry, Greek$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aOdysseus (Greek mythology) in literature. 615 0$aTrojan War$xLiterature and the war. 615 0$aGeography, Ancient, in literature. 615 0$aEthnic groups in literature. 615 0$aOcean travel in literature. 615 0$aEthnology in literature. 615 0$aCommerce in literature. 676 $a883.01 676 $a883/.01 700 $aDougherty$b Carol$0156767 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458653903321 996 $aThe raft of Odysseus$92240311 997 $aUNINA
