Why is Calypso so angry that she has to let Odysseus go?

English
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A: Male gods are allowed to have lovers and goddesses are not.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" tells the journey of the character Odysseus' journey home to Ithaca after almost two decades of being away. His journey also involves an encounter with numerous gods and goddesses, either working alongside him and also at times against him.

Book V of the text shows the messenger of the Gods, Hermes, delivering the news/order of Zeus to the nymph Calypso to release Odysseus. She had no choice but to comply but not before she had delivered an impassioned speech about how goddesses are not allowed to openly have mortal lovers while that isn't the case for the male gods. She complains about the chain of power over the goddesses compared to the gods, even though all are gods in themselves. She questions why the male gods are allowed to have mortal lovers while the female gods are made to surrender their mortal lovers.

Answer:

The play could look more realistic with lots of props and actors/actresses. In a second or third act, one of the characters could propose to another character and get rejected to make the storyline more interesting. Backdrops and music /singing could make it last longer. I would add fun scenery to make the play cooler.
