Elements: Characterization- Sirens weaving a haunting song over the sea we were to shun, she said, and their song. Complecations- Odysseus is having to listen to the Sirens deadly song while not able to fall into temptations.This way, oh turn your bows, Achaea's Glory As all the world alows- Moor and be merry. Internal Conflict- Odysseus has to fight with himself to either fall into the Sirens spell or fight to stay on his path to home. Voices in ardor appealing over the water made me crave to listen, and I tried to say Unite me! to the crew, jerking my bows; but they bent ready to the oars. Suspense- Rather or not Odysseus's men will let him down to go to the Sirens song. Voices in ardor appealing over the water made me crave to listen, and I tried to say Unite me! to the crew, jerking my bows; but they bent ready to the oars. Symbolism- Hid from are dreaming. So all rowed on, until the Sirens dropped under the sea rim, and their sining drwindling away. My faithful company rested on their oars now, peeling off the wax that had laid thick on their ears; than set me free.
The Epic Hero In Odysseus: Odysseus shows hes an epic hero in the story of the Sirens when he puts the wax over the ears if his men he they can't be taunted by the Sirens song. He also had his men tie him to the boat so he won;y be able to get free to fall into the Sirens trap. Odysseus listened to the deadly song of the Sirens having to fight the agonising pain of not getting the chance to be sent free to the welcoming song. From Odysseus resisting temptation, he kept himself and his men safe from death.
THE SIRENS PLOT After leaveing the land of the dead the island of the Sirens had to be passed. The Sirens, who were irresistible women, attracted sailors witht her beautiful songs and the sailors would then get caught in the reefs surounding the island. Which left many ships to be wrecked. Because of this Odysseus had to fill the ears of his crew with was and have them tie him to the mast of the ship. Odysseus struggled and wanted to go towards the sound but his men could not hear the song. They made it through unharmed.
