Some writing assignment ideas for The Odyssey....

These are taken from Teaching Literature in Grammar Grades and High School:
"Incidents can be retold, conversations between characters can be imagined; scenes described; matters of policy argued. Paris may be contrasted with the type of man a boy should admire; Helen the flirt, contrasted with the ideal woman. Home life, as seen in Hector's home, may be pictured."
