Eurylochus.
Poseidon disliked Odysseus because he thought that the might of man had accomplished the victory, placng man over the gods, when in fact, without poseidon and other gods, the war would have been impossible to win, and all of Odysseus's clever plans would have failed.'Man is nothing without the gods'Poseidon disliked Odysseus because Odysseus tricked and blinded his son and then dared Poseidon to do anything about it.
Because Zeus ordered her to release him by a message with Hermes. -------------------------------------- Athena (his patron goddess) asked Zeus to get Odysseus off the island. So Zeus sent Hermes to tell Calypso to let Odysseus free.

The suitors were challenged to string Odysseus' bow and then shoot an arrow through 12 axes. None of the suitors are able to accomplish this; the bow of Odysseus had never been strung by anyone besides him. An old man was able to accomplish it; however it was later revealed that the old man was Odysseus in disguise.
He warned not to eat Apollo's cattle.
Circe is a sorceress, she enchants Odysseus and turns men into pigs, although she doesn't do this to Odysseus (lucky man) she does it to his remaining soldiers. So it is the enchantment that keeps him on the island,
Odysseus is a man. You cannot be members of a man.
Zeus destroys Odysseus' ship in punishment for killing the sacred Cattle of Helios. Odysseus is the only man to survive the storm, washing up on Ogygia, where he is found by Calypso, who nurses him back to health.
None. They all were killed, but one man was left on the island of the cyclopes, who is mentioned in the Aeneid.
The song of the Sirens hypnotized his men into yearning to sail toward the island at which they resided luring them to their doom.
Basically, Homer is just a story teller who tell great stories like Odysseus. It was said that sirens have lovely voices but could lured whoever hear their voice to destruction. A mortal is said to be natural of being curious of almost anything, and Odysseus is no different. Odysseus is known to be a man of wit, so, when they are crossing the path where Sirens are, he didn't put an ear wax, instead he commanded his crew to strongly bind him on their post so that he wouldn't do anything that would lead him to his destruction. It was said, that only Odysseus is the man who lives and hears the sirens' song.
Odysseus' voyage is the story of a man, Odysseus that went to war. On his way back, he got lost, and went to an island inhabbited by a cyclops. Because cyclopses are the offspring of poseidon, he offended said god by stabbin the cyclopses eye out. Because of this, Poseidon stirred up the water, making it so Odysseus' journey would be very long and hard, for revenge.
Odysseus was called many epithets, including wise, loved of Zeus, man of pain, and man of exploits.
Odysseus is strong because he was the only man who could string the bow.
Ulysses (Odysseus) first impression of the cyclopes was that they were strong, feirce creatures. Odysseus was a very clever man and too clever for the cyclopes. I dont think that the cyclopes' way of life appeals to Odysseus because they arent very active. Think about it, they live on the same island all their lives while Odysseus is out on the open see trying to get back home to Ithica. no.............odysseus thinks they are disorganized and filthy creatures......and a bunch of other things
