The changes and developments in Odysseus' character are an essential part of the story. All throughout his journey, he's presented with all kinds of adverse situations that lead him to adapt his personal qualities in order to overcome them and succeed.
We see this in the harm that pride causes getting in the way of his plan to surpass Polyphemus; after which he starts to become more resiliant and focused. Also in the hopelessness he felt trapped on Calypso's island; which after the escape injected him with a tremendous will-power that would lead him back home, as well as a renewed sense of pride in his own intelligence and abilities.
Hope this helps!

Which lines from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?
A. Ringed by the tall brick walls Semíramis had built—so we are told.
B. If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe.
C. The wall their houses shared had one thin crack, which formed when they were built and then was left
D. When first light had banished night's bright star-fires from the sky and sun had left the brine-soaked meadows dry
The answer to this question is B. "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe"
Explanation:
In literature, characterization involves using details to explain the traits of characters, this includes their personality, physical traits, qualities, among others. This literary device can be seen in the excerpt "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe" because, in this, the narrator describes Thisbe, who is one main character of the story. Also, the narrator focuses on one important trait of this character, which is her greater charm that according to the narrator could only be found in Thisbe.
