Italian Synopsis The Odyssey
by Omero

Odysseus is a mythical hero wise intelligent strong and king of the little island of itaca. When his son is born Odysseus is requested to the kind Agamemnon to fight the war of Troy. After ten bloody years Odysseus develops a way to conquer the city of Troy (that was still resisting). He develops the idea of the Trojan horse the Greeks impersonated a retreat and the offering of a huge wooden horse as a tribute to the Trojans. Personally the horse was full of Greek soldiers who later tore apart the city of Troy and killed everything. Once victory is got Odysseus makes the mistake of insulting the sea god poseidon and for that he will pay. Odysseus wants to go home but poseidon controls the rute of the seas. In his voyage he will meet the cyclope polyfemous, the magician Circe, the nymph Calypso, the two beasts Scylla and Cariddi and the prince nausica. With the appeasement of Poseidon, Odysseus will reach his home (when his son is 20), but the is another problem, a group of princes is trying to steal his throne.

Dear Manfredi,

An excellent description of the Odyssey. However you should concentrate less on the Iliad and more on the Odyssey and perhaps improve the mechanics

Best regards

Dear Manfredi,
You have written a good synopsis but is it a summary of something we did in class or is it a summary of a book? Good job!!
