Odysseus was saved by Calypso when he washed on her island. They become lovers, and sleep together for seven years. However, Odysseus yearns to return home. Calypso offers Odysseus eternal life and youth if would stay with her on her island, but Odysseus declines, longing for his wife Penelope and his home of Ithaca.
Calypso was a nymph in Greek mythology who trapped Odysseus on her island Ogygia for seven years. She fell in love with him and offered him immortality if he stayed with her, but he ultimately chose to leave and continue his journey back home to Ithaca.
Calypso does not help Odysseus; she goes against Zeus' will by holding captive him there on her island. Yes, they are lovers, but he is not happy there. She actually holds him captive there for seven years, and that by far is going against Zeus' hospitality rule.
yes she was but it was only briefly Odysseus was greedy and calypso thought otherwise.....
She was because she was cursed by Zeus to fall in love with any and every man that came upon her island, but the second part of the curse was that the men would always have to leave whether they wanted to or not. This meant Calypso's heart was always being broken.
Calypso is a nymph who concealed Odysseus for a year in her cave and made love to him.
