The Princess at the River
THE ODYSSEY translated by Robert Fitzgerald
1. Describe Naisikaa. What assistance does she lend Odysseus?
2. How does Athena intervene to insure Odysseus will get help from Nausikaa? Cite several cases of intervention.
3. Among the Greeks, how does one beg a great favor of another? When does this happen with Odysseus, and what does this reveal of his character?
