Calypso saved Ulysses out of love and desire to keep him with her. She was captivated by his charm and heroism, offering him immortality and a life of comfort on her island, Ogygia. However, her actions were also influenced by the gods, particularly Hermes, who ultimately compelled her to release Ulysses, allowing him to continue his journey home to Ithaca. This interplay of love, divine intervention, and the longing for home highlights the complex dynamics of human and divine relationships in the narrative.
