The Odyssey, attributed to the ancient Greek poet Homer, is one of the two major epic poems of ancient Greece, alongside The Iliad, likely composed in the late 8th or early 7th century BCE. Emerging from an oral tradition, it reflects the values, mythology, and societal structures of the Archaic Greek world, blending historical echoes of the Bronze Age with fictional elements. Set after the Trojan War, the poem follows Odysseus’s ten-year journey home to Ithaca, weaving tales of divine intervention, heroic endurance, and human cunning. Its composition likely occurred during a period of cultural and political transition in Greece, with the rise of city-states and increased maritime exploration, which shaped its themes of navigation, hospitality, and identity. Passed down orally before being written, The Odyssey draws on earlier myths and folktales, its narrative depth and universal themes ensuring its enduring influence on Western literature.
