Odysseus (; Greek: , , dysseús [odysseús]), also known by the Latin variant Ulysses (US: , UK: ; Latin: Ulysss, Ulixs), is a legendary Greek king of Ithaca and the hero of Homer's epic poem the Odyssey. Odysseus also plays a key role in Homer's Iliad and other works in that same epic cycle. * Son of Laërtes and Anticlea, husband of Penelope and father of Telemachus, Odysseus is renowned for his intellectual brilliance, guile, and versatility (polytropos), and is thus known by the epithet Odysseus the Cunning (Greek: or mtis, "cunning intelligence"). He is most famous for his nostos or homecoming, which took him ten eventful years after the decade-long Trojan War. |
