Answer:

The epithets presented create the effect of showing Odysseus as someone capable of terrible things.

Explanation:

Odisseu is the hero of "Odisseia" a Greek epic that tells the adventures of this hero who tries to return home and meet the family he hasn't seen in years. As is common in Greek stories, heroes have several flaws in character and it is no different with Odysseus.

Although these character flaws are an important feature of his character, the epithets presented are created to show how Odysseus was feared by those who stood in his way, showing that he was capable of doing very bad things.

Anyone wanna write a short expository paragraph about why turtles have shells?
castortr0y [4]
Shells evolved from ribs. ... Turtles and other shelled creatures use shells like shields to protect themselves from predators, or animals that hunt them. Turtles probably needed a shield on their backs and stomachs because they faced predators in the ocean from both above and below.
