You learned about love among mortals and immortals, and mortal to mortal love, but there is no greater love than that of Odysseu
s and Penelope. What about the story of the Odyssey makes you believe in their love and what makes you question their love? What does their sacred tree upon which their house is centered symbolize about their love? Consider that Odysseus spent extended and intimate periods of time with Calypso and Circe, while Penelope remained loyal to him. Does that make him less loyal, or are his liaisons a reflection of ancient Greek culture? In the Odyssey, Odysseus visits Achilles in the Underworld. Discuss how Achilles feels about his choice now that he is in the Underworld. In the Telemachy (first four books of the Odyssey), Homer describes several united couples, such as Menelaus and Helen, and Nestor and his wife, in contrast to Penelope and the suitors. Why does he spend so much time retelling Agamemnon’s fate over the course of Odysseus’ travels? In the end of the Odyssey, Odysseus is disguised as a beggar. Is this really a disguise? What makes Odysseus a hero? Why is his goddess protector Athena and not Ares?
My undertsanding is that the reason why Penelope and Odysseus are so in love is because of their relationship's strength and their knowledge of each other. The sacred tree represents the unbreakable and immortal love upon the couple and even could say that some gods will help them. Circe was a sorceress who was a distraction to Odysseus and Calypso, the daughter of the Titan Atlas, was banished to an island where she will have to tend to lost or injured heroes. And after she has tened to them for a period of time, she will never be able to see them again as they will never be able to find Calypso's island again. Deep inside Odysseus's heart, his feelings have never changed about Penelope as he carved that sacred tree into the bed. This shows that Odysseus had liaisons that represented ancient Greek culture. Odysseus's guardian god was Athena because despite Odysseus being very strong in combat, his mind was much sharper allowing him to outwit his enemies like how he did with the suitors. His beggar disguise only hid his body but didnt clearly disguise his personality, traits, and etc. Odysseus is a hero because he has sometimes been selfless and has an amazing amount of courage. He also fought in the Trojan Wars while having the wisdom and intellett of a general. Overall Odysseus is a hero because his feats, his story, and his actions have truly proven how much of a hero he was. He also never looked for fame.

It would actually depend on how the story would actually be depicted in this case. The verbs would then be how this man was describing this other man, and due to this, this would then be the way that this could have been the way that this would then be "intended".
