The other Cyclops ignore Polyphemus' cries for help, thinking that he is just playing a trick. They do not come to his aid, assuming that he is fine.
Odysseus cunningly told the cyclops, Polyphemus, that he was named "Nobody". As a result, when Polyphemus was screaming in horrible pain after Odysseus (Nobody) stabbed him with a stake in the eye, the neighboring cyclopes yelled to Polyphemus to see if he needed help. Polyphemus responded that Nobody was attacking him.
Polyphemus cries out "Nohbdy, Nohbdy, tricked me, Nohbdy has blinded me!" This is a part of Odysseus' clever plan to escape from the cyclops. Polyphemus' scream leads the other cyclopes to believe that nobody harmed him, allowing Odysseus and his crew to escape unnoticed.
Polyphemus is a famous cyclops from Homers "Odyssey", but i have no idea what the other cyclops could be :)
In Homer's "Odyssey," Odysseus is insulted by the Cyclops Polyphemus when he asks for his name and Odysseus cleverly responds with the false name "Nobody." When Odysseus and his men blind Polyphemus and he cries out for help, the other Cyclopes assume that "Nobody" is hurting him, leading Polyphemus to feel humiliated and insulted.
Gets him drunkOdysseus gets Polyphemus drunk on wine, so much so that Polyphemus falls into a deep sleep.Pokes out his eyeWhen Polyphemus has fallen asleep, Odysseus and his men grab a large burning log, and wrap leather around the end. They thrust the burning log into the Cyclops Polyphemus' eye, at the same time pulling the leather around the log so that the flaming log burrows like a screw into his eye. This blinds Polyphemus and causes him to bleed profusely.Makes him look like a foolOdysseus earlier tricks Polyphemus by saying his name is No Man, or Nobody. After having his eye gouged, Polyphemus cries out for help saying "Nobody is hurting me!", making the other Cyclops laugh at Polyphemus' ridiculousness.Taunts himAs Odysseus and his crew are escaping, Odysseus taunts Polyphemus, revealing his true name.
Cyclops were a race not an individual. In Homer's Odyssey, the hero Odysseus encounters the Cyclops Polyphemus, the son of Poseidon and Thoosa (a nereid), The other Cyclopses were offspring of Gaia.
they stayed quit
He tells them that "Nobody" has hurt him.
The other Cyclopes assume that nothing/nobody is the source of pain.
Polyphemus(the cyclops) did not provide his guests with xenia or in other words hospitality and back in homeric society this was direct defiance towards the gods.
When Odysseus introduced himself as "No Man," he cunningly deceived Polyphemus, the Cyclops. By doing so, Odysseus made it difficult for Polyphemus to identify him later when seeking vengeance. As a result, when Odysseus and his men blinded the Cyclops and escaped, Polyphemus couldn't call out a specific name for help, allowing Odysseus to continue on his journey without immediate retribution.
The other Cyclopes assume that nothing/nobody is the source of pain.
