Synopsis

In this lecture, we discuss (a) the differences between the Cyclopes and Phaiakians, though they descend from the same place (Hypereia) and god (Poeseidon); (b) we witness the inhospitality of Polyphemos and his great hubris; and (c) we see the cunning planning of Nobody (Odysseus), but also a rare moment of recklessness from him and its costly consequences. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support
