One of the greatest story ever told. In Iliad we saw Achilles downfall as he was consumed by Rage making his tragic fate decided by the gods. In Odyssey we witness Odysseus courage by breaking the shackles of fate set by the gods and weaved his own destiny to return to his home. Homer is by far the best story teller ever.

I'm watching this video all because of Epic: The Musical, which is loosely based on the Odyssey.

Odysseus proved himself the wisest of the heroes of Troy by choosing the right woman and conducting himself honorably. Penelope, Clytemnestra and Helen were cousins. Helen was unfaithful, Clytemnestra not only that but murdered her husband to run off with a lover. Meanwhile Penelope did all she could to hold Ithaca together while faithfully waiting for her husband's return.

Once again you have created a video of epic proportions, anyone with even the slightest of interest in Greek mythology will be nothing less than captivated by these video doc's, with their apprehension of detail relayed by excellent narration supported by awesome visual and sound score.Thankyou.

You forgot the part where Odysseus reunited with his father, and then it turns out that the suitors were the villagers' sons. And then the families formed an angry mob seeking vengeance on Odysseus for killing their sons. So Odysseus and his father (Laertes)had to fend off the families of the dead suitors

he was great, but he wasn't really a hero...a women left her husband to be with someone she wanted(helen even if it was a trick by the gods, but that happened in real life too so, she didn't want menalus but wanted Paris. ) So this guy was called to go over to a foreign war, to get something he had no part in. Just to be lost at sea. Maybe he was a hero to his family after he came back. But he wouldn't have been a hero without that one thing. And that was a selfish thing, so really...how can he even be called a hero? He didn't blind the cyclops to stop him from killing people, he did it to escape. everything he did was selfish

I read the Odyssey in high school. It was among my favorites.

In this story, they mention that the hero Ajax died at sea after the trojan war ended, which is contradictory to what is said in the Iliad where he commited suicide by impaling himself on his sword in front of his companions in the greek camp.

There were two Ajax. "Greater Ajax", Son of Telamon, the one you're talking about, and "Lesser Ajax", Son of Oileus, King of Locris (think of the whole "same name" thing as how in modern day there are many "Johns" out there, especially in the US). Most likely given the names based on their sizes/ages as Greater Ajax was a very large and mighty warrior. Lesser Ajax had the smaller frame and was kind of considered a coward in many ways as he basically only used the bow in the Iliad and was very fast. His forcing himself upon Cassandra during the Fall of Troy is what angered the gods as it was in Athena's Temple as well. Odysseus was the one who caught him in the act and was said to be the only one who wanted to stone him. Most of the other kings said that Lesser Ajax pleaded with Athena and that they would be fine. Odysseus and Agamemnon were said to be the only ones who stayed behind in Troy a little longer to give proper sacrifices to the gods before setting sail. Another little fun fact! During Patroclus' funeral games, Odysseus was very very close to beating him in the footrace but just needed a little luck. He prayed to Athena to give him a burst of power and she did. Not only that, she made Lesser Ajax trip and landed face-first into cow dung! (I think it's Homer's foreshadowing her future dislike of him in a way) Odysseus also got into a tie in the wrestling match against Greater Ajax in the funeral games, which is funny because Greater Ajax was basically the largest man on the Greek's side and Odysseus was more "Medium". Diomedes I believe, was said to be one of the shortest men, which makes it all the cooler that he's such an amazing warrior and literally was fighting gods despite being mortal. He's a literal Short King! (I'm not an expert and sadly most of what we know about the fall of Troy is mostly lost to time, but that's what I know! 😊It's good to do your own research as well!)

@@schmad2048 Thank you for shedding light upon this briefly confusing episode of eponymous heroes. Greater Ajax was omnipresent in the Iliad movie and lesser Ajax was not even mentioned. It is therefore strange that the other heroes were mourning the loss of a character that was not part of the story to begin with, where as their good friend seems to have vanished from their memory. Otherwise, i must say that these two cartoon movies about a monument of epic litterature were quite excellent.

These stories are the old greats but doesn't the narration sound like a text to speech recording?

I like the video, the book was great. Though its weird that the animation goes from one thing to another. Like when Odysseus tied those logs together to make a raft. But next picture he has a boat and not a raft. And that is one gigantic handkerchief lol it's more like a blanket or a cloak than a handkerchief And the Iliad and Odyssey were great books, but how does anyone mistake Odysseus as a hero? He doesn't do anything a hero does, hes only selfish.

But he is, all these characters are. They all have the flaws we learn and adapt from in tragedies like this. Even honorable characters like Hector, Nestor, and Diomedes had their troubles. It's the human experience my guy. The Trojans nor Greeks are the sole good guys, these stories are meant to teach us to make better decisions than out heroes did. Don't look at things in the simple view of good vs bad, especially when it comes to imperfect beings like humans.

i thought the order would be fixed, instead you just reuploaded it in a single video in order of release date and not the order of mythology :(
