Ulysse et ses compagnons, mosaïque du musée du Bardo à Tunis Cependant Hermès Cyllénien rassemble les âmes des prétendants ; il tient en ses mains une belle baguette d’or, dont il peut à son gré fermer les yeux des hommes, ou les arracher au sommeil : il s’en sert pour conduire les âmes ; celles-ci le suivent avec un léger frémissement. L’âme d’Agamemnon répondit en ces mots : « Ah !
Odyssey Lesson Plans Lesson Plans These lesson plans were designed to teach the Odyssey to 9th grade honors students. Teaching the Odyssey is an "Odyssey" in the work of teaching and requires dedication, determination, and some of the versatility one finds in Odysseus. A teacher should keep in mind that the Odyssey is comprised of twenty-four books or chapters. These "books" give students a view of a different culture and this vantage point enables them to get a new perspective on their own culture. For some reason students tend to be more open toward different cultures in the past than in the present. Completing the Odyssey helps build students' self-esteem although they may be intimidated by the task at the beginning. Along with taking notes, students also need to be taught how to use their notes to support their answers. Parents of my honors students have supported this ambitious unit. Samples of assignments are included in these lesson plans. Beginning the Odyssey: First Assignment: Book three test: 1.

Random House Academic Resources Guide Contents: Note to Teachers Preparing to read For in-class discussion: I. Comprehension II. For further study Expanding your knowledge: I. Note to teachers This teacher's guide is keyed to the Robert Fitzgerald translation of The Odyssey. Little is certain when it comes to the origins of The Odyssey or its partner epic, The Iliad, the prequel, we would now call it, to The Odyssey in the legendary story of the Greek expedition to reclaim Helen from the city of Troy. There must have been many signal events, many great moments in the history of epic before The Iliad and The Odyssey achieved the forms in which we know them, but two appear, in retrospect, to have been supremely significant. The legendary campaign against Troy took ten years. The other signal moment in the development of the two Homeric poems seems to have fallen in the eighth century B.C.E., for reasons that are hard to pin down. For how long, no one can say.

Les origines d'Ulysse I- La doxa homérique Dans l'Iliade et l'Odyssée, Ulysse est systématiquement nommé Λαερτιάδης, fils de Laërte. L'Odyssée précise ses origines : A/ Au chant XVI, Télémaque esquisse devant son père, qu'il n'a pas encore reconnu, une rapide généalogie de sa lignée paternelle (v.117-120) : Le chant XXIV précise un peu la biographie du père d'Ulysse : il a été roi de Céphallénie et a pris Néricos, une citadelle au bord de la mer (v.377-378) Au moment où Ulysse rentre enfin en Ithaque, le vieux roi s'est retiré et ne participe plus aux affaires. B/ Quant à la mère d'Ulysse, c'est au cours de son voyage au royaume des morts que son fils la retrouve (XI, 84-86) : A propos de ce personnage d'Autolycos, grand-père maternel d'Ulysse, le chant XIX de l'Odyssée donne trois renseignements extrêmement importants (v.392 sqq) : a) C'est lui qui a transmis à son petit-fils une bonne part de son astuce : b) C'est le grand-père qui a donné son nom à son petit-fils : II- Ulysse fils de Sisyphe

Lesson Plans and Activities Advertisements - by Cori Nalipinski I teach a full quarter of Greek/Roman Mythology to 11th and 12th graders. I started two years ago and have tried to keep my projects interesting to my students and to show them how mythology is relevant to their world today. After studying the different gods, goddesses and their symbols, I have them do a presentation on Mythology in Advertisement. They need to go through magazines, phone books, etc. and pick out ads that relate to mythology. For example, Nike for the goddess Nike.
