Can you pleeeease help me with any of these questions from the Odyssey?
Remember to correctly cite any sources you use from the internet in your text and at the bottom of your paper, and include your MLA heading. As a review of Book XII, answer the following essay question in 200 words: 1. Show through events in Book XII that Odysseus is truly an epic hero. Answer the following questions in 5-7 complete sentences: 2. What does Poseidon do to the people of Scheria after they help Odysseus return home? What is King Alcinoos’ plan to appease Poseidon; will it work? 3. How does Athena disguise Odysseus? Where does she tell him to go after they store his treasures in the cave? 4. Support the following statement: Odysseus is not afraid to question Athena and the methods she is using to help him. 5. In what ways is the gaffer’s (Odysseus’) fictional story of his life similar to the truth of Odysseus’ life? 6. Why does Eumaios not believe that Odysseus will return? How is this situation an example of dramatic irony?
