Throughout Homer's account of his return from Troy to Ithaca, Odysseus demonstrates courage and persistence as he strives to journey home. For example when he had no choice but to believe what Cadmus was telling him, Cadmus she is the daughter of Ino who was once human “Now do as I say- you’re in no position to refuse: Take off those clothes and abandon your raft to the winds will” (5.345-355). Odysseus was really courages to listen to Cadmus and to trust her word that he will not be drowned by abandoning his raft. He also went up against Poseidon and got into the raft and tried to get home. Another example of Odysseus’s determination is when his good friend Menelaus told a story of how Odysseus did something very brave
