The answer is: an extended comparison that uses like or as.

An epic simile or Homeric simile is a lengthy (several lines long) comparison between one familiar thing and another less well-known thing or occurrence. It usually makes use of the words “like” or “as” to establish the comparison. The object of the epic simile is to make the reader comprehend the unfamiliar object of the comparison by means of the very simile. They usually appear at moments of turmoil or violence.

List some things you learned about The Odyssey and Odysseus
seraphim [82]

Answer and Explanation:

While reading and after doing some research on "The Odyssey" and its protagonist, Odysseus, it is possible to list some information that has been learned.

First of all, it is important to present, that "The Odyssey" was one of the first poems written in Ancient Greece and is a relevant text until today, which is fantastic to understand the growth and evolution of humanity in literary terms. In addition, it is possible to see that this work presents the concept of "Greek hero" presenting a strong, fearless, courageous man with a strong sense of leadership that is not perfect, but capable of showing flaws and weaknesses. Finally, we can see the family's impotence for Greek society at the time that this work was written, since fidelity to the family is very much addressed throughout history.

In relation to Odysseus, we can see that being an admired man had some disadvantages, such as the need to defend his territory and need to stay away from the family he loves. Odysseus faced many adventures in order to return to his home and family and proved to be a hero, but he has flaws, infidelity, fears and even exaggerated cunning. Odysseus is a very human hero, presenting a strong duality, but always trying to do good for those who deserve it.
