The odyssey is one of my favorite books. So I definitely got you on this one. I’ll put it into my own words. But if you want to be even more sure I’d rewrite it in a way your teacher will think it’s you.


In book 12 of the Odyssey, they start off with Circe tells Odysseus about the sirens, how they lure boatmen into the sea and based off of their songs they sing. She goes on to tell him to use beeswax in their ears so they don’t die. A great gesture from a lady who turned his crew into pig and I right. But then she tells him about the two monsters they’ll encounter on their sail. Circe explained to him about how he should choose the side of the Scylla instead of Charybdis. Where you can always lose a handful of men instead of losing the whole ship. The day comes and they go on their sail, Odysseus decided he didn’t want to tell his crew about the monsters or the sirens so they didn’t worry. But Odysseus does what Circe says, and just loses 6 men. They finally arrived at the island, and all men were hungry and tired. Odysseus told them and they agreed to not eat the cattle. But, they became trapped on the island for a month, and they crewmen betrayed Odysseus and ate the cattle. Helios (the sun god) was extremely angry over the fact they killed some of the cattle. The men decided to continue to eat the cattle which enraged Helios. So he decided to ask the gods to do something about it. But the whole time they were on the island. Nothing happened. The crewmen finally left the island, and then a huge storm came apon them. Which then pushed their boat along to the monster who created whirlpools. Odysseus had just barely saved himself.




So it’s long but I that’s my summary, if you want any more summaries on the book for the class definitely ask me and I’ll gladly help. This is one of my favorite books :)

Which is the best behavior style to use in conflict situations
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Companies today are expanding the role of teams in the workplace in an effort to empower employees and improve organizational effectiveness. The more we try to work as a team, the more important it becomes to recognize that people exhibit different behavioral styles. I use the term “behavioral style”, purposely avoiding the terms “personality” or “attitude”, because unless we are psychiatrists or psychologists, we are not qualified to evaluate such things. All that we can see and deal with is a person’s behavior.

There are four major behavioral styles: analytical, amiable, driver and expressive. Please note that I am using an extreme simplification of each particular style. It is doubtful that all people of a particular behavioral style exhibit all of the characteristics portrayed.

How are Zeus and Athene similar in The Iliad of Homer?
olga_2 [115]

First of all Zeus has no mother.In this sense he is like Athene because she was born from his forehead and has no mother either.She is the godess of wisdom and on many ocassions Zeus is sought for advice on the same matter.Both are corageous and wise.Zeus seems to have this ability to procreate and Athene is also godd at giving birth to inventions useful for men.Also they are the older gods together with Dionysious.She acts on her own initiative without asking Zeus and the god, in turn acts according to his will without asking any other.Both usually work together and are the most powerful  of the gods.
