To leave Calypso's island, Odysseus must first persuade the nymph Calypso to let him go, as she has kept him captive and desires to make him her immortal husband. After being instructed by the god Hermes, who delivers a message from Zeus, Calypso ultimately agrees to help Odysseus build a ship and provides him with provisions for his journey. This act of liberation emphasizes the theme of yearning for freedom and the struggle against divine forces.
