No, Odysseus did not tell Eumaeus the same tale about his past that he shared with Alcinous and Arete. While he provided a version of his story to Eumaeus, he was more cautious and less detailed, as he needed to gauge Eumaeus's loyalty and support. In contrast, his account to Alcinous and Arete was more elaborate and formal, aimed at receiving hospitality and assistance. This reflects Odysseus's strategic thinking in revealing different aspects of his identity to different audiences.
