While reading the books 1-5 of the Odyssey, make sure to underline any lines or passages that strike you as peculiar. Staying away from interpretation or drawing any conclusions, simply note the details of your underlined passages: key terms, definitions of words you dont recognize, patterns or correspondences you find within the passage, etc. Write a 300-500 word , first quoting the lines or passage youve chosen and then sharing your observations.
