That there was an epic poet called Homer and that he played the primary part in shaping the Iliad and the Odysseyâso much may be said to be probable. If this assumption is accepted, then Homer must assuredly be one of the greatest of the worldâs literary artists.
The Odyssey is a long narrative poem written by the Greek poet Homer, who (as far as anyone knows) didn't have another name. It is the story of the wanderings of the hero Odysseus (or Ulysses, in the Latin version) on his way home to the island of Ithaca after the Trojan War.
