Describe how homer develops odysseus’s character throughout the passage. then, analyze how his characterization of odysseus affects the way the audience relates to the character.

Homer portrays Odysseus as both a brains and brands kind of guy. He is both physically adept as well as very intelligent and good with quick thinking in high pressure situations. But he also can be very foolish. For example when he taunts the Cyclops Pholyfemus. Odysseus is a well developed character that is easily relatable to. You either wish you could be him or loathe him.
 Hope this is helpful!
