The Odyssey:. The Cyclops. Odysseus and his men have been sailing at sea trying to get home after the victorious Trojan War, and have been thrown off course by the Great South Sea, taking uncommon routes to return home, following Zeus' will. During this section, they have stopped at an island home to the Cyclopes, a man fathered by Poseidon, god of the oceans. Cyclopes have brutal and wild characteristics, and are uncivilized, one-eyed, cannibals. Cyclopes have tremendous strength and follow a routine lifestyle, barely interacting with the other Cyclopes of the island and treating strangers disrespectfully. The Cyclops encountered in this section is called Polyphemus, and to solve future conflict with Polyphemus, Odysseus uses gifts received from Euanthes' son, Maron, from Apollo's grove in Ismarus, which consist of talents(coins), wine bowls, and most importantly, fine liquor. Ismarus was the island that Odysseus and his men had previously visited, as in their journey they visit numerous islands and take on a variety of tasks, ultimately challenged by their fatal flaws. As for Odysseus, his fatal flaw is his arrogance, and need to recognize and boast about his successes.. Rivu Ghosh, Nina Carbone, Emily Berberich and . Rebecca Schmidt . The Lotus-Eaters: Summary. .
