Odysseus Vs Cyclops

The massive Cyclops name is Polyphemus. He is one of the many children of Poseidon. He lives in a cave on an island with other Cyclops. He has a lot of sheep, goats, cattle. There was a Prophecy that one day a man named Odysseus would one day blind Polyphemus.

The man that blinded Polyphemus was Odysseus. He was born on Itaca. He was a king son of Laertes. He fought in the battle of Troy and traveled across the sea on epic journeys. In the end he stayed home and chose peace.

In the story Odysseus and his men set up a campsite on a new island. On the Island there was an abandoned cave. They found cheese and lamb in the cave. They crewmates wanted to steal and leave with the cheese. But Odysseus wanted to meet the owner of the cave.

When the owner of the cave came back Odysseus and his men were trapped in a cave with a Cyclops. When the Cyclops saw the men in his cave he started eating the men. Then Odysseus got the cyclops drunk and blinded him when he fell to sleep. Then when the Cyclops woke up to the pain of his eye being stabbed he opened the cave door. Then Odysseus and his men hid under the sheep so they can pass by the Cyclops without him knowing.

The Mysterious Witch

The name of the mysterious witch is Circe. She is actually the goddess nature. She is the daughter of Helios the sun God and Perse the ocean nymph. Circe lives in a house in the woods with a lot of animals. She helps and takes care of the animals that live in the woods.

Circe thinks that all men are pigs, so when men come onto her land she turns them into pigs. But she has had three lovers and one of them was Odysseus. Odysseus stayed on the island with Circe as her lover for one year before he continued his Journey. They had three kids named Telegonus, Agrius, and Latinus. Circe plays a smaller part in few other myths: she purifies Jason and Medea from a murder, and she transforms PIcus and Scylla into a woodpecker and monster respectively.

He would one day be the one who would blind Polyphemus

Grammar

by: nita twenty thousand leagues under the sea some time ago, i decided to read twenty thousand leagues under the sea, by jules verne. i figured that because it was so well known it must be an extremely interesting book. in addition, it was science fiction, the one area that i was always interested. my assumption was only partially correct, for i only was to a degree interested in the piece of writing. when jules verne was writing this book, he must have been reading some incredibly dull science book the day before, for that was what the book was written as.  

the style of writing was utterly against my tastes, and though the plot was moderately interesting, the style of writing really ruined it. often, the author will trail off describing some marine animal for pages at a time. two entire chapters were almost entirely this! however, the setting and characters of the story seemed to be well thought out. nevertheless, 20,000 leagues under the sea was an extremely tedious volume. when the story was introduced, jules verne described m. aronnax, the main character, whose love for marine biology was more important than anything else to him did.  

this immediately led to the international crisis about a bizarre aquatic creature, which immediately dragged m. aronnax into the action. due to his expertise on the matter, the public expected pierre to be the one to solve this mystery. m. aronnax, under all this pressure, concluded that the animal was to be called the narwhale. at first, the matter was taken lightly, and only expert scientists were involved. however, when this animal began to become a threat to all ships in the water, the military took the issue into its own hands.  

it promptly fitted a frigate, the abraham lincoln, to destroy the beast, and invited pierre to join them, for his science capabilities. for many months they searched, but could not find this narwhale anywhere. when they found it, it attacked the ship, disabling it, and sending m. aronnax, ned land (a harpooner) and conseil (servant of pierre) overboard. soon, the three were guests in the narwhale, now known to be a ship, the nautilus, commanded by captain nemo. during the stay aboard the nautilus, pierre conseil and ned encounter and discover many wonderful and interesting facts from the sea. often, they would accompany the captain in an under water expedition.  

several of these excursions were to hunt, and others were simply to explore a submarine region. one of the times when the purpose was just to investigate an underwater region, captain nemo and m. aronnax explored the lost city of atlantis. on a separate occasion, pierre found that there was a supply of coal underwater that the nautilus used as a source of fuel. in addition to underwater excursions, the nautilus itself was on a round the world journey, which accounted for the most exiting time of the book. this was when captain nemo was attempting to access the south pole.  

that meant passing the great ice barrier, and surviving with very little air. during this rather long voyage, the submarine gets wedged between two icebergs, and is almost crushed! to add to this, the inhabitants of the nautilus almost die of suffocation from the lack of air. finally, at the end of the book, the three friends narrowly escape that nautilus.  

this all occurs during the maelstrom, which is a deadly storm, which makes the escape so daring. at the end, the three friends end up in a fisherman's shack, not knowing how they arrived, for they were knocked unconscious. that is how the events in the story twenty thousand leagues under the sea took place. the main character in this book was an extremely well recognized marine biologist named m. pierre aronnax. m. aronnax is one who gets the most benefit throughout the course of the book. pierre was always curious, which often got in the way of following his instincts and good judgment.  

also, he sometimes talked to himself! in addition, his faithful servant, conseil, follows his master during all of his adventures. conseil never really said much, and the role he played was one of a calm and humble person. another character of importance was ned land, the most well known harpooner of all his time. this man proved himself to be very useful when the threesome attempt to escape the nautilus. on the other hand, ned land was always quick tempered, and free willed.  

these qualities almost got many people killed many times during the book. the next most important character and perhaps the most outlandish one of all was captain nemo. note that this was not his real name, however, the actual name was never given in the book. captain nemo was forever strict and secretive to everyone. he never showed any emotion on his face, and never showed any bodily expressions in any way except when he was in extreme anguish. the setting that the story took place in was quite interesting.
